QOTW: “Well, the >TWIRL MOUSTACHE (cool thing you can’t believe the author implemented) along with the sensation of coming up with a solution to a puzzle in everyday life and racing back to the game to try it out are the two things that make IF the best genre of game, IMO. I don’t know that I’d personally want to create a game that robbed the player of a chance for either of those two things. But I also believe there’s grammar in all kinds of games – the gun that shoots nuclear missiles in Fallout 3 being unable to take out the wall of a building is just as bogus as a text game not understanding an adverb.” — Robb Sherwin
