How it begins

You awaken on a beach. The author remarks that you are supposed to have amnesia. However you do not.

Notable features

The author continually interrupts to tell you how cliched and laughable the various game elements are. He even points out which areas of the game should get him extra points (in IF Comp), hoping that his lack of experience and young age will elicit sympathy from his audience.
