My favorite Scott Adams adventure is Ghost Town. I just loved the "feel"
of the game, staying up late at night trying to solve it's riddles. Who
still remembers the red herring "purple worm"? :)

I'm going to have to revisit that some day.

BTW, Scott Adams can be reached on the internet. Do a web search on
"Adventure International" and "Scott Adams" and his website and e-mail
address will turn up.
