Mad Venture walkthrough/longplay (Apple II - Micro lab)
4Mad Venture (http://adventure.if-legends.org/Micro_Fun.html) was a text adventure game published by Micro lab in 1981 for the Apple ][. It was considered by many as a funny, yet tough adventure game, as the player must collect 15 treasures and in less than 185 moves. In order to truly win the game, the player must also visit locations that generate points in order to achieve the maximum 400 points.
I believe it was the first adventure game from Dale Johnson, who would went on to create several fun adventure games such as the Masquerade.
Hope you enjoy the walkthrough!
The long play is done by Smartadventurer, a program that I wrote to automate the playing for vintage Apple ][ games. You can follow the project here: https://vinniethelung.wordpress.com/tag/smartadventurer/
