30th anniversary refit of the cruel, cruel text-adventure game.
The game is still the same wonderful piece of interactive fiction that Douglas Adams wrote and Steve Meretzky programmed, but in finding it a new home, a few changes needed to be made.

We were able to build in a larger, handier interface, with additional keys and functionality, and build in the ability to tweet from the game. —BBC Radio 4 Extra
