As well as providing stupendous entertainment for the player, the games chart the evolution of Robico's adventure writing techniques, from the company's initial work in sentence interpretation when Rick Hanson was released in March 1985, through the improvements and refinements in Project Thesius, and culminating in the superb Advanced Parser used in Myorem, which was released in August 1986.
