Eldorado Gold

Eldorado Gold is a text adventure that takes place in the old west. The background story is brief but tells about a rich man called Billy McCluskey whose treasures were lost after a sudden death. The aim of the game is simply to locate and retrieve as much of Billy's treasure as possible. The game ends when the player goes to a hotel and enters the command "score". Most of the game takes place inside a mine and its surroundings. Like in other text adventures the player uses verb noun commands such as "get lamp" and "examine bed" to interact with the environment. Dangers include Apaches and deadly snakes and it is also possible to end up in jail.
