This is the second installment in my series “A different way to play” about front-end clients for BBS door games.
Pit Terminal
A session of “The Pit” as seen in PitTerm.
James Berry’s The Pit was an action game in which players could fight each other in gladiatorial combat. In the normal ANSI version of the game, the player character and his opponent are each represented onscreen by the symbol Ω, the Greek letter omega, which some players remember today as “the little horseshoe”. The player moves this symbol around the arena using the arrow keys, engaging in close or long-range combat as desired.
