Nightmare Planet

This is a computer adaptation of a stateless gamebook by Stephen Mooser first published in 1985, #19 in the "Which Way Books" series. As in its original book form, the game play here involves reading text passages and selecting from options presented at the end of them -- basic hyperfiction with no random elements or player stats.

This story casts the player as a scout trainee on the Star Clipper Explorer, picking between missions to explain why Planet 3CG's intelligent life has disappeared or to have a showdown with an enormous world-destroying crystal in the Signus Arton system.
