Text Adventures are EVIL.

[KentaRawr!]

I was browsing the internet and stumbled on the text adventure game Ishar, which is web-based. After making my character, I killed a songbird because a fairy told me to do it. This is what it said, exactly:


You grin with malice and kill a songbird!
A songbird issues a bloodcurdling cry of pain!
*> A songbird is DEAD! <*
A duck stares in horror at the corpse of a songbird.

:(

So, do you like text adventures? If so, which ones? :D

...O_O

What?!

You sick, sick person!

The fairy told me to do it, okay! It didn't let me kill the duck, so that's good, right?

Just make sure you don't get eaten by a grue :p

I want to play this game.

That sounds awesome.

I'm not one for text adventures usually though. I prefer graphical adventure games.

I used to play a text-based online fantasy war game called Dominion.

God that was lame.

I used to play something like... Equinox, or some :bou::bou::bou::bou:, when I was 13 or something? Fuck I can’t remember. Anyway, they deleted your character if you were idle for over 2 weeks or something, so when I went on holiday I got one of my friends... well, friends from the game, to look after my account. When I came back he had stolen all my items and got me banned from the chat room.

I am still plotting revenge
