(Note: This is supposed to be frustrating. I do actually play the role of the computer, and the computer wants clear, precise commands. The HELP option is always around, so if you have no clue what to do, just ask for HELP(caps optional, computer reads both). Also, this is a CYOA, which means anyone can post a command and it'll be accepted.)

WELCOME TO THE GAME. YOU INTERACT WITH THE COMPUTER. THE COMPUTER SYSTEM DOES NOT UNDERSTAND COMPLICATED COMMANDS, SO KEEP THINGS SIMPLE. WHEN YOU WISH TO SURVEY YOUR SURROUNDINGS, SIMPLY SAY "LOOK". IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO EXAMINE A SPECIFIC OBJECT, SAY "LOOK [OBJECT]". WHEN ATTEMPTING TO USE AN OBJECT, SIMPLY SAY "USE [OBJECT]". WHEN DOING AN ACTION, SIMPLY SAY "PICK UP/GET IN/DRIVE TO [NAME]". IF HELP IS REQUIRED, SIMPLY SAY "HELP". INVENTORY IS ACCESSIBLE AT ANY TIME VIA COMMAND "INVENTORY".

YOU FIND YOURSELF IN A ROOM.

LOOK AT ROOM

[The Gambler]

THE ROOM IS SMALL, ALMOST CRAMPED. IT IS HARD TO SEE, BUT YOU CAN FAINTLY MAKE OUT THE IMAGE OF A SMALL BED IN ONE CORNER OF THE ROOM, WITH NO SHEETS AND NO PILLOW. BESIDE THE BED IS A WOODEN DESK, ON TOP OF IT A WHITE QUILL IN A HALF-EMPTY INK BOTTLE. ACROSS THE ROOM, THERE LIES A BOOK, OPEN ON ITS SIDE, ONE FACE LEANING AGAINST THE WALL AND THE OTHER ON THE FLOOR. THERE ARE NO WINDOWS AND NO DOORS VISIBLE.

Examine Bed

[The Gambler]

YOU TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT THE BED. THE MATTRESS IS TOUGH, BUT IF NOTHING ELSE WERE AVAILABLE, YOU WOULD RATHER SLEEP ON IT THAN THE FLOOR. THE FRAME IS MOSTLY MADE OF WOOD, SMOOTHED AND POLISHED. TAKING A QUICK PEEK UNDER THE BED, YOU SEE A SMALL OBJECT THAT YOU CANNOT MAKE OUT.

Move Bed

[The Gambler]

THE BED APPEARS TO BE STUCK TO THE FLOOR. IT WILL NOT MOVE.
