Though this be madness, yet there is method in’t. By way of my sis-in-law Lotta, the Hamlet text adventure game. How cool is this? I look forward to playing it through once I finish up my freelance work. Here’s a tip…don’t jump out of Ophelia’s window. Update: Ok, I got distracted and went ahead and beat the game. It’s pretty clever, except for one really dumb and annoying puzzle that involves screaming a word in a theater. I used the hint to beat it…and the author basically admits that he intended it that way. Oh well, other than that one hiccup, it’s great text-adventure fun.

Glad you liked it! I haven’t beaten it yet, but if we get snowed out of work tomorrow I know what I’m doing with my day off…
Nice link, Kevin(…and I thought “The Lords of Karma” was cool…). Actually, homestarrunner.com has a cute parody of video games (text-based included) at http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail.html (it’s the third e-mail from the top–the one entitled “video games”,natch)
