4.0 out of 5 stars Hartnell Teaches game construction basics, December 16, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Creating Adventure Games On Your Computer (Paperback)
Hartnell's book is a good introduction to adventure game construction. While the book focuses on BASIC programming, which wouldn't be a programmer's choice today, it offers sound design techniques for the absolute beginner. I used this book to write my first text-adventure games on my Apple //c. It's one of the few old computer books that I will still occasionally open.

I agree with the other reviewer; though dated, this is an entertaining introduction to writing simple text adventure games in BASIC.
