## Description
_Maddingly Hall_ is a text adventure game with graphics. The player takes
control of Bertie Hall, a 26 year old gambler who has run out of funds for his
extravagant lifestyle. The game which is set in 1932 Great Britain takes place
on the titular country mansion that is owned by Agatha, Bertie’s rich aunt.
Bertie and Agatha are not on good terms but despite this Bertie visits the
mansion in an attempt to persuade Agatha to part with some of her money. The
aim of the game is to impress the aunt so that she changes her will. At the
mansion also lives a girl called Veronica who Bertie is in love with and
winning over her heart is also part of the player’s objectives.
The game is a traditional text adventure where the player enters verb noun
commands to have Bertie explore the mansion and interact with objects and
characters. Tasks have to be carried out and the aunt must be kept happy at
all times. Some tasks such as serving dinner has to be carried out on time
(each command entered takes one minute of in-game time).
