Bedlam (1982 video game)


Bedlam is an TRS-80 based text adventure game written for the TRS-80
by Robert Arnstein and released by Tandy Corporation in 1982. It was ported to the TRS-80 Color Computer. The object of the game is to escape a lunatic asylum. There are several ways to escape but only one random exit is active each time the game is loaded.

Gameplay

The game is text only. Players move through the asylum by typing simple instructions using a verb-noun command such as, "go north" or "get the key". There are NPCs such as Houdini and Picasso that can be either helpful or an obstacle.
