    During your last ZPH show, featuring the 36 character kernel, Tanya mentioned a famous woman developer in the Text Adventure genre.

     

    My guess is she likely was speaking of Roberta Williams, who along with her husband Ken Williams, founded Sierra Online. One of her first games was Mystery House, which combined a text adventure language parser and crude graphics. Her most famous games were the Kings Quest series.

      That's the one! Thank you so much, Roberta was featured in the recent documentary 'High Score' that we watched.
