Review
This is one of the 12 games made for ToasterComp, explaining the noticeable spike in toaster-related games of 2000 you may notice when browsing the IF archives. It is extremely short. You are hired to fix a toaster and must do so by following the manual. The game's setting and atmosphere is what lifts it up: it's happening in the middle of a cook-off where stagehands are rushing by and pressure is put on you. Also, the guy you have to fix the toaster for is named Biff Backowicz. It's worth checking what your score is throughout the game, because the ranks are pretty funny.
Noticeably, Leon Lin has returned to regular IF developing over twenty years after this game, making some pretty well-received games for EctoComp and Spring Thing.
