Below is a transcript of Scary House Amulet!, written by Shrimpenstein. Scary House Amulet! was released as part of the 2002 Interactive Fiction Competition, where it took 31st place. You can learn more about the game, including how to download it, by visiting the ifWiki.WARNING! Below you will find a transcript of people playing this game, and it goes without saying that the transcript is full of spoilers. So, if you've never played this game, and think you might like to at some point, I do not recommend reading any further. Instead, you might want to return to the interactive fiction page. |

Light from Floyd | the full moon casts strange shadows behind you and the dark forest Floyd | engulfing this area. The road you came from is west. Floyd | Floyd | As you pass out of the gate, it closes shut! You've retrieved the Floyd | amulet! Floyd | Floyd | But wait! It's glowing! Its shape is changing, becoming longer and Floyd | thinner and curving into a C... Floyd | Floyd | Suddenly the object's glow parts from it, shooting with a flash toward Floyd | the house and disappears! You are now just standing on an ordinary road Floyd | at night before a tall gate. Floyd | Floyd | And in your inventory, you see... A HOOK! Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | *** You have won *** Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | In that game you scored 8 out of a possible 8, in 348 turns. Floyd | Floyd | Would you like to RESTART, RESTORE a saved game or QUIT? Floyd | > | Jacqueline exclaims, "rock!" | |||
| inuredbyheavyrain says, "Damn, I cannot satisfy my curiousity." | ||||
| Ellison says, "yay hooks" | ||||
| Tale asks, "Why shiny, why a hook?" | ||||
| inuredbyheavyrain says, "Fun game, good sense of humor about itself." | ||||
| Ellison says (to Tale), "shiny things are known for distracting the easily distracted. Adam Cadre's Lock & Key starts out with a similar puzzle." | ||||
| DavidW says, "'you see... A HOOK' is an old ifmud meme, I think." | ||||
| DavidW says, "Probably a previous game had the line." | ||||
| Ellison says, "yeah, we used to make a lot of 'And at the end of the BLANK.. was a HOOK!' jokes" | ||||
| Ellison says, "which refers to an old ghost story" | ||||
| Rotonoto says, "So ... what do you think? Some kind of parody of old games? An inept adventure? It was surprisingly fun (till the bat part)." | ||||
| inky says, "ha ha" | ||||
| Rotonoto says, "Oh yeah, that old ghost story." | ||||
| Tale says, "Oh, that hook story" | ||||
| Tale says, "Been fun to Floyd for once and not only hear about it." | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "yay Tale." | ||||
