As the spaceship soars out of the atmosphere, it becomes quite clear.
I recently reviewed an interesting text-based game for iOS called Blackbar. Somewhat different from other text-based adventure games, this was quite the unique title. But it made me long for a more traditional text-based adventure game experience. A quick survey of the Mac App store proved that the selection of text-based games was quite limited. I decided to give a game called Escape from the Maiden’s Curse, as it had both text-based gaming elements, as well as some interesting visual elements. It’s not a traditional text-based adventure game in the style of Zork, but it does have some of those elements.
Escape Velocity is a space action game for Mac. In Escape Velocity, you play as a spaceship captain trying to build your empire in a booming galaxy full of surprises, pirates, civil wars and more. Escape Velocity has an open ended world that counts more than 100 worlds with different technologies, trading properties and commodities.

What is it and what does it do
Main Functionality
Escape from the Maiden’s Curse is a game where you must escape from a strange and mysterious cruise ship, using only your wits.
Pros
- Inexpensive game that’s also available for iOS
- Targeted towards more casual, “pick up and play” style gamers
- Developer website includes hints!
- A good blend of text-based gaming elements and click-to-navigate movement
- Notebook to take notes in as you explore the ship
Cons

- Somewhat cluttered interface
Discussion
The game opens as you have been transported to a mysterious cruise ship amid mysterious and maniacal laughter. Trapped in Room 307, you decide that you must escape! The game scenario is presented as text, with a map of the ship serving as your sole visual.
The controls here are very simple. You can use your mouse to scroll down through walls of text, or you can click on areas of the ship or icons to make your moves. The clickability makes Escape from the Maiden’s Curse a lot more accessible than more classic text-based adventure games. There no frustrating need to find the right words to commit your next action: we’ve all been in a position playing those old-school games where you had to go through too many commands to move ahead (like, “pick up rock,” “grab rock,” “take rock.”)
The exploratory nature of Escape from the Maiden’s Curse is tons of fun, and it’s very interesting to examine the objects in very rooms and try to figure out what your next move should be. The game is so much easier to navigate than a traditional text-based adventure game, especially when it comes to using items in combination with one another. The clickable interface is an excellent feature of this interesting game.
Conclusion and download link
I can see this game appealing to fans of text-based adventure games, choose your own adventure books, mystery games, board games, or tabletop RPGs. In short, it’s got kind of an alt-nerdy feel to it. If you’re into text-adventure games or just love a good mystery, this is a game worth checking out. It’s not the flashiest game, but it has a surprising amount of substance.

Moom: Bringing order to chaos since 2011
Moom makes window management as easy as clicking a mouse button—or using a keyboard shortcut, if you're one of those types of people.
With Moom, you can easily move and zoom windows to half screen, quarter screen, or fill the screen; set custom sizes and locations, and save layouts of opened windows for one-click positioning. Once you've tried Moom, you'll wonder how you used your Mac without it.
Pop-up positioning
Hover the mouse over any window's green button, and Moom's pop-up palette appears.
Quickly fill the screen, or move and resize to vertical or horizontal halves on screen edges. Want quarter-size windows instead? Hold down the Option key, and the palette presents four quarter-size corner options, along with 'center without resizing.'
Resizing isn't a drag…
Actually, it is a drag, using Moom's unique on-screen resizing grid.
Click in the empty box below the pop-up palette, move the mouse to where you'd like the window to be, then click-and-drag out its new dimensions.
Release the mouse button, and the window will fill the outline you've drawn on the screen.
…it's a snap!
Want to quickly move and zoom windows to certain areas of the screen? Just enable Moom's Snap to Edges and Corners feature.
Grab a window, drag it to an edge or corner, and release the mouse. You can set the resizing action for each location in Moom's preferences.

Save and restore window layouts
Set up a collection of windows in the size and locations you wish, then save the layout. Restore the layout via an assigned hot key or via Moom's menus.
This feature is particularly useful if you use a laptop with an external display—Moom can trigger saved layouts on addition or removal of displays.
No mouse required
Don't worry, keyboard users—Moom isn't just for those who prefer using a mouse. Enable keyboard control, and you can move, resize, center, use the on-screen grid, and much more—all without touching the mouse.
Escape From A Moon Mac Os Catalina
In addition, every custom Moom command—keep reading!—can be assigned a global keyboard shortcut, or one that works only when the keyboard controller is onscreen.
Countless custom commands
Escape From A Moon Mac Os X
Create and save often-used Moom actions to a menu of custom commands—complete with optional dividers and labels.
Moving, zooming, resizing, centering, even moving to other displays—all are doable via custom commands. You can even create a sequence of commands tied to one shortcut, easing complex move and sizing operations.
But wait, there's more!
- Use Moom as a normal Dock-based app, as an icon in the menu bar, or as a completely invisible background app.
- Access custom commands through the Moom menu bar icon, through the green button's pop-up palette, or via keyboard shortcuts.
- Use a small hexagonal grid for grid resizing, instead of the full-screen virtual grid.
- Move windows across displays—and with chained commands, zoom them to new sizes and locations while moving.
- Display a keyboard cheat sheet that shows what tasks you've assigned to which keys in keyboard mode.
- Resize windows to precise dimensions—perfect for checking how well things fit in windows of varying sizes.
