| 2024-05-14 |  | | It would be nice if this was available on more devices. I have been looking for a good port of this game for decades and still have not found one. I had a copy on a 5.25" floppy that you booted to, but that is no longer playable. |
| 2024-01-31 |  | | This is a blast from the past. I used to play this on a PDP11 in the late 1970s. It will be good to explore the cave again if I can remember how to get into it. |
| 2022-12-04 |  | | Pro: same game I remember and loved. Con: same game I remember and hated. LOL. I like the nostalgia but a bit of modernization wouldn't be bad. (Come on, why won't you accept "take ax" instead of "take axe"?) Maybe you could offer a classic version and an updated version (like one that will accept "take all" for the items in the building). |
| 2022-11-23 |  | | I'm still playing..it's become personal! 😬😬 UPDATE: refuse the walk thru.2/3/22. started over. One of the highlights of our miserable COVID time. Stay Healthy friends!! Can't TY enough for the years of fun this game has given us. Rock On..The Struggle is Real! 11-22!! |
| 2022-09-05 |  | | I have loved this game since I first played it on an Apple computer in the '90s (it was already old then of course). Just one issue with this version: first time I played it after downloading, I decided to try out the "brief" feature where it gives only the name of each room as you enter it, not the full description. Now I can't figure out how to turn that off and have it give full description again! It's driving me crazy that I have to keep typing "look" to see which directions I can go in. |
| 2022-05-15 |  | | Downloaded and played with my two boys under 10 years old, they were hooked. And me! Game plays great, thanks for making it available 👍 |
| 2022-01-12 |  | | This game has wonderful balance, player desperation playing a fair part... Still have most of the map etched into my memory. Thanks! FWIW I back-ported the PDP-11 version to the DEC-10 (5 letter words ;-) and even added a whole new section back in the early 80s... |
| 2021-11-25 |  | | Game needs more recognition than this. One of those kind of legendary games that requires a good amount of thinking. Keep up the good work!! |
| 2021-05-14 |  | | I know this game is all about reading, but no need to force potential players to agree to terms for a game that is potentially older than themselves. Never have I ever had to agree to terms to play Colossal Cave Adventure on any system before and I am not going to start now. Thank you, but no thank you. |
| 2021-02-22 |  | | no instructions can't figure out how to play the game at all. You might want to put a help file in the game because it's not very clear and it's not working correctly. |
