On Wednesday, November 29, 2023, 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 one-keystroke-per-command fantasy game, you play as Mr Bartholloco, an apprentice watchmaker. The Society of Wizardry hired you to recover the Staff of Many Powers, stolen by a wizard now hiding inside the Halls of Morok. To aid you, you have the vambrace of Morok's daughter Destiny. Every gem you find for the vambrace adds a new spell you can use. Solve puzzles, defeat monsters, and earn treasure!

David Welbourn says:
In this comedy game, you play as Lola, the circus's greatest and only clown. Your skills include pie-throwing, balloon-animal-making, and nose-honking. The Ringmaster whimpers about a ghost, a Phantom sabotaging the acts. You tell him you'll sort the Phantom out while he deals with the paperwork.
In this custom-command tale of adventure, you play as the Barbarian King. Regard the scene. You have just slain the demon that an enemy sorcerer sent into your very throne room through a magical portal. Your blood sings. You crave vengeance. Seize your weapon, smite your foes, and loot their spoils!
4. Glik I, by Logan Edwards (2011) Average member rating: (4 ratings) David Welbourn says:
In this RPG-style game, it's 600 years after the Cataclysm, when the Ancients used horrible weapons. Much knowledge was lost, but artifacts remain. You style yourself as an archaeologist. The cursed land of Glik is rumored to have many terrible beasts but also great wealth. You mean to claim that treasure for yourself. In part one, you explore caves inhabited by the undead and ruled by a Lich.
5. baby tree, by Lester Galin (2012) Average member rating: (33 ratings) David Welbourn says:
This short minimalist surreal horror piece begins with a verse from PLACEBO's "Song to say goodbye". You play as a woman in bed with a knife. You can't sleep. A boil on your throat hurts too much.
6. Hide a pachyderm!, by Simon Deimel (2014) Average member rating: (7 ratings) David Welbourn says:
In this simple and very short one-room joke game, you have six turns to hide your pet elephant before your angry landlord forces his way into your tenement. Good luck!
7. Inspiration!, by Jacob Polar (2011) Average member rating: (3 ratings) David Welbourn says:
In this small slice-of-life game, you are a new homeowner trying to write an interactive fiction game, but you lack inspiration. Walk around your barely-furnished new home and search for inspiration. When you're ready, return to your office to write your game.
8. Statue, by David A. Clysdale (1999) Average member rating: (2 ratings) David Welbourn says:
In this small, simple art piece, you are traveller who finds a king's statue in the desert, its head broken off and half-buried in the sand. What will you do?
