That should tell you how extraordinary Planetfall is, although the fact that I was only 13 when I played this with my Dad's help may have something to do with it ; Similar to the Space Quest series, you start the game as a starship janitor who managed to escape the ship before it was destroy, subsequently landing in a deserted building complex on an alien planet. With the help of your faithful robot companion B aka Floyd , you must discover what happened to the people and solve various problems before time runs out.

Planetfall is a great science fiction game that boasts a milestone in computer gaming: creating a believable and lifelike non-player character. Floyd is universally hailed as Infocom's best NPC, and for good reason. Although he is useful for only three things in the game, Floyd constantly provides you with quips, amusing banter including many tales of his life as a robot , and hints.

Infocom was one of the largest developers of text based adventure games, and this was achieved by producing both a lot of game, but also by producing diverse and intriguing adventures. Another plus to their line of text based adventures was the parser, the manner in which the natural language commands were interpreted, which was very sturdy and was a lot more easy to get used to.

But, even so, many found it difficult to play such games, mostly because the player could easily get lost. Thus, the repackaging of these games in the Solid Gold version tried to tackle this problem by including within the games a set of hints, that made playing a lot easier, especially for new players to the genre. At any rate, in Planetfall, you play as a janitor that manages to escape unharmed from the debris of a starship that had been caught in a disaster.
