Strange Journey wasn't the kind of game that made me do that. it's mission tracker is so robust I never forgot what I was doing or what steps in a quest I had completed. And I just kept teleporters and stuff in my short term memory until I cleared the dungeon, you don't really need it a second time around.
Etrian Odssey and Ultima 4 were the games where I kept a notepad handy.
