Firebird

by Bonnie Montgomery

Fantasy
1998

About the Story

"Firebird is based on the Old Russian folk tales that inspired the Stravinsky piece of the same name. You are Prince Ivan, and have been charged by your father, the tsar, to find the Firebird that has been stealing your father's golden apples. Your two older brothers have already tried and failed -- can you triumph over the many obstacles in your quest? Remember, your mission is not as simple as it first seems..."
[author's blurb, from The (Other) TADS Games List version 1.2]

Reviews from Duncan Stevens and Paul O'Brian

Stevens: "If Firebird encouraged more research into backgrounds of games, and more innovative settings, it might lead to more creative games, never a bad thing. In its own right, it's a worthy effort."

O'Brian: "Firebird proves beyond a doubt that the intersection between folk tale and IF is a fertile one."
