The Dallas Quest is set in the wild world of 1970s American television soap operas. You play as a private investigator hired by Sue Ellen to find a map to hidden oil fields, with the promise of a reward of $2 million for your troubles. As you snoop around the grounds of the South Fork Ranch, you'll encounter familiar faces from the TV show and a menagerie of animal extras.
As you delve deeper into the story, you find yourself in the jungles of South America, facing a series of challenges that require all your wits and cunning. With a healthy dose of creativity – including an unconventional method involving a tobacco-doped monkey – you'll overcome obstacles and inch closer to your goal.
The Dallas Quest is a classic text adventure game that gets by on its charm, wit, and old-fashioned problem-solving skills. It's a true relic of the early 1980s gaming scene, with all the internal logic twists and turns that come with it. Will you be able to find the map and escape J.R.'s clutches?
