Three Rooms and a Quote Box, September 20, 2009
by AmberShards (The Gothic South)

What can you say? It's an Introcomp entry, so it's not finished. It's tough to write a fair review of something that isn't done because you have no idea whether what you experience will be the tenor of the game or whether it will change the further in you get. Honestly, all Introcomp entries should be thrown off this site because there are so many unfinished games here already, but if I tried to wipe this page, I doubt that people would let me.

Anyways, what you have here are three rooms and a quote box in the second one that won't go away until you type in another command. There's nothing new here but the concern for the characters is unusual. You have a sense that things matter and it feels like tragedy. I think this story could end up as a moderately good game, but I'm not sure how long it would be.

There should be 4 rooms, though whether or not you find the 4th room depends on the choices you make throughout the game.
Thanks for your thoughts, they are appreciated.

IFDB is meant to be a database of information as well as a way for people to find games they might like. Which means that it needs information on games that were never finished or were just awful (or both). If someone goes looking for a specific unfinished/awful/obscure game, they should be able to find it, even if no one else can understand their interest in it.

Just sayin'.
