| | | | | adventure: Encyclopedia II - Gamemaster - Tabletop Roleplaying In a tabletop roleplaying game, the gamemaster prepares the game session for the players and the characters they play (known as player characters or PCs). The GM describes the events and decides on the outcomes of players' decisions. The gamemaster also keeps track of non-player characters (NPCs) and random encounters, as well as of the general state of the game world.
The game session (or "adventure") can be metaphorically described as a play, in which the players are the lead actors, and the GM provides the stage, the scenery, the basic plot on which the improvisational script is built, as w ...

| | | | | adventure: Encyclopedia II - Quest for Glory - Games The series consisted of five games, each of which followed directly upon the events of the last. Previous entries in the series were frequently referenced, often in the form of cameos from recurring characters. The objective of the game is to transform the player character from an average Joe to a Hero by completing non-linear quests.
Each game drew its inspiration from a different culture and mythology (in order, Germany/fairy tale; Middle Eastern/Arabian Nights; Egyptian/African; Eastern European; and finally Greco-Mediterranean) with the hero facing increasingly powerful opponents with help from characters who become ...

| | | | | adventure: Encyclopedia II - Metroid series - Series The original Metroid was released for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1986, introducing Samus Aran (who at the time was unusual in being a female video game character. In fact, the advertisments and instruction manual described Samus as male in order to surprise players when the truth was revealed) and other characters that appear in subsequent Metroid games. Featuring a labyrinthine world in which the player chooses which direction to explore, it was notable for providing one of the first highly nonlinear gam ...

| | | | | adventure: Encyclopedia II - King Kong 2005 film - Comparison to the 1933 film The 2005 version follows the overall pattern of the original film closely, but changes some details and adds considerably more background and depth to the characters:
Unlike the original, the existence of Kong is unknown to Carl Denham before he reaches Skull Island; his reasons to look for the island is to film a land unknown to modern eyes. Along with his desire for fame, fortune and acceptance by his peers, his motivation to capture Kong later in the film is also linked to the deaths of his cameraman and sound recordist, and ...

| | | | | | adventure: Encyclopedia II - Katamari Damacy - Gameplay Katamari Damacy is a radical departure from traditional video game genres. There is no attack button, there are no "special moves" to unlock as the game progresses, and there are no bosses, distinguishing the game from most adventure and role-playing games. However, the game also does not fall into the familiar mold of puzzle games like Tetris—it features dialogue, a definite plot, and an explorable wor ...

| | | | | adventure: Encyclopedia II - Massively multiplayer online game - Overview and history The most popular type of MMOG, and the sub-genre that did much to pioneer the category, is the massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG). MMORPG's descend from university mainframe computer MUD and adventure games such as Rogue on the PLATO System and Dungeon on the PDP-10 that pre-date the commercial games industry.
The first graphical MMOG, and a major milestone in the creation of the genre, is the multi-player flight combat simulation game Air Wa ...

| | | | | adventure: Encyclopedia II - Pulp magazine - Terminology and history The name "pulp" comes from the cheap wood pulp paper on which such magazines were printed. Magazines printed on better paper and usually offering family-oriented content were often called "glossies" or "slicks". Pulps were the successor to the "penny dreadfuls", "dime novels", and short fiction magazines of the nineteenth century. Although many respected writers wrote for pulps, the magazines are perhaps best remembered for their fast-paced, lurid, sensational and exploitative stories and thrilling cover art. Modern comic books are sometimes ...

Interactive fiction - Adventure.

It was programmed in Fortran for the PDP-10. In 1976, Don Woods discovered Adventure while working at the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Lab, and obtained Crowther's permission to expand the game. Crowther's original version was more or les ...

Legend of the Five Rings role-playing game - Dice.
Legend of the Five Rings uses 10-sided dice exclusively. Normally, when a die is rolled and the result is 10 (normally marked '0' on the die), the die is said to "explode". In this situation, another die is rolled (or the same die is re-rolled) and the result is added to the original die. If this second die also rolls 10, another die is rolled and the result is added. This process is repeated until the die rolls something other than 10.
