I had long wanted to create a game of my own, as a kid I teamed up with my best friend to attempt to build an indie-game using another friend's uni student email. It never worked out. Just recently I discovered Twine while researching how to become a quest writer, so I downloaded the software and began making a short text-based adventure mini-game in the style of Zork, it took me a day to create. I hope you enjoy.

I published the file to a free Twine hosting service.
Cheers!
