Hitchhiker's Guide to the Infocom Game

BBC Radio 4 has released a free online version of the 1984 Infocom adventure game based on the Douglas Adams' book. Adams worked on the game. The BBC version has illustrations. And a second BBC version has illustrations done by the winner of a competition.

So, if you have read the book, heard the radio version, seen the TV series, gone to the movie and rented the DVD, now you can re-enact it by typing in phrases such as "Take towel. Look at towel."
