The Black Sage is a text adventure game based on the pen-and-paper role-playing game Tunnels & Trolls. It was developed and released in 1980 by Poly-Versa-Technology for the Apple II. It is actually an unlicensed game that draws heavy inspiration from Tunnels & Trolls.
The Black Sage is subtitled An Ogres and Orcs adventure because it was supposed to be the first in a series of similar text adventures for the Apple II, but it remained a standalone game. Almost 30 years later, Tunnels & Trolls Adventures resumed the spirit of The Black Sage, with new chapters released periodically.
