Question
It was an old 90's freeware single text box game that had your character go out and kill and loot, then sell and get better armor, then wash rinse repeat ad infinitem. The "game" was more of a cpu cycle eater, but it was kinda a kick to see it running while I was doing other things. Does anyone remember that game. I'd like to get a copy if it is still available.
There was a website that had a high-scores list for those that wanted to upload their "achievements".
Answer
You're thinking of ProgressQuest!
Progress Quest is a next generation computer role-playing game. Gamers who have played modern online role-playing games, or almost any computer role-playing game, or who have at any time installed or upgraded their operating system, will find themselves incredibly comfortable with Progress Quest's very familiar gameplay. Progress Quest follows reverently in the footsteps of recent smash hit online worlds, but is careful to streamline the more tedious aspects of those offerings. Players will still have the satisfaction of building their character from a ninety-pound level 1 teenager, to an incredibly puissant, magically imbued warrior, well able to snuff out the lives of a barnload of bugbears without need of so much as a lunch break. Yet, gone are the tedious micromanagement and other frustrations common to that older generation of RPG's.
