Text adventure legend John Wilson, who used to run the biggest publisher of ZX Spectrum homegrown games in the 1980s and 1990s, has been spending his retirement converting Speccy text adventures to run on the Amstrad CPC & PCW via CP/M.

The conversions are pretty rough and ready in some cases, but John is largely doing this for his own amusement and the challenge.
In most cases the files that John has put up are the raw .COM files, which can be dropped onto a virtual Amstrad CP/M disk in an emulator such as WinApe.
