Which begs the question - which game is WIWC playing?

The 'correct one' as the scoring is broken in the Walter Pooley game. :)

Go on then, I'm game. Though given the title I'm already anticipating the 'You are thirsty', 'You have died of thirst' messages... :?

Perhaps a new thread?

Oh god, this is horrendous...! It's already got multiple ticks in the "Morkin's adventure dislikes" boxes and I've only seen about 5 locations.

Not only did I get thirsty almost immediately, but I got thirsty milliseconds after quenching my thirst. Loads of objects, and an object carry limit, well that's fun. Areas of darkness and my torch runs out whilst desperately trying to shift another billion objects away from the dark room, while constantly wasting turns sipping water. :evil:

I'm giving up before I start trying to figure out which swear words it understands... Oh, too late, I've started already.. :cry:

[mention]WIWC[/mention] how could you foist this pain upon us...

Most of the items seems to be useless, anyway.

I'm giving it a generous and solid 1/10.

I'm not sure about that, I'm still in therapy after playing it.
