Thanks to a combination of mysterious people who, back in the day, converted some Scott Adams adventures to Infocom Z5 format, and Shawn Sijnstra who has been updating his Infocom Executor, four of Scott Adams adventures which were not made for the TRS-80 can be played on a Model 4
This game is as tricky and devious as the mind of Scott Adams gets. A treasure hunt in the same vein as its predecessor, it incorporates some of the more interesting effects Scott achieved using his system. Knowledge of “Pirate Adventure” is essential.
Buckaroo Banzai, a neurosurgeon, rock star and more, must try to fix a jet car that can drive him into the 8th dimension.
The Hulk gets taken to a surreal otherworld for his testing by the Chief Examiner, and must find a way to survive in this alien environment while collecting a number of Gems.
It’s the amazing Spidermn’s turn to be tested by the mysterious Chief Examiner. The offices of the Bugle have been taken over by some of his most famous adversaries, and it’s up to him to get the presses rolling again.
Walk-throughs are available on the Scott Adams Adventure Page. To download Scott Adams Adventure files, click here.

With the development of SDLTRS2 moving forward so quickly, and with having emulations that neither TRS80GP nor TRS32 have, I have updated the Emulator page to include SDLTRS2 in the comparison chart.
For people looking to emulate the EG 3200 or Genie III, or for people who need emulation of Dave Huffman’s or Selector’s or EG 64.1 RAM upgrades, or people who want to emulate the HRG1B high-res graphics or the Schmidtke 80-Z Video Card, or people who want to emulate Archbold, Holmes Sprinter II/III, or Seatronics speed-up boards, or people who want to access real floppy drives (Linux Only), note that SDLTRS does all that.
Great work, Jens!
