One of five interactive fiction games from Windham Classics, Swiss Family Robinson puts the player in the role of the eldest brother, Fritz. While the game has graphics, all input is text-based and uses primitive predictive text to determine user commands. The player must survive a cycle of several years on the deserted island while keeping their family alive, finding food, and avoiding dangers like quicksand and snakes.
