Adventex is a simple interactive fiction (text adventure) game with its own adventure system. The adventure is defined by a couple of json files. The game is playable at thoster.net.
It starts with a demo adventure (kind of an escape room game) and a tutorial.
You need node.js and npm
First you need to install the npm dependencies:
npm install
You can serve adventex locally:
npm run serve
or build it with:
npm run build
Unit tests only work with a real browser. Start them like this:
npm run serve-tests
If you want to learn playing text adventures, go to "options" and hit "tutorial". This is what you get if you enter help:
Most of the time, typing something like verb object works. Example: open door.
You can go to a possible direction typing go (direction).
You can examine the room or any object typing examine (object). Look around with look. More complex sentences are possible, example: open box with crowbar.
Type help verbs to get a list of possible verbs.
