Hunter, in Darkness
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hunter, in Darkness is a 1999 interactive fiction game by Andrew Plotkin, written in Inform. It won the "Best Individual Puzzle" and "Best Setting" categories in the 1999 XYZZY Awards, and came in eighth overall in the 1999 Interactive Fiction Competition.
Inspired by Gregory Yob's seminal 1972 computer game Hunt the Wumpus, Hunter, in Darkness expands greatly upon the earlier work. As in Hunt the Wumpus, the player's goal is to locate and defeat the titular beast within its cave. Hunter, in Darkness, however, describes the cave in much greater detail than the earlier work.
