New retro adventure Room 310: The Awakening now available!

After much hard work and dedication, I am excited to announce that Room 310: The Awakening is now available for all ZX Spectrum fans and text adventure enthusiasts. This project has been developed for you to enjoy both on the original hardware and popular emulators. It is a translation of the original work in Spanish, bringing the same experience to an English-speaking audience.

Available downloads: I provide two options for you to fully immerse yourself in this retro experience: a tape image file and a WAV file, both ready for download. Choose the format that best suits your setup and relive the excitement of classic gaming.

What to expect:

  • A fully immersive text adventure, with no graphics, where every word guides you through exploration and puzzle-solving.
  • Full compatibility with the ZX Spectrum 48k.
  • A completely retro experience, focused on narrative and interaction through typed commands.

I am thrilled to finally share this project with you. I know you’ll enjoy every moment, rediscovering the power of imagination through text-based adventures.

I tried the TAP file with FBZX, but nothing seems to happen, just a grey screen where pressing letters brings up BASIC keywords.

Does it require typing some special command?

Thank You for downloading the game! I haven’t tried it on that emulator, I use Fuse (it’s available on Linux and I think it can be installed from the terminal), but it should work by inserting the tap file and typing LOAD “” (on the Spectrum keyboard it’s J -load- PP -two quotes-) ENTER.

Thanks, it works now (strangely with FBZX I needed to press CTRL-P to get quotes).

The overall appearance is pleasing, I will play it some more tonight :slight_smile:
