The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy is a classic Interactive Fiction game. Though divergent from the source material, the main characters, locations, and concepts are here. Unlike the book, death can come quickly if Arthur fails to observe his surroundings, collect inventory, talk to people, and consult the Guide. Don't panic!

Review plasmasnake 4/5 · Jul 7, 2020

This was a fun retelling of the book, but I had to use the guide for most of the puzzles. Can they re-release these using modern natural language processing?
