Speed IF (played with Parchment): Brief and entertaining, March 10, 2026

I played this with Parchment using the "play online"-button on IFDB. This game is from EctoComp 2009 when only Adrift games were entered. The story is entertaining and worth playing, even though it is clearly speed-if meaning that the parser is not very good. (Spoiler - click to show)Sometimes you are told there are no exits but keep trying the cardinal directions anyway.
The parser is very literal. If the text subtly proposes a non-standard command, you should probably try it. However, except for my hidden spoiler text above, I had no serious problems with this small game.
So I recommend it if you like horror with a humorous twist despite the quirks.
