This is #2 in the series of Scott Adams adventures and
his wife Alexis wrote this one too. The source code for Pirate's Adventure
was published in the December 1980 issue of Byte Magazine. It consisted
of a Basic program that implemented the "adventure virtual machine"
and several thousand numbers, bytes of data that formed the "virtual
machine language instructions" for the actual Pirate's Adventure. After
this, adventure writers started to figure out how the game was created
and started to create their own adventures using the same design. The
same thing had happened before when the source code for Dog Star Adventure
was published a while before. You'll meet up with the pirate and his
daffy bird along with many strange sights as you attempt to go from
your London flat to Treasure Island. Can you recover Long John Silver's
lost treasures?
