372 - Tomb Raider 4

again that pirate cassette tape that night playing this so those that loved the oracles cave will be familiar with us because by the same offer on the same uh software label so it's on the dorkas software label offer cristoral and he's on the rule game was the predecessor of the oracles cave so it is a text adventure but it's the screen is split so you do have a graphical stimulus of what you're typing in so you see your little man and he's in the you know the castle or the whatever you want to call it and when you say go right you see him walking right you say go up it goes up the ladders and you see or fight the enemy then the metamorphosis creature or the the dragon or the ghost or the zombie or whatever you see all these in real time so it's a it's a non-static what's opposite non-static help me here a kinetic a kinetic adventure you know where it
