Westfront PC: The Trials of Guilder by Paul Allen Panks Fantasy, RPG 1993 Web Site

About the Story

I wish to discuss with you the nature of my game “Westfront PC: The
Trials of Guilder”. It has been called a cross between Zork,
Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Star Wars and several online MUDs
(Multi-User Dungeons). I am very humbled by such a mixture and am
warmed to the heart by the kind praise and words of encouragement.
Westfront PC (or simply, “WFPC”) is not meant to be a traditional text
adventure game. It was inspired by a host of adventure games, from
Zork to The Pawn to online MUDs and even some Graphical Adventure
games. It is an odd mixture to say the least. But the truth of the
matter is this: Westfront PC is half adventure game, half an inside
joke and the rest eccentrically fun nonsense.
The game itself has 1,728 “rooms” spread across four different
continents. But the fun of the game is not so much exploring the rooms
as it is discovering new items and solving the various puzzles and
quests around the game.
