+<NAME>Adventure History in the Mystery House</NAME>

+ "You are in the front yard of a large, abandoned Victorian house."
+</p>
+
+<p>
+ You can now experience adventure game history, and play Sierra's early
+ <i>Hi-Res Adventure #1: Mystery House</i> in ScummVM. Dare you leap back to
+ 1980 and take the steps up to the porch? Grab the game and a
+ <a href="/downloads/#daily">daily build</a>, and join our testing by stepping back in time.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+ We're proud to announce that we now also have support for several other
+ games using the same ADL system — which feature advanced technologies
+ such as color graphics! Perhaps you'd rather save the planet (<i>Hi-Res
+ Adventure #0: Mission Asteroid</i>), or save the princess (<i>
+ Hi-Res Adventure #2: The Wizard and the Princess</i>)?
+</p>
+
+<p>
+ We're working on the rest of the <i>Hi-Res Adventure</i> games, but in the
+ meantime, we're releasing support for the Apple II versions of these
+ three games for testing, and look forward to seeing any bug reports for
+ problems you might find. We'd like to include these in our next release,
+ so be sure to read through our
+ <a href="http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Release_Testing">testing guidelines</a>,
+ and don't forget to take some
+ <a href="http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Screenshots">screenshots</a>.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+ <i>Mystery House</i> was released into the public
+ domain by Sierra On-Line in 1987, to celebrate their 7th anniversary.
+ You can <a href="/download/#mysthous">download it</a> for free. For more details about the
+ other games and where you might be able to buy a copy, take a peek
+ at <a href="http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/ADL">our wiki pages</a>.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+ If you happen to have original floppies for any of the <i>Hi-Res Adventure</i>
+ games (for any platform), we want to hear from you. In particular, if
+ you have an Apple II version of <i>Hi-Res Adventure #3: Cranston Manor</i>,
+ please get in touch. Many of these games are rare, and we cannot add
+ support for all the different releases without your help!
