How it begins

You wake up into the night and hear a terrible sound of a telephone ring. "I have no time for explaining the reasons, but you must trust me," a male voice tells you. "You're in a great danger, so you'd better get your stuff and get out. If you don't do that quickly enough you will be dead. They're coming for you. Go now!"

Notable features

• The game begins with a stringent, instant-death timed puzzle.
• The "about" command takes a turn to execute, so you can lose the game by typing "about" several times.
• Sparse implementation of nouns and verbs.
• There is at least one maze.
