How Do I Play?
TL;DR? This is interactive fiction / text adventure, where you control the main character and choose how the story goes. If you're new to this genre, we recommend you check the and enable "easy mode" and "auto-complete". That will cut down on typing and allow you to experience the story in a more point-and-click way.
Not sure how to play? This style of text adventure game was popular in the 1980's, but isn't so common now. We'll help you get started.
The game is a story, and you are the main character! Simply type what you want to do. (Or use the auto-complete feature to select from suggested actions and objects.) For example, you can look to see what's in the room, you can examine a thing to look more closely at it (such as examine clock), you can take certain objects, and you can move east, west, etc. to move from room to room. Use the up and down arrow keys to move through your command history.
To get the most out of this story, you should explore and talk to people (ask about ...) and look closely at objects of interest (examine ...)
The game won't understand every possible sentence, so here is a quick guide to the commands and patterns you should know. Some commands have single-letter aliases you can use (shown here in parentheses):
These are the most important things for most games. Some games may use other actions, which will appear in auto-complete when appropriate. Feel free to use your imagination, experiment, and see what happens!
Enjoy!
