Questprobe: Featuring Human Torch and the Thing
Developed by:
Adventure International
Scott Adams created Adventure International in the wake of the success of his text adventure games published by the TRS-80 Software Exchange (later The Software Exchange). It released all his classic adventures along with some new ones, plus a line of games by other designers, notably the "Other Venture" series. Amongst the later Text adventures was the Questprobe series, based on Marvel characters.
The company went out of business in 1985 following the general decline of text adventures in the market.

Description
You are in charge of the main character... any action,
response or behavior that the character performs comes from you.
When your character asks, "WHAT SHALL I DO", answer him by typing
in 2-word commands from your keyboard. If your character has
spotted an item in his vicinity, he might be able to acquire it if
you tell him to TAKE it or GET it, as in GET BOOK or TAKE HAMMER.
Be literal and precise your character is depending on you to
tell him exactly what to do. If he or she doesn't understand your
meaning, you'll be told that they don't understand. When that
happens, try different commands until you find one that works.
Finding out what commands work and what ones don't is part of
the fun of an Adventure. Common Sense helps. For example, your
character cannot Wear a coat until he has Gotten it first.
