Jason Ninneman and I are days from shipping a fully-maintained port
of Colossal Cave Adventure - not the 350-point Gillogly port from 1977
you have, but the final 2.5 version Crowther and Woods shipped in 1995.
You might have seen it in the news by now. I can never predict when
one of my announcements will go viral like that. I guess what caught
peoples' interest is that Don Woods approved this release and has been
helping us out, clarifying some historical and technical points.
The project is here: https://gitlab.com/esr/open-adventure
Is there a *BSD* BSD Games maintainer upstream of the Debian packaging?

The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to permit
the conquered Eastern peoples to have arms. History teaches that all
conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have
prepared their own downfall by doing so.
-- Adolph Hitler, April 11 1942.
