lol, loved that one of the "obvious exits" was "over there" (also thisaway and thataway) and then the zombie twist: "so yeah. you're a zombie now. that sucks."
only 3.68 SHVP points? =/ It's cuz of the zombie-fail, isn't it?
Need theme ideas, eh? How about "behind the scenes" where your video is done like an extra feature on a DVD. Like commentary over a past video.
I played a few games like that on my ex-aunt's computer. She was addicted. I actually recently found a few open-source, text role playing games online.
That was a great video, Matt. I like playing interactive fiction sometimes, though I don't think I'd like a game with capital letters giving all the objects and locations away :)
Not a bad idea, they could use Google Translate into the unknown language and then viewers could use it to translate back and see how close they got to the original intent... it would probably be amusing, actually.
ya, I had a similar one, except it was "Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego?" It even came with an encyclopedia to look up clues and such. Didn't play it much, but I at least tried.
I loved this :D We used to have this battered BBC computer from the eighties (which I think one day exploded) and I used to spend hours on games like this. Especially one based on 'Alice Through the Looking Glass'. Favourited for spooky childhood memories =)
Dude, that was fawesome. It brought me back to my childhood. And, of course, the subtly witty patter got me as usual. :-P

haha, these types of games always annoyed me. I could never figure out what to do. But yours is awesome :)

i had a feeling that you would go with a text based game.
I always sucked at them, I always got stuck about half an hour in.
Bad theme idea: do a video in a language that you don't know and have never studied. (I need to take a class on theme suggestions)

This reminds me of the Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? game that I had in elementary school. :)
