Found this interesting series of blog posts about fallthru, a text adventure game I tried playing for the first time I think in 1999. I've never had the patience to get very far in it because it's literally huge, but I've often wondered what it would be like if I did.
Now I don't have to, since this person completed it and went into quite a lot of detail about it.
Note that most of the in game text is shown in screenshots with no alt text.
Nice to see that Michael feir and the Audyssey magazine got a mention because that was pretty much the only place I saw anything about it before this, and I forgot that he interviewed the developer. https://crpgaddict.blogspot.com/search/label/Fallthru #InteractiveFiction#RPG#textAdventure

Ce sont des cèpes déshydratés, dans un mélange d'huiles et d'épices. C'est super bon !
Ok ok ça vient de loin et c'est mal pour la planète, le climat, toussa...
Mais bon, j'assume, je compense sur d'autres trucs... c'est MuM qui commande la bouffe chinoise, pour se sentir un peu moins déracinée.
J'approuve ! Quand tu passes juste un mois en Chine, une bouteille de pastis, du bon vin, un St Marcelin, un magret Rossini... tu pleures !

Hallo zusammen,
eine E-Mail von Chris habt ihr es zu verdanken, dass ich heute einen neuen Download bereit gestellt habe, nämlich das "Best of MD No 1" - eine Zusammenfassung mehrerer Artikel des Midgard-Digest, die einst (1999) als Sammelband im Eigenverlag veröffentlicht wurde.
Den Download findet ihr hier: https://www.drosi.de/latex/Best_of_MD_01.pdf
Viel Spaß damit!
Liebe Grüße

The deep void of outer space calls to you in Hypersleep Terminated, a GM-less, short-play, RPG about waking up from hypersleep to a space disaster. Can you survive? #rpg#ttrpg
MANY years ago, I backed a #Kickstarter for a set of dwarven #Miniatures. They've always been a lower priority than everything else. But tonight, I came really close to finishing one of the best from the set -- the Undead Dwarf.
This is without washes, but with a rust effect on his armor. Next stop: #ArmyPainter Soft Tone for the bones and Dark Tone for everything else. Then #Valleo Matte Varnish.
The pill-box keychain filled with pill-sized dice is going to be on my person all the time. And for "formal occasions" (like gaming conventions) the pendant filled with them will be around my neck and ready for action.

"Artists/Designers receive 1 Euro per shirt sold"
"By having your shirt appear on Qwertee you just give us permission to sell your design for one day only."
Heu... il y a des t-shirts qui sont en vente depuis plus d'un jour... j'ai bien compris ou ils ne respectent pas leur propre charte ?
Je crois pas que Couerti soient réellement des gens sympathiques. Les derniers que j'ai connu qui versaient quelque chose aux créateurs (à part un sourire entendu), c'était le Goéland. Mais il est mort mazouté.
The players take part of a big historical event, like WW2. Although they cannot change the issue of the war, what happens to them and their individual fates is entirely in their power.
Would you consider this railroading or have the players keep their agency, just they have little agency on the world itself?
@ninoles It a player decided to shoot at the sun would you say they lacked agency because they couldn't kill it?
Railroading is when players lack agency. Not being able to stop a world war from being waged (or single handedly winning it) is no more railroading than not being able to shoot out the sun.
@bookstodon@thevglibrary Three for nostalgia is one of my favourite of the series, but after playing it later in life I quite enjoyed playing Four a lot. Felt it improved on the previous game in some ways
@pbaesse por aqui a cultura nerd se organizou bastante com a criação e iniciativa da associação alagoana de rpg. Eles que puxam eventos e parcerias, movimentando a cena do rpg e as outras :-)
