I'll try everything, but the game doesn't understand anything...

Wandered a bit. Could go through locked doors (?). It didn't recognize 'use', which seems a common verb. Or 'unlock'. Wasn't quite sure what to do with the key, then. Seemed the elevator wanted it, but couldn't figure out how to... use it.

Shortcuts for directions would be super nice, too! (n,s,e,w)

I played this for about ten minutes...obviously not enough time to fully get into it, but I like it. Most of the commands seem intuitive, and the dialogue is well written.

The only suggestion that I would have would be a few things to save on typing. For example, if you could type "e" instead of "east". Also it would be nice if there was a keyboard shortcut to clear out all of the text without having to backspace.

I plan to come back to this one once I get a chance to rate some more games.

I got pretty far, 'til I decided it'd be a good idea to try and kill the guard. Pretty engaging for a text adventure, although I found the number of hallways and such a bit overwhelming.

Well I'm stuck in the loop but it was fun running around.
I wonder what's in the kitchen :O

A great text-based adventure. The gamespace made sense mentally and the real-time elements are appropriately stressful. Loved it.

Last-minute upgrade: some more synonyms for turning on light (just saying lights now works), and using N,E,S,W now works.

it doesn't seem to want to go east or west, and help seemed to break after a little bit.

It doesn't recognize door while in the first room.

Incredibly advanced project and you took it on incredibly well. Good work!

Very well donde with mood here. You reminds me when I was a child and expend a lot of time with this type of game

Love text adventure games! :)

I liked that this was text based. It's the only one I've seen so far, but there are way too few options which can get quite frustrating mid-game.

Awesome! great mood got to the end and then died on the guard. cool writing, cool story.
