How it begins
You are (probably) a male teenager, carrying nothing, in "your prison"—in other words, your bedroom. You've been grounded by your mom for not doing your chores. That sucks. Fortunately, Mom's gone to the store, which gives you your chance to leave the house, too.
Notable features
- Very buggy game. Bugs include the infinite point bug, the have your cake and eat it too bug, and the elided puzzle bug.
- Room names are more metaphoric or prose-like than traditional room names. For example, instead of "Attic" and "Kitchen", we get "Antique Roadshow heaven" and "A pleasant aroma is coming from the stove" respectively.
