On Friday, March 29, 2024, I published new walkthroughs for the games and stories listed below! Some of these were paid for by my wonderful patrons at Patreon. Please consider supporting me to make even more new walkthroughs for works of interactive fiction at Patreon and Ko-fi.
In this game, you play as an employee of the Natural History Museum on the island of Kaua'i. Tourists have this habit of taking rocks from the island, but when they finally realize what curse they've invoked, they mail the rocks back here. Today, it's your job to return the stolen rocks to their proper places on the island. Finding chickens everywhere is completely optional.
2. Erehwon, by Richard Litherland (1999) Average member rating: (7 ratings) David Welbourn says:
In this nerdy puzzle game, you play as a 13-year-old youth carrying a lot of emotional baggage in the one-horse town of Erehwon, Aksarben. You're desperate to gain the approval of Smurf and his gang and join in their game of "Nowhere, Nebraska", but they need five dice to play and nobody's got any.
3. Six Stories by Neil K. Guy (1999) Average member rating: (21 ratings)
David Welbourn says:
After losing control of your car during a blizzard in the mountains of British Columbia, you make your way to a rundown shack and sleep. You wake up elsewhere and soon encounter a mouse, a pair of drawing compasses, a tin robot, a pirate monkey, and a pocketwatch — all human-sized, alive, drinking tea, and telling stories. They need you to lead them away from the Darkness.
4. The Chronicler, by John Evans (2010) Average member rating: (21 ratings) David Welbourn says:
In this sci-fi game featuring time-travel puzzles, you play as an investigator, sent to find out why this research colony stopped communicating with the rest of humanity. Your ship rests to the south. The complex is inside the mountain to the north.
In this small game, you play as Sheryl Swift, Sub-Lieutenant of the Human Resources Command of His Majesty Smurg IV, the Decisive's Royal Space Navy. It's after hours, but you can't go home until you find all eight chapters of the service handbook that your subordinates were working on, finished or not.
6. Magic Travels, by Mister Nose (2010) Average member rating: (10 ratings) David Welbourn says:
In this non-interactive story, you are the last magician, hunting the Master Hunter. You must defeat him to bring back magic. Unfortunately, the game is just one big text dump, and you always die. Hope you're okay with that.
7. Moondarkling: Elfboon, by Sam Kabo Ashwell (2011) Average member rating: (5 ratings) David Welbourn says:
You play as Zbyana (and you have many other names) of the Ruritanian Liminal Patrol. In the Margin Cafe, you find a beautiful outclade elf. Do you arrest her, ignore her, or try to help her?
8. Unyielding Fury, by Michael Pruitt (2006) Average member rating: (1 rating) David Welbourn says:
In this short introduction to a horror game, you play as a 13-year-old boy dreaming of running in the dark forest. You feel you belong there. You find a glowing stone, and soon afterwards, a huge werewolf.
