I should think most people will have
heard the name Infocom, the mear name conjors up
goblins, snakes, the flathead dynasty and the good old
swizzle stick! more on that later.
My Collection
I was lucky enough to be looking through a software club
magazine back in 1988 and seeing a lot of Infocom adventures
being sold at discounted prices. I had of course heard of
the ledgendry Infocom but never played any of their
adventures, so I bought Ballyhoo and I was hooked. I then
bought as many different Infocom titles as I could before
they disapeared.
Infocom box art
Infocom always seemed to produce colourful and imaginative
artwork onto the front of their packaging. Here you can see
some of that work, the images are thumbnails, just click on
a picture for a larger image and a contents list of the
associated 'bits and pieces' (of the games I have bought
new) that came with that particular adventure.
Infocom adventure brochures.
Even Infocom's adventure brochures showing their other
releases were full of atmostphere, it was almost like a mini
adventure itself. Click on a link below to see various scans
of the brochures. (In no particular order).
