I don't like the C= Adventures so much because of the parser. Playing some adventures, I had the very same impression. I wonder why they didn't manage to work on a better parser (see my previous reply). Unfortunately, my english is a bit limited. Mine too - still, I guess our English is better than...

I remember in the 80'ties, there were tons of text adventures passing by, many probably no longer archived. Most of those required +16K or even more memory (24K?) so I never got a chance to try them This is interesting, indeed. Is there anyone in this forum having one or more adventures not listed ...

Favourite VIC-20 adventure
Looking at with my collection of VIC text adventures, I was wondering which one you old time VICers like the best. Here's the poll (it will end in one month), so that I know which one to play first :wink: Please note: text adventures only. If you choose "other(s)", specify the title. Thanks!

I think it was more proof of concept than a series of planned conversions. Is there a great demand in converting cartridge games to run with a standard memory expansion? If so, which game(s) are most wanted? Of course there is GREAT demand... With those crazy cart prices getting higher and higher :...

Carts and RAM
Thank you very much Schema! Looks like it's not so simple... I will try and find a switchable RAM module in order to force its RAM in block 5 (or whatever). Could it be an alternative solution to change with a ML monitor the first two bytes to hex 1200, where the user BASIC begins according to the d...

How to make cartridge ROMs work on a real VIC?
Hello everyone. I am new here (have been lurking for a while before) and pretty new to the wonderful world of our beloved VIC. I bought one because I think playing with the real thing is much better than with the emulator :wink: . My problem is about prices of cartridges getting too high - some of t...
