How it begins

You are Clueless Bob Newbie, author of the world's worst text adventures, but you think they're the best. You woke up this morning to a vicious newspaper article that vilely slandered you and your games, calling them dire, buggy, and uninspired.

Livid, you now find yourself in the lobby of the newspaper offices, carrying nothing. You see a bored receptionist sitting behind her desk, a ringing phone, bundles of ancient newspapers, and stairs going up. You will have your revenge on this newspaper.

Trivia and Comments

  • This game is listed on some sites as simply This Time It's Personal.
