Planetfall by Steve Meretzky
As played on ifMUD on April 3, 2022 April 3, 2022

The idea behind ClubFloyd is that each week at a pre-arranged time, a group of people meet online to cooperatively play a game of interactive fiction.

Below is a transcript of Planetfall written by Steve Meretzky. Planetfall was released in 1983 by Infocom. Planetfall was released in 1983 by Infocom. You can learn more about the game, including how to download it, by visiting IFDB.

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.

CF | Another routine day of drudgery aboard the Stellar Patrol Ship
CF | Feinstein. This morning's assignment for a certain lowly Ensign
CF | Seventh Class: scrubbing the filthy metal deck at the port end of
CF | Level Nine. With your Patrol-issue self-contained multi-purpose
CF | all-weather scrub brush you shine the floor with a diligence born of
CF | the knowledge that at any moment dreaded Ensign First Class Blather,
CF | the bane of your shipboard existence, could appear.
CF |
CF | Deck Nine
CF | This is a featureless corridor similar to every other corridor on the
CF | ship. It curves away to starboard, and a gangway leads up. To port is
CF | the entrance to one of the ship's primary escape pods. The pod
CF | bulkhead is closed.

CF | > LOOK AT UNIFORM
CF |
CF | It is a standard-issue one-pocket Stellar Patrol uniform, a miracle of
CF | modern technology. It will keep its owner warm in cold climates and
CF | cool in warm locales. It provides protection against mild radiation,
CF | repels all insects, absorbs sweat, promotes healthy skin tone, and on
CF | top of everything else, it is super-comfy.
CF |
CF | > Jacqueline says, "Just when I think I've figured out how wide the display is for this game (more than 80 characters, certainly) I hit a new line that makes me change my window size."

CF | > Knight_Otu exclaims, "AKH!"
DavidW says, "ok, I thought I had more time there."
DavidW says, "And there's no UNDO."
DavidW asks, "Anyone else care to drive?"
Jacqueline says, "Okay, now I feel guilty for suggesting to wait."
Jade says, "I am preparing my diner"
Jacqueline asks, "That's wild how it gave us... was it just the warning before we slept?"
DavidW says, "yeah"
Jacqueline asks, "We really don't have much food, do we?"
Jacqueline says, "Like, is the game really just this short? I rather doubt it."
DavidW says, "Not much food, no, but I think you have to optimize and maybe find food. The spam and eggs can might be openable."
Knight_Otu says, "There was a warning around when we went back for the magnet, one when we went to sleep, and of course the warning when we woke up, I believe."
Roger says, "it's a grim future"
Knight_Otu says, "I don't think I'm up for driving today, but maybe next time we tackle Planetfall."
DavidW says, "There must be a way to carry more stuff."
DavidW says, "Maybe there's a backpack on the ship or something."
Jacqueline says, "I dunno, in the early days wasn't inventory management one of the joys, along with this daemons and ... man, I can't wait to see if this game has a maze."
DavidW says, "And maybe we need to tell Floyd to follow us so it isn't wandering on its own like that."
DavidW says, "I think the maze is when we shrink down onto the broken electronic board and fight the spider."
Jade says, "Floyd is playing with us"
DavidW says, "Or maybe the ameoba."
DavidW says, "We also need a lightsource somewhere."
Jade says, "I don't know what are you talking about."
DavidW says, "It's been 40 years or so since I played this game, but I still remember some things about it."
Jade says, "ah, of course, only 40 years"
DavidW says, "There's a helicopter. And there's a train that connects the two islands together."
DavidW asks, "so are we done for today?"
Roger says, "If the last save is a good place to leave it, sure"
DavidW says, "We can (hopefully) play a Spring Thing entry next week."
Jade says, "ok, thank you for your guide"
Jade says, "I have Planetfall in my TODO list"
Jacqueline says, "We're at two hours, so a pause here seems ideal."
Jacqueline exclaims, "Thank you for this glimpse, David!"
Jade says, "yes, thanks"
DavidW says, "I wonder if the brown goo tastes like meat or like chocolate."
olethros says, "chocolate chicken"
DavidW says, "I bet there is such a thing."
Roger says, "it's Mexican, I think"
olethros says, "yes, and it's tasty"
olethros says, "at least the home-made one I tried"
DavidW says, "oh, okay. nice."
