That and lunar lander were the first games I encountered on the PDP-8 back in ancient times. Somebody transliterated them into FOCAL… Possibly downscaled due to memory limitations but it let us all start tinkering and encouraged making our own.
The pre cursor to all out city building games.
Ranks right up there with the classic Old Testament Text Adventure game. You have no boils. You have 100 goats. You have pottage. https://web.archive.org/web/20130704104410/https://old-testa...
