Crypt of Medina and other text adventure games
Question:
Hello Andy,
1. Have you ever heard of a game called Crypt of Medina?
2. Do you know where one might find a copy that will work on a modern PC computer? (the original was for an apple pc on 5.25″ disk)
Of course answering no to the first question will mean no to the second… Anyway, if you can help I’d appreciate it.
Thanks

Answer:
Your highness,
No, I’m sorry I haven’t ever heard of Crypt of Medina. I did a little research and wasn’t able to find much information on it, let alone a playable version. This might be one that is lost to the ages.
Just the same, I’ll post your question and this answer. Perhaps one of my readers will see your question and be able to help out.
In the meantime, if you’d like to play text adventure games besides Crypt of Medina, check out this article about text adventures and interactive fiction.
It has instructions for how to install and play text adventures on your own PC, Mac or device like a PalmOS handheld.
