In this game you play an orc named Grunk who has been sent to find the lost pig that escaped from the farm he works at. I first played this game in middle school and just recently replayed it as an adult and I enjoyed it just as much as I did the first time. The fact that the story is told directly from Grunk's point of view makes the game ten times more hilarious. I recommend trying every command you can think of because trust me, you will get hilarious responses back for most of them. I also like the fact that the game has puzzles which can be solved by using various objects within the cave. Overall, I think this is a great, humorous game that is perfect for both beginners and experienced IF players alike.

In this game you play as a contestant on a reality show, searching for valuables inside the Sugarlawn mansion and around the plantation property. Overall, I quite enjoyed it; it's Adventure but if Adventure was a reality show, essentially. It is short, but has replayability as it is pretty hard to get a good score the first time. Overall I really liked the concept and the game itself. One question though: Why a chicken costume?

This is a story about a homeschooled girl preparing for the spelling bee. There are four different endings and it was written using Varytale, which I had never heard of prior to playing this game. Overall, I found the style a bit confusing, and it was repetitive at times, but this girl's story dideally resonate with me as it explores loneliness, a family dynamic that feels real, and the girl's struggle to figure out who she is as she grows up in a very sheltered environment. A very well told story that I ultimately replayed so that I could get all four endings.

This is a game in which you play a girl named Bridget at summer camp, having weird dreams about birds that are more interested than they should be in how society works. Overall, it was a strange concept, but somehow Brendan Patrick did make it work. I especially liked the plot twist (don't worry, I won't spoil it for you.) But I did feel that the dialogue was a bit unrealistic at times. I get that that's part of the humor, but there were a few points in the game where it just felt more awkward than anything. I know some of that is done for humor, but it's just a personal pet peeve of mine, probably because I get secondhand embarrassment extremely easily. That small complain aside, I do still think it's fun and definitely interesting.
