Parser-based games

Parser-based games are text-based adventures where players interact with the game through written commands. Instead of using graphics or buttons, players type in specific instructions, like "go north" or "take key." The game interprets these commands using a parser, which processes and responds to the player’s inputs. This style encourages creative problem-solving and imagination, as players must explore and interact with the game world using only text. Classic examples include "Zork" and "Adventure." These games challenge players to think critically and often require knowledge across various subjects to progress.
