I have loved computers since my Timex Sinclair 1000 in 1982. Then my #C64 that I got for Xmas in 1983, which I still use. #Commodore64 #Commodore #RetroComputing #retrogaming #retrogames

Here is the Planetfall photos/description on page 5 of the Infocom Passport 32-page ad. Planetfall is my 2nd favorite Infocom game only behind Zork I which is my favorite. Anyone else LOVE this game. Remember Floyd. Anyone play the squeal named Stationfall. #Infocom #C64 #Commodore64

I LOVE this write up of the Zork trilogy done by Infocom on page 14 of their 20-page 1987 product catalog titled "Infocom The Master Story Tellers". Did you play these 3 text games. If so, what memories do you have of these 3 Zork games. Did you finish all three. #C64 #Commodore64 #Infocom

BUREAUCRACY was released 38 years ago on Feb 12, 1987. Written by Douglas Adams. It's Infocom's 24th text adventure. You must confront a series of hurdles from a recent change of address. The game monitors your BP, and if it gets too high you die and the game ends. #commodore #C128 #Amiga #Infocom

Safe Zone is a 2025 game for the #C64 by Frank Abbing. It's an Arabic-style board game that is between Halma and a sliding puzzle. You play against a computer opponent. The aim of the game is to move your 8 pieces within the inner 4x4 spaces. frank-abbing.itch.io/safe-zone #Commodore64 #Commodore

Good morning friends. My wife made me a C64 coaster using a piece of slate and her Xtool laser. Now I have a proper place to sit my C64 coffee cup! #C64 #Commodore #Commodore64
