Escape from Patmos

A text adventure you can play right here, on any phone.

Escape from Patmos started as a C++ command-line text adventure: explore rooms, pick up weapons, armor and items, and fight your way off the island.

The 2026 web edition brings the same game into the browser. It runs entirely on your device with tap-friendly controls, so it works on a phone as well as a desktop, with nothing to install.

Highlights

  • Original game written in C++ (rooms, characters, weapons, armor, items)
  • Rebuilt as a TypeScript game engine with automated tests
  • Mobile-first terminal UI with tap buttons and a keyboard prompt
