Parsely Games
Parsely games are based on text adventure games from the late 1970′s and early 1980′s, a time when games came on cassette tapes or floppy disks. But even if you didn’t grow up during that time, you can still enjoy Parsely with friends and family. Just grab one of the available Parsely games, learn how it works and gather a small (or large!) group together for some fun times.
ACTION CASTLE: the original! Medieval adventure
JUNGLE ADVENTURE: pulp thrills
SPOOKY MANOR: supernatural mystery
SPACE STATION: science-fiction survival
Errata
Okay, there are a couple of goofs on Space Station that I need to clear up. The map to the space station is correct but in the room descriptions, a couple of the exits are wrong! The Escape Pod, the Transporter Room and the Shield Generator have incorrect or missing exits in the room description, so go by the map when you’re learning how to run the game. Sorry about that!
