Of course, for fully text-based games there's always ifwiki (http://www.ifwiki.org/index.php/Main_Page) / ifdb (http://ifdb.tads.org/) (and Infocom (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/lost-treasures-of-infocom/id577626745), for that matter).

That's fantastic!
Any reason to clack is a good reason, and the game looks really interesting as well.
Thanks for the recommendation!

It looks really cool; but, I am not sure if I want to invest that money on a game instead of paying shipping for the next cool key set coming.

I feel like there's too much exploring and too little typing..

and the fox runs too damn slow..   (http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/onion-head/embarrassed2-onion-head-emoticon.gif?1292862502)

I have it maxed + the run upgrade..   But getting around is still a bit of a pain.. and for whatever reason the forest monsters are so weak....

Overall..  very creative game, good art..   


Just my personal opinion that there's too much silliness before I get to TYPE..  (http://emoticoner.com/files/emoticons/onion-head/embarrassed2-onion-head-emoticon.gif?1292862502)

It's a children story I believe.. Presentation is excellent.

Aw, I guess I'll load up Zork or something similar if I want to play a text adventure game
