I used to play Larn for hours and hours, waiting for the phone
to ring when I did a lot of customer service (not a lot of
customers and stuff didn't break all that often... was a nice
job).
Somewhere on a 16MT9, I have Larn sources. I also probably have
them on an Amiga floppy - I ported it to the Amiga a long time
ago, text mode only, no graphics.
Fun game. It was even winnable.
There's also UltraLarn, an unauthorized patch to Larn that plays
like a "Monty Haul" Dungeon with character classes (including the
class "Rambo" who has the Lance of Death and all "3"s for stats).
