Empire of the Over-Mind is an all-text adventure game in which the player tries to destroy the Over-Mind, an evil computer that has taken over a magic kingdom.[6]Reception
In a 1984 COMPUTE! piece on adventure games, Selby Bateman wrote: "One very popular game for Avalon Hill has been its all-text adventure, Empire of the OverMind [sic] for Apple II and Atari computers, which is still selling well, notes Jack Dodd, Avalon Hill's director of marketing."[7]
Bill Seligman reviewed Empire of the Overmind in The Space Gamer No. 49.[3] Seligman commented that "For the price of this primitive program, one could buy two-and-a-half Scott Adams all-text adventures or one full-color graphics adventure from On-Line. Not recommended."[3]
