>You have found a TOOL for creating interactive fiction. >About
>Ask about HOW TO USE >This TOOL contains a table upon which a large, ancient- looking BOOK is placed. Upon closer inspection, the BOOK is titled “INFORM7.” It is written in English, but its syntax is undecipherable.
>More about INFORM7 >This BOOK is dull.
>Examine >You look around you. On the east wall, you find four AFFORDANCES hanging in nice picture frames. The AFFORDANCES are labeled TUTORIALS, CREATOR ENGAGEMENT, COMMUNITY, BROWSER-BASED.
>Help >While walking up to examine the AFFORDANCES, your foot brushes against a pile of raggedy CONSTRAINTS discarded on the floor. In a messy scrawl, the CONSTRAINTS are labeled: NOT INTUITIVE, MOSTLY VERBAL, and LEARNING CURVE.
>About MODES >You approach a closed, locked door; you have reached an impasse. To figure out what to do next, you can LOOK, READ, or MOVE.
>About AUDIENCE >You hear a click- clacking noise coming from behind you. Turning around, you see a SMART PERSON using a COMPUTER.
>EXIT >Overwhelmed by all of the confusing activity in this godforsaken place, you run away never to look back.
>END >Somehow, you have died of dysentery. Photo from:
