# The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
A Python text adventure engine for the classic 1984 Infocom interactive fiction game, built from the original ZIL source code. The long-term goal is an accessible version for blind players via TTS/STT.
## Requirements
- Python 3.12+
- [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/)
## Install & Run
```bash
# Clone the repo
git clone https://gitea.smashconsult.be/seppedl/h2g2.git
cd h2g2
# Install dependencies and run
uv run h2g2
```
Or install it into an environment:
```bash
uv pip install -e .
h2g2
```
You can also run it directly as a module without installing:
```bash
uv run python -m h2g2.main
```
## What's playable
The Earth opening sequence: wake up in your bedroom, find your gown and aspirin, make your way downstairs, head to the pub, and meet Ford Prefect.
