This is just one of the best text adventure games I've ever played, on top of being super approachable for newcomers to the genre. The opening lines alone make me giddy. I don't feel I have anything new to say about it, but this is just in case somebody on Itch randomly ended up here and needed a recommendation.

Estimated length should be between one hour and an hour and a half, I think.
