This Perl extension allows representation of Scott Adams games. It aids in designing and programming games, and enables the creation of interactive fiction stories with objects, locations, and characters.
Games::ScottAdams is a Perl module designed to represent Scott Adams games. This software is particularly useful for adventure games in the textual SAC format that need to be compiled into a form understood by Scott Adams adventure interpreters, such as GnomeScott and ScottFree.
The syntax is straightforward; first, initialize a new Games::ScottAdams::Game object using the command "new Games::ScottAdams::Game." Then, specify the location of the desired SAC format file to be parsed with the "parse" command. Finally, use the "compile" command to render the game into a format that can be used by Scott Adams interpreters.
Although the module contains an API, it is not particularly useful for the average user. It's far easier to rely on the sac program, which offers the same functionality as the module's API with the addition of stricter syntax checking.
Overall, Games::ScottAdams is a useful tool for game developers who want to create Scott Adams adventure games, but it may not be necessary for those who are only interested in playing games.
