			The ADLAN (ADventure LANguage) adventure game compiler was created by Richard Brooksby and published by [[Graduate Software]] in 1988 for the Amstrad CPC.

			Unlike most other 8-bit adventure systems at the time, rather than running from disk or loading into memory from cassette tape, the compiler element of the system was supplied on a physical ROM. The user would write their adventure in a text file and that source would then be turned into a machine code program by the ADLAN system.

			The system required an Amstrad CPC fitted with a disk drive, but it could produce both disk and cassette-based adventures. When running from disk, games could load in graphics and additional text.

			The system came with a demonstration adventure Bar Trek that was written by Richard Brooksby and a school friend.

			ADLAN is available through [https://web.archive.org/web/20220812023856/https://richard.brooksby.org/1987/adlan/ the author's website], with an image of the ROM that can be used in an emulator or burnt onto a chip for use in a real Amstrad CPC.
