PORTING An ADVENTURE
Ramsbottom Smith And The Quest For The Yellow Spheroid is the first game in 30 years from venerable adventure game developer John Wilson of Zenobi Software. It’s a text adventure originally developed for the Spectrum, but, with help from Gareth Pitchford, the magic of Gilsoft’s PAWS adventure creation tool and the CP/M operating system, it’s been converted to run on a range of machines including the Amstrad CPC and SAM Coupé.
