We all pretty much started with Adventure (Dungeon, Collosal Cave) whatever you want to
call it.
We got Zork later on.

There was a multiplayer game called “search” that we would play. Late in the day you’d
hear someone yell “Search’s up” and off we go.
Help me here please. I have been
hunting for the source of search for ages. I want to fly through that universe again -
curses and all!
We modified the source of our version at the Uni to make it a bit more Scottish and to
include objects that had names based on local lectures/students etc.
My search skills in searching for search have let me down badly.
I would like to get search up on one of my VAXEN and show my staff what a real 80s
computer game was about ;-)
Does anybody have any ideas if the source is still extant?
