Amazing Text Fun Game Engine 1.1 review
DownloadDo you fondly recall hours upon hours of Zork or Adventure in Humongous Cave? Does hearing the word "Grue" result in a welling up of emotion (mostly frustration)? Can you run down the proper action sequence for all of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy from memory? Well then you are probably a huge geek.

Well then you are probably a huge geek. But that's ok, so are we. Welcome home.
In fact, the programming team at ATF has decided that it's time for "interactive fiction" to get a much-needed shot in the arm. Games today are too full of imagery, animation, and action. All of this really draws away from the most important aspects of a game: the plot and the challenge. In order to effect change, we've written a game engine for text-based games.
What's a game engine, you ask? Well it's interpreter for a game: A game developer writes a game with certain rules and behaviors, and the game engine decodes that game and presents it to you, the player! No more pictures, no more motion; just you, your keyboard, and the game.
Amazing Text Fun Game Engine is an interactive fiction game engine.
