Review
When the game tells us, without irony, that "this panty contains nothing edible," we can be sure of two things. First, this isn't AIF. Second, this is a game badly in need of some friendly beta-testers. And it isn't just about spelling. This is a game where things like this happen ...
The Spider eyes you warily.
>examine the spider
You can't see any such thing.
... Several things like this. It is, functionally, an unfinished work. Some of the writing seems fun; the basic old-school nature of it feels very nice (I like a bit of retro-adaptation!) and in every way it feels like the first beta of a game with a bright future ahead, given a few rounds of testing and the requisite elbow-grease. There's a real sense of simple fun bubbling somewhere in there. Author: time to recruit some friends, and don't worry: you haven't (at least not yet) written a bad game; it's just that your potentially good game isn't done yet.

I like the old school simulation of the 2600 game, interesting inspiration. I can pick up the doors? Also, agreed on mentioning items that are not there, make sure these can be looked at. Please mention exit directions! I went in a room and did not see the ways out. With testing and refinement, I'm sure you will have a great game.
Never give up! :)
Thanks for the feedback and for playing the game. I will patch the bugs you have flagged. I should note that that monsters travel from room to room and that the spider probably had left when you tried to examine it. I can added a notification to make this clear. Thanks again for the great feedback!
