I stumbled across this game years ago documenting this ad: http://videogamecomicads.blogspot.ca/2014/01/tsr-hobbies-computer-games-apple-ii-1982.html
Nice to see the blank filled in. A couple of nits to pick however:
I know the game says "adventure" in its name, but ... really? A board game conversion?
In your own review of the game on your blog you acknowledge that with its fixed map, you can't really call it a roguelike... but here, you give it that tag.
Finally: a game's wikipedia entry is not its official website.

Thanks, Sciere. Should I just have sent this message as private mail to the game entry writer?

Ah sorry for the errors. The actual title says computer adventure game and coming from TSR I presumed the board game was probably a very, very light version of Dungeons and Dragons. Happy to have any errors noted and fixed though. Thanks for the feedback.

There was a decade where just about every ludic experience was described by its publisher as an "adventure" before its scope became so thin it the term was rendered meaningless.
