The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Author:Bob Chappell
Genres:Adaptation>Literary

Review:

An adaptation of the Douglas Adams radio serial, but not the famous one produced by Infocom. If you're looking for that one, you can find it at douglasadams.com. This one is written in C-64 BASIC and has a two-word parser. This is probably the only game I've seen that's written in the first person plural.
