On Tuesday, September 28, 2021, 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.
Captain Cutter’s Treasure (2021) by Garry Francis
In this game, you play as Jim, a tavern worker who wakes up in the broom closet. You soon learn that, years ago, the pirate captain, Cutter, had his former crewmates (including your boss, Harold) hide a treasure for him, and now he wants it back. Return the treasure by sunset or else Harold’s daughter, Brenda, will suffer the consequences.
This game was an entry in PunyJam #1 where it took 1st place.
J’dal (2012) by Ryan Kinsman
In this adventure game, you play as a young black woman named J’dal, born on the other side of the sunset. Everyone else here is white. You, Dad (who adopted you years ago), the experimenter Stolas (who Dad met when turnside), and the thug Roderick have been hired to find an artifact hidden in the mine west of town. They need you for your superior night vision.
This game was an entry in IF Comp 2012 where it took 16th place.
Kook U (1997) by sbfaq
In this silly but very rude game, you’re the Network Administrator at Kook University. It’s your job to restart the Network whenever it’s down, but Dean F. L. Uffy also demands that you stop the USENET Abuse by six terrible students or else you’re out of a job!
Content warnings: profanity, drug use, comedic deaths and murder, references to illegal forms of pornography, and horrible poetry.
Danny Dipstick (2021) by Garry Francis
In this small game, you play as Danny Dipstick, a dork who’s had no success picking up chicks at the local nightclub, but tonight will be different. With your neighbour’s advice, you will fix your problems, you will talk to a nice girl, and you will get her phone number.
This game was an entry in ParserComp 2021 where it took 13th place.
Eight Miles High (2014) by Josh Giesbrecht (as “Lambert Lambert”)
In this short choice-based game inspired by a song lyric, you play as someone who arrives at an airport, then takes a limo to some street. You’re not sure where you are and it’s hard to focus in all this rain.
This game was a participant in the first ShuffleComp event.
Sohoek Ekalmoe (2020) by Caleb Wilson
In this short story, you play as a plant called Sohoek Ekalmoe, “one who sunders the paving stones”. Your enemies cast you into this deep shaft a year ago, but now it’s your season to grow.
This story was written for NarraScope 2020.
