Sure.

Check out my 'Create Zork' tutorial:

http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=129931&b=7

The tutorial shows you all the basics of making a text adventure, including movement, locations, objects, inventory and parser.

Zork (Text Adventure) Tutorial by Pluto. I haven't tried it but people seem to like it.

There's a Tutorials Thread full of tutorials at the top of this board. Then again, I didn't know Zork was a text adventure when I first saw the tutorial .

EDIT: Haha Pluto beat me to it

Here are a few tutorials on creating text adventures in DarkBASIC Pro for you, xxelixx. Not sure how good they are, though.

Youtube Tutorial: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=4Rwgg6DVOww

Deviant Tutorial: http://gothicanime20.deviantart.com/art/DarkBasic-Pro-tutorial-1-97959264

Not much of a text adventure tutorial, but also attached to this post is the source code file for a rather small, but fairly detailed, tutorial on a few of the text commands and focus of the cursor.

Hopefully this helps,

Tom
