HI,
I think Dreamlands is great as it is, I meant an update to the actual adventure.

Re: Greetings from Wales
I have considered it - I've got as far as a few sketches of locations and puzzles a couple of years back, but not much more than that. So... "maybe" I guess. 
My sister is a novelist (we laugh that she's a best seller, as technically she was, briefly, in Canada). Again, a few years back, we toyed with the idea of me doing the text adventure version of one of her books as she retains the rights to any computer game versions. My work got in the way. Perhaps one day.
At the moment I am writing a Python based sequel to my online game so that is taking up any spare hours I have for coding. Not sure whether it will ever see the light of day.

Hi Rich,
Are you still in contact with the authors of MacSporran's Lament, Dave and Ann Watson? I have found the game+manual which I bought from you/CGH Services back in the day. It would be great to get their permission to release it as freeware.

Hi
Sorry.
Not in touch with anyone from those days, unless they're on here or Facebook.
Agree it would be cool to put those adventures back in circulation.

Do you recall whereabouts in Scotland they were from? Might help to track them downRichardCGH wrote: Mon Apr 22, 2024 7:47 pm Hi
