Daggerwind Scrolls is a traditional 1st/3rd person CRPG dungeon crawl game written using C# for Mac OS X. Its a fan based project inspired by 'The Elder Scrolls Daggerfall', Bethesda Softworks 1996. This project isn't an attempt to faithfully recreate 'Daggerfall', but the game experience, (or more to the point the way that experience was. The window on Mac OS X will resize smoothly, and can be run in full screen mode on Mac OS 10.7-10.8. Fixed a bug that prevented hidden pit traps from being permanently discovered when you fell through them. Fixed a bug that could cause allies and occasionally players and items to fall through the ground when activating extending bridges. Of all the dungeon crawlers currently in development, the one I look forward to the most is Stellar Terminus. Here's the brief in the creator's own words, which I couldn't have summarized better: ST is a first-person, hard sci-fi dungeon crawler set at the heat death of the universe. You explore an endless sea of lifeless planets and abandoned. Awakened from deep slumber you found yourself in a city destined to be devoured by Demon King of Death. There was only one road leading outside of it, straight into the dungeon entrance. The gates were open. A terrifying place where blood is steadily sucked out of you and eventually you cannot escape death's embrace.

Welcome to another installment of Geeky Friday. Today, unfortunately, it seems we’ve reached a …

And so begins a few hours of wasted time. Well, at least for those of us who grew up in the “good old days” of computer gaming, it may. 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.

Over time, as you explore and solve puzzles, more and more of the world is revealed to you, and additional objectives become apparent. It may sound quaint and outdated in today’s world of ultra-3D high-res games such as Doom3 and Myst, but text-based games can be fun in their own way, given a chance.

To play dunnet, all you need is a Terminal window and an open mind—you’d be amazed at what kinds of images your mind can draw, given the basic descriptions provided by the game itself. Launch Terminal (in /Applications: Utilities) and type (or copy and paste!) this, followed by the Return key:

emacs -batch -l dunnet

That’s right; dunnet is sort of hiding inside of the emacs text editor. When the game starts up, you’ll see the output above (excluding the get shovel bit—consider that your first clue). From this point on, you’re really on your own, but here are a few basic commands to help get you started:

• 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.

There’s no way this will replace modern gaming, but if you’re umm, of my vintage, or just want to know what we considered leading edge back in the day, give this a shot.
