Lost Infocom Games Discovered

Post by Analog-X64 »

"Archivists at Waxy.org have gotten a copy of the backup of Infocom's shared network drive from 1989 and are piecing together information about games that were never released. In particular, there is the sequel to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy called Milliways: The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, and there are two playable prototypes of it. And yes, they have playable downloads available."

The bit I found most interesting was when Magnetic Scrolls got involved.

Yes, that part was nasty... First I thought MS stood for Microsoft and went WTF?! :lol:
Sad, how the whole thing came down. I still love the humour.
