BydoEmpire & Andy: I was never very good at text adventure games. In fact, I think I was better at creating them than I was at playing them! And consequently, I never got very far in Zork either. I couldn't get into Hades & I was convinced that the game really ended there but that the developers didn't want you to know that! What can I say, I was a kid... it wasn't until many years later that I looked up how you get past the gate, but I still haven't played the game that far in order to try those instructions. I definitely plan to soon though.
