Overview
This was the first annual Text Adventure Literacy Jam.
The aim was to write a text adventure that was suitable for children with no prior experience playing text adventures. The game had to include an in-game tutorial.
The entrants were judged by the public and prizes were awarded to the winning entries.
The full rules and guidelines can be viewed on the competition's home page.
A Spanish version of the competition was conducted at the same time. See Concurso de iniciación a las aventuras de texto.
