Well Dark, I will have fun trying them. I registered today with Audio
games,
and looked at their extensive list of games. I am having a hard time
deciding where to start first. Christmas Whoopass looks fast and fun. I
read
your description.

Hi Paulette.
it's a little difficult to suggest other types of games, since I don't
know
what you may like.
For instance, there are now audio games just using sound in catagories
from
arcade and fast action, to horror shooter, to racing, rpg and stratogy.
There are traditional card, puzzle or board games, going up to and
including
online ones with multiplayer features right up to high competitive online
poker or hearts with full tournaments (though luckily not with real
money).
There are online brouser games that let you build and control an empire,
and
gamebooks which function slightly like if games, but without typing
commands.there are brouser rpgs and stratogy games too that play with a
screen reader.
That's indeed why I gave you the links to www.audiogames.net and
www.pcsgames.net, sinse really the only way to determine whether you might
like something is to give it a try, and even the games that are sold
commercially have demos to try.
Indeed, by trying games in genres that I myself wouldn't normally try,
I've
found some fun experiences.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.

Hi Dark,
That is the only type of game that I have ever played. Would you suggest
another one that is, well, different? Thanks.

Hi Paulette.
the link I gave was to the page on the Ifiction site where the adventure
game started, along with several others.
That is a site that lets you play various if titles online, so is worth
searching if you enjoy interactive fiction, ----- though I must admit I
tend
to prefer having the games downloaded myself and running with
interpreters
like winfrtoz or wintads since the sites don't seem as quick at taking
your
commands.
then again, i don't really play much if anymore, since I got sick of
games
with illogical puzzles, so the Ifiction site might have changed sinse I
last
tried it.
Glad you found it useful though.
all the best,
dark.

Hi Dark,
I went there and actually found the game, just like it used to be,
except
that you now have to use edit boxes. But that isn't a problem. I did
have
to
do a bit of searching to find the site, though. The link you gave me did
not
take me to the adventure game. It talked about an elevator game and also
had
the adventure link. So, for anyone who wants it, here is the link to the
actual Colossal Cave Adventure game:
http://www.ifiction.org/games/playz.php?cat=&game=1&mode=html
That elevator game looks interesting. Thanks again for your help.
Paulette
