Swearing in a text adventure? I'm pretty sure nobody's ever done that!

I remember typing "BREAK WINDOW" when playing Robin of Sherlock and being told not to swear, before the game being reset. :roll:

Not exactly how "break wind" can be classed as swearing, but there you go...

You are in SCUNTHORPE, which is most definitely not in Asgard.
There is a sign to a small village in Austria (about 25 miles north of Salzburg).

Mary is not amused.
Thor hits her with a big hammer.
Gandalf says "Hurry up."
Thor reminds Gandalf that he's in the wrong game.
Loki steals Gandalf's hat.
Gandalf zaps Loki with his wand.
Loki gives Gandalf's hat back.
Gandalf leaves.
Heimdall grumbles about being stuck on Bifröst again.
One of Hel's legs falls off.
Thor drinks some mead.
Thor is drunk and staggers into Grimor's lair.
Grimor reminds Thor that he's now in the wrong game himself.
Gandalf enters.
Gandalf, Thor and Grimor all look at each other, not quiet believing what has happened.
Something disrupts the chuntey.
Mary, Thor, Gandalf, Loki, Heimdall, Hel and Grimor all disappear into a singularity.

You have completed 0% of this adventure.
Spectribution: Dr. Jim's Sinclair computing pages.
Features my own programs, modified type-ins, RZXs, character sets & UDGs, and QL type-ins... so far!

Minder. Not exactly a text adventure, it's classed as a strategy game, but sue me.

It's quite funny if you swear in that...

Quest for the golden eggcup was great for swearing. You'd end up being thrown in a dungeon and have to figure out how to escape.
