It’s a frustrating combination of player and text adventure when you find yourself trying these in the first room:
- up
- down
- sideways
- open door
- unlock door
- mu door
- go forward
- lick door
- kill me
- kill narrator
- wake up
- climb wall
- dig floor
- dig chicks
- break door
- sing
- sing
- sing
- curse
- shout
- scream
- strip
Also:
> take a piss
You can’t see any such thing.
(Collected these links for text adventures/interactive fiction, but haven’t had time to explore yet. Nice as shooting at things is, with my reflexes something text-based is better. Plus I’m old enough to be, just barely, of the second generation before this present one, i.e. the one who had games of white text on a black screen. The generation between had that when Duke Nukem 3D refused to load; this present one never sees a text screen at all because they have Graffical Luser Interfaeces.)
