About the Story

A short joke game about jack and the beanstalk, May 26, 2017*

by MathBrush

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

In this demo, you plant the magic beans, but the game ends right around there. There was a surprise twist that I thought was pretty good.

A weaker textfire game, but with some fun surprises.

A brief one-room fairy-tale-based Textfire demo with a twist ending. You have been warned.
