    Some of the early text adventures are quite nice to play now as they can be speeded up via emulation. Invincible Island, Urban Upstart and Ship of Doom stick out in my mind.

    Thanks bbulldog and everyone else, the adventure in question was indeed Urban Upstart " Escape from Scarthorpe ". Its nearly been 20 years since I last played the game, so it should bring back a few memories.
