Dear Future Gamer,

Your letters on text-based adventures have been the highpoints of a very good magazine for weeks now. When I was but a naive lad of, ohh, 10, I used to visit my technologically-enhanced friend's house to play on the newest releases.

The fun that could be had playing one particular game (I cannot remember the name) was endless. Locked inside a cave by a big monster we tried a variety of things. He was roasting some deer, so we asked, "What was for dinner?" to which he replied, "You" flung us out the cage and ate us.

After a few attempts we got thoroughly disenchanted-off and wrote, not without feeling, "Flipping well flip off" to which the in-game voice replied, "Now then you wouldn't like your mum hearing you say words like that," hilarious, well to a 10-year-old anyway.

This letter has been slightly, b*****d well subbed for language. Sub

FG: Lawrence, believe it or not, I remember exactly the game you're talking about. I haven't got a clue what it was called either. Anyone out there know?
