On Tueday, October 28, 2025, 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.
1. The Wizard Sniffer by Buster Hudson (2017) Average member rating: (145 ratings)
David Welbourn says:
In this fantasy game, you play as a female pig who was sold to a dim-witted knight as a wizard sniffer. You cannot actually sniff out evil wizards, but here you are, outside the Impenetrable Keep you escaped from only two nights ago. You think it's in your best interest to play the part as best you can. For now.
2. Frankenfingers by Charles Moore, Jr. (2025) Average member rating: (8 ratings)
David Welbourn says:
Inside this game, beware the name of Victor Frankenstein. His secret arts use body parts, and one of them is mine! I move and see and hear and yet I'm just a severed hand Reanimated in this crypt without my wedding band. Where can I go, what should I do with this strange borrowed life? Can I escape? Can I go home and find my grieving wife?
In this sci-fi espionage game, you again play as the hero Galaxy Jones. Sirius Syndicate cyborgs have turned Phobos into a giant missile and intend to smash Mars with it. Your mission is to sneak into their secret base on Phobos and stop them. And don't kill anyone unnecessarily. Save who you can.
4. Willy's Manor by Joshua Hetzel (2025) Average member rating: (7 ratings)
David Welbourn says:
In this mildly-silly puzzle game, you play as a producer who wants to get Willy, the eccentric billionaire owner of an international novelty company, on his TV show. Willy will do it if you pass a "test" in his manor first.
5. Dreadwine by Eric Eve (2006) Average member rating: (6 ratings)
David Welbourn says:
In this retelling of a dream, you find yourself in a crowded yet strangely-quiet café with O'Brien and Sandra. O'Brien tells you that people are taken to the castle and turned into wine. Sandra knows she's next and has lost all hope. But there must be a way to escape this town and save Sandra! Isn't there?
6. The Gate, by Owen Parish (2004) David Welbourn says:
In this tiny one-room game, you are the eternal guardian of the Gate, armed with a sword and appointed by the Ultimate. Behind the Gate is all of reality, the Ultimate itself, and the other intelligences. Out of the chaos, Harbinger approaches you and asks to be let inside. Which decision will you make?
7. In the End, by Joe Mason (1996) Average member rating: (16 ratings) David Welbourn says:
In this puzzleless story about suicide, you play as a moody man attending the funeral of your friend Jon. He wasn't the type to ever give up and die, no matter how down he was. At least, you hadn't thought so. Yet he chose his own time to go. With dignity. As he had a right to. Damn. You never were one for philosophy. Jon's death must have affected you more than you thought.
8. The Job, by Fredrik Ramsberg (2021) Average member rating: (3 ratings) David Welbourn says:
In this small game, you borrowed money from Ricky, so now you have to do this job for him. You were searching the broom closet of The Red Anchor when someone pushed you over. Seems like Ricky left a note: "Return with the necklace, or don't return!"
