In commemoration of the BBC's upcoming Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy radio shows (adapting the latter three books in Douglas Adams' beloved "trilogy"), the company is re-releasing Infocom's classic Hitchhiker's text adventure. Presumably, the text of the game itself will remain the same, but the BBC is updating it to include accompanying illustrations. Rod Lord, who did graphic work for the original Hitchhiker's TV series, will be working on the game.

The game—which Adams described as "user insulting" and "user mendacious" rather than "user friendly"—will be hosted on the BBC's website.
