Show HN: Retro text adventure game built using V0 and OpenAI

I created a classic text-based adventure game inspired by Zork using Vercel's v0. Each refresh generates a unique game title, setting, and context, with AI handling the dynamic storytelling and gameplay. It features a retro terminal-style UI, simple text commands, and endless possibilities for exploration.
