Back in the early days of gaming, text adventures and interactive fiction were regarded as experiences for more grown-up, mature players, eschewing simplistic arcade-style action for cerebral, imaginative play. Moonmist from Infocom, published in 1986 and seen here in its Atari 8-bit incarnation, is an introductory-level adventure that can be solved in an evening, but there's a few interesting things about it well worth looking at.

Played on The400 Mini with a USB keyboard, and the "feelies" printed out from The Museum of Adventure Game History at https://www.mocagh.org/loadpage.php?g...
