I remember playing a game without graphics. (Does that show my age?) :o You had to ask questions and based on the answer ask another question. Does anyone know what this might be? It would be something like this: You would type in "Turn north". The answer would be "You see a forest of trees and a bridge." Then you would type "Go to the bridge" and it would answer ... "You are at the bridge." I really appreciate the help! :huh:

That's called a text adventure. There were over a thousand text adventures, so you'll have to be a lot more specific. Popular text adventures were the Zork series and Colossal Cave, aka Adventure.
