[Manalive Smith]

It’s a text based game, you type commands such as “pick up the thing your aunt gave you which you don’t know what it is” and “head south”.

[Manalive Smith]

On my first try I didn’t even make it out of bed. “Examine [stuff]” is also a good command, and if you type “i” to check your inventory you will find that you have “no tea”.

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

I’m so confused

[Manalive Smith]

The game also expects you to pick up everything you ever see, solve a seventeen part puzzle involving sticking a fish in your ear, and know to feed a dog a sandwich near the beginning of the game, so that when you travel back in time later the dog doesn’t try to eat you.

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

Oh dear.

[Manalive Smith]

Can you see why I’m proud I beat it.

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

Yes.

[Masøn M.]

Holy cow, Manalive… I’ve been playing that thing for 20 minutes… It’s so hard XD

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

I didn’t make it past the bulldozer.

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

I need to send it to my brothers. It’s the kind of thing that they would really enjoy.

[Masøn M.]

How in da world do I NOT GET HIT IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH BRICKS… This game is making me rage as hard as Mirror’s Edge did…

[Masøn M.]

Okay I found the “Hints” list… I’m good…

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

Heh.

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

Forget what I said about scoring 16% on the Geek Test, I took it again and scored 19.37%.

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

It’s rather reminiscent of King’s Quest.

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

The Hitchhiker game, that is.

[Manalive Smith]

I’m trying to speed run it. I’m 353 moves into my third attempt. The first attempt ended with a brick.

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

I’ll have to try again later.

[Masøn M.]

I won’t get the same satisfaction as most when I complete it by slightly cheating, but I am only cheating when I am totally stuck… It’s so rage inducing lol

[Dawn]

You’ve ruined my life Manalive Smith. I hope you’re happy. I’m done.

[Manalive Smith]

I spent a lot of time reading through the clues, so don’t feel bad. I’ve been killed by a bug bladder beast twice, but that doesn’t restart the game so I’m still working at it.

[Manalive Smith]

453 moves in I was wandering around in the dark for a while before accidentally appearing inside my own head. I exploded. I give up for now.

[Manalive Smith]

I apologize Dawn, and know that I am happy.

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

I apparently need to play more of this game.
