A great teaser for an impossible-to-write sim game, June 5, 2017

The Textfire Demo 12-pack was released on April Fool's in 1998, claiming to be demos of an upcoming commercial studio called Textfire.

This is one of the cruelest jokes in the pack, a demo that promises a massive game with intense conversations, a controllable maze, and an army simulation with graphics.

This is great for its intended purpose.

You are the evil wizard in this excessively ambitious Textfire pseudo-demo! It's a shame that only one very simple puzzle is actually implemented; this is probably the most promising premise in the Textfire 12-pack, and in a superficial way anticipates Varicella.

-- Carl Muckenhoupt
