Reviews

A series of three games set in the Dutch elite school "Murmellius Gymnasium", written by VDSB. Murmellius I involved stealing the teachers' notebooks in order to change fail grades into pass grades. Murmellius II is described here. Murmellius III had the notable feature of Vice School Director Dumpling, who couldn't stand pupils who smacked while eating. This would cause him to jump up and pearce the ceiling, after which his body would be hanging from the ceiling, and his head would be visible on the floor in whatever room was directly above.

No copies of Murmellius I or Murmellius III have been recovered so far - if you have any, please submit them to the IfArchive [[1]]!
