How to Write a Text Adventure in Python

People new to programming often ask for suggestions of what projects they should work on and a common reply is, “Write a text adventure game!” I think there are even some popular tutorials floating around that assign this as homework since I see it so much. This is a really good suggestion for a few reasons:

  • The concept is familiar and fun (everyone loves games!)
  • They can be written using core libraries
  • The UI is the console

But new programmers often struggle with knowing where to start. That’s why I wrote and published Make Your Own Python Text Adventure. This book is a structured approach to learning Python that teaches the fundamentals of the language, while also guiding the development of your own customizable text adventure game.
