Abandonware DOS title

A Mind Forever Voyaging

If you ever wanted to play a video game that doubles as a philosophical think piece, A Mind Forever Voyaging (1985) is your ride. Released for DOS and Macintosh, this is one of Infocom’s most ambitious works - a text adventure where you’re not a hero with a sword, but an AI tasked with simulating the future of society. Exciting, right? Well, yes, if you’re the kind of person who enjoys politics, ethics, and existential dread. There’s no treasure to collect, just data, decay, and deep thoughts. It's the game equivalent of reading Orwell and wondering if maybe the toaster is watching you.

    There is a package required for this game. This package includes a map, magazine, and other physical components. Sadly, Abandonware does not supply those materials.

    Here is a website which contains everything that would come with the game as if you bought it in 1985. http://gallery.guetech.org/amfv/amfv.html
