I know what you mean. There's a few too many fantasy text adventures.

Weesam I hear you. I just have different tastes to you and opinions on what is and isn't a videogame.

The Ice Temple is fairly playable, as is Sweevo's World and Hydrofool. The Dizzy series works quite well, too. It's good for text adventures - that's about all the advice I can offer. :)Great budget releases (not re-releases)Guys I want your opinions on budget games that were not re-released full price titles.

Easily The Hobbit. It took several years for following text adventures to even come close. In fact with all the stuff you could do in the game, text adventure is questionable pigeonhole to put it in; sandbox is probably closer to the mark.The ZX Spectrum Screenshot ChallengeI haven't seen this one posted here yet.
