Re: Thaumistry, a new text adventure game by Bob Bates
Re: Thaumistry, a new text adventure game by Bob Bates Thanks everyone for the bug reports! We identified the issue and a fixed version will be uploaded later today. The workaround of launching the graphical version first, quit, and then launch the text-only version should then no longer be needed.(But as you can guess, if you already performed the workaround, then there's no need to install the updated version, as there are no other changes than this one fix.)Update:The fixed version is now live.

I really thought it was only the begining of a longer story so... is it?Glad you liked the game!It is meant to be a self-contained story rather than a series though, and there's currently no plans for a sequel. Never say never, of course, but as of right now, no sequel is planned.

Re: Thaumistry, a new text adventure game by Bob Bates SLJ wrote:Awesome. Sounds like something which I should check out.I don't find much information about the game on the website. Does it take long time to complete? Does it have any replayability?It took text adventure veteran players between 5 and 7 hours to complete. People who aren't well versed in this kind of game needed 10 to 15 hours. We added context-sensitive hints in the game though. If you decide to disable the hints, it might take longer to complete.As for replayability, it's a linear adventure game. The story will not change between playthroughs.

Re: Thaumistry, a new text adventure game by Bob Bates SLJ wrote:So, does the screenreaders automatically read the incoming text so you don't have to use the virtual cursors?Yes. The text-mode version of the game runs in the same type of window as the Windows command prompt. Both NVDA as well as JAWS are able to access the text.
