If the above doesn't look familiar to you, it's probably because you're quite a bit younger than I am :). For those who aren't familiar, before we had color screens, hard drives, or anything resembling OS X, we had text-based computer games.

As you can see from the quotes above, all you need to play a text-based game are a keyboard, a screen, and an active imagination! This particular game is called dunnet, and it's included with every copy of OS X—I'll tell you how to launch it in just a bit.

In text-based games, you interact with the game through a simple language parser, using two-word commands like get shovel, dig rock, and attack bear. You can also move about by giving compass directions such as East (or just E). Based on what you tell the game to do, you'll see a new output blurb appear, describing the result of your action, your new location, etc.

  • help – Some background on the game, as well as basic commands and objectives.
  • inventory – Tell you what you're carrying.
  • save and restore – Saves and restores the game, so you can remember to go eat occasionally.
  • quit – Quit the game.
