Scott Adams was the first commercially successful author of adventure games for microcomputers. His name has become synonymous with a certain period in the history of games - roughly, the late 70's and early 80's, the era of the two-word parser. Although the technology behind his games seems antique now, his inventiveness and good design sense still shine through. Mr. Adams has recently released his first new game in 15 years.
