This is my first post in this community. Hello everyone :)

"You are a lone adventurer arriving on Free Isle after a ferocious storm. Your quest is simple, to journey beyond the mountains and find your fate. You may explore villages and towns, caves and forests, collecting items and treasure. But there are whispers of darkness returning to the land, an evil which must be confronted and ultimately defeated...". Introducing:

About

TextArena is a text adventure RPG. Although it was written in the first quarter of the twenty-first century, it’s heart and soul is in early gamebooks, table-top roleplaying games, and the first forays into computer games such as text adventures. 

Disclaimer: Those expecting polished triple-A graphics, or any graphics as they are commonly understood, need look elsewhere. This game is in monochrome, and the player interacts through text-based input by the console window. There are few text-based illustrations thrown in, but Text Arena operates in the 'theatre of the mind' primarily. This game influenced by Interactive Fiction (IF), a genre I have huge respect for, however is not really itself an IF endeavour. 

This has been a labour of love to make over a few years on-and-off.
