"My favorite IF "game" as opposed to a story" [+]"My favorite IF "game" as opposed to a story: There is a whole genre of IF called "abuse" which are computer games well outside the scope of what IF was intended for. SameGame stands out because it has features that not all interpreters supported at the time, such as high score saving, mouse support, and even color." ( - Full review) --mjhayes...
