A MIS-Adventure, by Helmar B. Herman

Not bad for what it is... A quick little text adventure in which you play the part of a programmer coming in to work over the weekend to fix a horrible bug in your program code. The game is not without its frustrations--such as having to punch in a code to unlock a door every time you go through it. Most of the solutions make sense, or are at least easy enough to figure out. One thing that tripped me up for a while is that being in the same room as an object that you need to use is not necessarily the same thing as carrying the object. Shouldn't take more than a half hour or so, from start to finish.
