Welcome to XTads

XTads is a TADS 2/3 interpreter for macOS (10.12 Sierra or higher). It's a GUI application, with native macOS look and feel. Game output is text-only, with limited/simplistic support for HTML.

This is still a work in progress. Please report any bugs to runeberg76@gmail.com

Follow XTads on https://xtadsetc.com

XTads is open source and builds on the work of others. Please take the time to look at the About XTads panels.

Thanks for testing,
- Rune

Missing features

XTads currently lacks support for some features, most notably:

Hopefully these areas can be improved upon in future versions.

Some games exhibit (mostly minor) formatting issues when played with XTads, typically due to lack of full HTML support.
