Malloy. I think there are several good graphics adventure games tht run on the Atari (there are lots of not-so-good too). "Wizard and Princess" is pretty good. The Ultima II and Ultima III pair are combination text/graphics games that are excellent. Depends somewhat on what you want and whether the person(s) playing are experienced in this type of game or not. But, I will agree that the Infocom games are super, in the text adventure group they head the list and, as a whole, their games are better than the graphics group. For something unusual, look into either "hercules" or "Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves". Not classic adventure games, these are fun and graphically oriented games that are less puzzle solving exercises than the other, more typical adventure games. Have fun.
