  Twitter bot that plays the classic Colossal Cave Adventure game

I was inspired by listening to Brandon Rhodes talk about his port of the original Colossal Cave adventure from Fortran to python on Test & Code #151 podcast so I used Brandon's code to create a python twitter bot that plays the Colossal Cave adventure. Just @ mention the bot and it will start a new game for you--just reply to play. Source code on github and I used Oracle Cloud's free tier to host the bot in a Docker container. One fun aspect of how this is implemented is that every tweet from the bot is a separate fork of the game. So someone else could @ reply to one of your moves and branch the game from that point. This also means you have infinite "saves" as you can go back to any point in time via a previous tweet and create a new branch of the game.
