  • Walk through of Hunt the Wumpus for the TI-99/4 home computer.
    In 1980 Texas Instruments released the "Hunt the Wumpus" cartridge for the TI-99/4 home computer. Originally a logic/puzzle game for text-based computers, the version for the TI-99/4 (and later TI-99/4A) added options making it a memory game as well.

    You know I never understood this game when I was a kid, and it was probably my only TI99 game that never got played. Having recently rebought the system and this being among the carts, after watching your vid i finally understand it and the game is brilliant. Loving playing it on the 99. Thanks for the vid.

    1st video game I remember playing as a kid. Haven't seen the gameplay since I was a kid. Very cool to see 👍

    I did play the text version! In 1978, at my middle school, in Beaverton Oregon, during study period in the library.
    It was running on Darlene, the timeshare computer at Tektronix.

    This, Parsec, and Blackjack were my most played TI 99/4a games. I had the voice synth box, which made Parsec all the more impressive back then, but Hunt the Wumpus was my favorite. I actually found the game a bit scary as a kid.

    Hunt the Wumpus! When the guy falls you play the song that plays when you get eaten by the wumpus

    I'm looking into making a version of "Hunt the Wumpus" on an 8x8x8 RGB LED matrix cube, as one of several game modes to accompany the usual animations and displays.
    Thanks for the memory refresher, there was so much about this game (I also played it on the TI-99/4A back in the day) that I'd forgotten.

    Minesweeper can suck it! Hunt the Wumpus was a real game.
    Alpiner, Parsec, Tunnels of Doom, Microsurgeon, Early Learning Fun(just kidding) yeah Ti99 was a gem.
    My friends who had Atari 800 and Commodore 64 came to my place to play video games back in the day.
    Hunt the Wumpus was fun and terrifying. No matter how many times I get eaten by the Wumpus I would freak out every time. It looks like an evil version of the Spaghetti O’s logo. That will scare the crap out of the kiddies.

      Some endangered animals are endangered for a good reason. I wouldn’t want a Wumpus roaming around in my backyard.

    Couldnt play it whatsover at age 5, but it didnt matter because it was just too cool to be playing on a computer.

    It should be noted that a VERY faithful clone of the 4A Wumpus (and Munchman) are available for Android devices from Google Play. Plays beautifully using swipes instead of direction keys.

    • @AngryCalvin

      They also ported Parsec but the controls are terrible unfortunately. I wish they would put Alpiner on there with the Speech Synthesizer support. It would bring me great joy to get farted on by the skunk again or to kick the bear in the bum and fall to the bottom of the mountain. Helllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll. P.

      @@AngryCalvin Actually Alpiner would be great...it would get rid of the giant character redraw-flicker!
      I agree about Parsec...sometimes a game NEEDS a joystick (stick in right hand left thumb on a big red button). Munchman also suffers from screen cursor controls, but not quite as bad as Parsec where forward, reverse, up and down are quite often simultaneous movements to get out of trouble. Also nearly impossible not to overheat the lazer.
      Wumpus is absolutely perfect though. Excellent control system.

      I was trying to think what game I really wanted on a Nintendo switch I just won in a raffle. I think it's Parsec or Alpiner or Tombstone City.
