In 1985 I left my first job after becoming a Software and Computer Engineer. Since I had played Adventure, Dungeon, Planetfall and many more adventure games, I wrote a small adventure game in Cobol (since that was the only language available!) and left it for my collegues to enjoy after I was gone. The game was Saviour. A friend and I started to design a language to write adventure games in, we called it Alan, Adventure LANguage. The language has gone trough many changes over the years and is now in alpha state of generation 3, and the game Saviour is still being distributed with Alan as a simple example, "old-school" game.
