Dark Side of the Moon

Dark Side of the Moon is a text adventure in which the player guides a space crew in their mission to recapture a moon base and a miracle mine. The game starts when the space craft arrives on the moon and then takes place in four phases. From the craft the trek across the moon's surface needs to be prepared and once the destination is reached problems there need to be solved.

All commands are typed in and there are no graphics. There are 150 locations in total and multiple characters need to be managed, to provide the right tools to the right people according to their expertise. There are puzzles to solve and characters have the ability to carry items with an inventory. Characters will talk with each other and converse with the player.

The text parser is quite strict, only accepting commands in capitals and demanding specific names for items.
