Thanks to my first Beta Tester, and first Reviewer, I have a new release out! This one addresses many beta test findings, as well as some items noted in the review, such as the scoring bug, and ensuring there are clear clues available for the "guess the verb" puzzles. No guessing required if you find the clues.
I'm also working to address the First Timer Foibles in more detail. I've addressed 2 and 9... not sure 14 is much of a problem, but will check. The next release will focus on plot advancement, primarily through 15. (I've added a "show", in addition to the pre-existing ask and talk commands, but still lots of opportunity here to do more!)
Keep the feedback coming, and I'll keep polishing this exuberant, silly game.
