Der Überfall
„Der Überfall“ is a classic text adventure developed with Adventuron that puts you in the role of a traveling merchant who is ambushed by greedy bandits on his journey. Without weapons, without allies, and with hardly any time to think, you must rely solely on your wits.
Through text input and tactical decisions, you navigate a dangerous situation where every action can mean the difference between freedom and death. The game offers a total of five different endings – depending on how you perform and which path you choose.
Whether you try to talk your way out, hide, fight, or flee:
Your decisions shape your story.
Ideal for fans of classic text adventures, interactive fiction and minimalist yet atmospheric games.
This game was created as part of a semester project in the „Introduction to Game Design“ module. The goal was to develop an original text adventure using Adventuron, incorporating game design principles and gaining first programming experience. The game, „Der Überfall“ is the result of this learning process: an experimental, atmospheric project that blends storytelling, player choice, and classic parser gameplay.
Pixel art was generated with AI.

Please, an Spanish version?
THX!
Thank you for your interest! I will think about it, but since i dont speak Spanish fluently, i wont be able to translate the game completely by my own. I could use AI or other translation tools, but it could mess up the code/the game logic, because the displayed text needs to match the names of the locations/objects in the code - This wont be that easy for me since i dont speak Spanish that well. But if i find the time, i will try to translate the game into Spanish and other languages!
Thx!
Was all excited Game looked good sounded good, direction were in English and then the game text is in German. Or I could not find a translator option?
Yes, unfortunately, the game is entirely in German at the moment. I created this game as part of a semester project at a German university, so the text is currently only available in German. But I will translate and update the game, so that it is also available in English
:) Thank you! looks like a good game
I have translated the game into english and playtested it once to check if everything works. I hope you enjoy the game :) But don't expect too much, it was just a learning project, haha
Oh Thank you kindly!! Played it got to the You Win, #1 nice, my last input that won the game was sort of meant as a joke, shocked me that it worked..Great well though out game, can't thank you enough for the translate! Totally enjoyed it!
