You might try looking for Collosal Cave, a name that Adventure sometimes
goes by.  Adventure is still my favorite "adventure-type" game.

(How many software authors have the distinction of giving a name to an
 entire class of software?  And in the 'where are they now' department,
 what ever happened to the authors of Adventure? [I think their names
 are Woods and Crowthers])
