This cracked me up. Love a good text adventure. I did have to peak at the transcript a bit.

!> I found the treadmill logic to be a bit finnicky. Inserting the SH card is only possible when you are standing on it. This was kind of confusing.

I love the time paradox problem. Really cool job!

Thanks for playing, @pbg! ||Inserting the card should be possible from anywhere in the room, not sure what's going on there||. Still, that's what the transcript is for :)

@mdotedot, @cookie-chr thanks for playing!

Ok. 2 things. One really awesome, the other, stuck in a loop. haha

here are pictures showing the hilarity of the awesome part. I put everything in the drawer! Even the basket.Frank Gevaerts-HT-hehehe.png

then the less good thing i got stuck in a loop that i didn't know what to do. Even when I looked up the answer eventually, i still had issues with getting the end to trigger. I didn't know the goal was to stop the treadmill from smoking. :-) I kept trying to feed it gameboys and jupiters. LOOPofNothing.png

I loved phil following us all over. ;-)

@commanderstitch thanks for playing! ||From what I can see in that last bit what you were missing was pushing the button after successfully inserting the card? It didn't work in the first treadmill because you were in the future then I think, which is a different treadmill, and by them "they" had removed the slot||

haven't played any text adventures in ages and this was a really fun trip down memory lane with cool references to LD and other gaming related topics. Well done!
