The Hobbit 40th anniversary

I still am not sure if I dreamed this or not but if you climbed into the chest at the start and try and continuously move in a direction you would bump your head and eventually die

Damn you, spent the last 10 mins trying to get into the chest ... doesn't seem to work on the Amstrad version anyway

Cant beat a good text adventure. Melbourne House did some really interesting ones after The Hobbit.

Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.
