Most of the 8-bit home computers were released with some dialect of BASIC included. As BASIC is a relatively simple language it made it easy to write text adventures in. This also made games easy to port from one computer to another, often leading to confusion over which machine the game was originally developed on.
BASIC here covers all dialects of BASIC.
