Almost unimplemented, June 30, 2020

Truly fantastic things can be done, in earnest or in parody, with the voice of Holden Caulfield. This not-remotely-finished game doesn't do them.

You wander into cutscenes from the book with no particular object. No documentation or in-game explanation is provided for parenthetical numbers which look like they might be footnotes, but the FOOTNOTE command is not implemented. Nor is much of anything else, including at least one room which lacks any description whatsoever.

Maybe it escaped.

(Reviewed during a roulette session of asking IFDB to show 10 random games, picking one with an intriguing title and no ratings, and playing it for purposes of reviewing.)
