Time-Killer #2 to be released this week


Wed, 11 Oct 1995 01:00:59 -0500

Time-Killer #2, "Grounded", is being beta-tested and will probably be
released no later than Oct 13th or 14th. As said before.. the
Time-Killer series are just small games to occupy some of your free time
with (hopefully) challenging puzzles. I must admit, T-K #1, in my
opinion, was a failure--sure, it has a few neat puzzles, but it's pretty
lacking, and a tad buggy. T-K #2 will be much more stable and flowing.
Watch for it (grounded.z5) on ftp.gmd.de.. it will either be in
/incoming/if-archive or /if-archive/games/infocom.

"But mom!" were your last words as you sat on your bed. She simply
shook her head and closed the door. "Stay out of trouble while I'm
gone," she said through the door, "or you'll be in even worse trouble!
Your father will be home soon." Then your mom left the house. Well,
it's time to get out of here and go to Billy's house, but how? Hmmm...

Bedroom
Your room is a mess. No matter how many times your mom complains about
it and orders you to clean it, you refuse to stoop to such a level!
This is a pretty plain room. All the pestering and begging in the world
couldn't make your parents get you better furniture (at the very least).
There's a bed here, a closed window, a few posters, a desk, and your
closet. The door to your room is to the east. How about getting out of
here and heading to Billy's house?

Your bedroom door is shut.

An Oriental rug lies on the floor.

You can also see your sagging bed and a closet (which is closed) here.
