My introduction to H2G2 was the Amiga text based game. I got stuck on heart of gold and to this day don’t know what I was missing. Now I’m going to have to give it a go again: https://www.cnet.com/tech/gaming/play-the-hitchhikers-guide-...

Very cool. I do wish it could be trained on Douglas’ books, since it has no knowledge of Zem:

> user: are there really sentient mattresses?

> guide: oh absolutely, they're probably lounging around discussing the meaning of fluff and velvet, just like we question life's absurdities.

> user: what are they called?

> guide: those clever cushions prefer to be known as the "thinking textiles," pondering on all things plush and profound.

> user: what is a mouse

> guide: in the cosmic kitchen, a mouse is just a very small ingredient with enormous potential to spice up any intergalactic adventure.

I laughed. The unexpected context shift is very Douglas.
