This is an original story from Michael Crichton (famous for Jurassic Park) back
when text adventures were attracting major authors. As an agent of the NSRT
(National Satellite Resources Technology), you happen to be the first witness
of the sad fate suffered by all members of an archeological expedition sent to
uncover the fabled Lost City of Chak. Apparently, the whole expedition was
murdered by a tribe of cannibals. And guess what? Now YOU are the one who has
to travel to the Amazon to uncover the mystery. And that's only the beginning
of your problems. Mysterious people are trying to kill you. Professor Benekker,
an expert on the Amazon who was supposed to accompany you, turns up dead. As a
replacement, you'll end up with his highly-intelligent (but highly-obnoxious)
parrot, Paco. Be prepared to face wild animals, savage tribes, guerillos, and
even a live volcano, as you make your way to the remnants of the expedition
and the Lost City. The parser is a bit weak but the story is involving. |
