ADAM Thinks from Martin Consulting is a collection of four programs focused on artificial intelligence and entertainment. The package includes Therapist — a conversational AI program based on the classic Eliza program, written by a clinical psychologist, which analyzes sentences using up to three key phrases with a fast machine language subroutine for more complex responses; Checkers — a standard checkers game displayed graphically on screen where ADAM plays fairly well using arrays and IF statements for strategic decisions; Mentalist — a program that provides clairvoyant readings based on two illusions, producing personalized horoscope-like readings based on general traits determined by age, sex, height and weight; and The Curse of Ondine — an interactive fiction game based on the German legend of the nymph Ondine, where you enter English commands to direct the course of the story with different outcomes each time.\n\nOriginal retail price: $34.95 (US) / $43.95 (CDN) (Martin Consulting Catalog, August 1985)

Adventure Creator from Martin Consulting, included in the Fantasy Gamer package, is a framework program that gives you the basic elements of an adventure game without the details of the story.
