Today, we look at Thomas Disch's Amnesia, the 1986 text adventure that accurately modeled Manhattan in its time. As part of its story, we'll look at the career of science-fiction writer, Thomas M. Disch. Then, we'll talk about how he ended up in video game development. Finally, we'll talk about the development and significance of Amnesia itself, the only all-text adventure Electronic Arts published during this era. Join us as we forget the topic itself on today's trip down Memory Card Lane.
