IFComp 2008 - Riverside
8 Oct 2008 22:42After all the other games that the RNG gave me, it's time for my first z-code game! Whee!
This started off with some promising scenes one could do surprisingly little in. Look, an interesting character! Oh, he walked away.
Danger, excitement!
And now I'm home, with a photo-album I can't figure out how to interact with. Fuck you, album. It turns out the magic word is 'read'. The walkthrough doesn't work, and doesn't indicate this is the word you need to use to make the album work. I'd already given up on the game, but apparently there wasn't much else beyond.
I'm so frustrated with my lack of actual games that I'm really just going to defer on the other reviews of this.
Rating: 3, for being stupid and broken. It transcends a '2' because I liked where it was going. It really took two people to write this? Drop it to one and finish it and try again post-comp.
