Stooopid Hamlet text game

[e_juliana]

Hrmph. I'm stuck. I've picked up everything I've seen, gotten thrown off the horse, given the audition form to the gravedigger, gone to england and back, given the witch 3 out of the 4 items she needs from me, sharpened the scissors....

I need something for Gertrude to drink, I need money, I need proof of royalty, and I need a way around Othello.

hrrrmph. Any hints?

Damned Addictive Text Game

Damn, this is addictive. Easier than the HGTTG text game though. So far.

Spoke too soon -- Othello just killed me. Oops!

I'm stuck too - although I didn't give the witch all of that stuff yet.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern cracked me up.

My guess is, if you give the horse to Richard he'll give you proof of royalty... but I haven't figured out how to get the horse out of the stable.

Hrmmm, I haven't tried thwacking it with the shovel yet. I'd better save the game before I try that.

Do you have the shovel yet? That's useful for all sorts of things....

[joemorf.livejournal.com]

I have the shovel, but I haven't used it for much yet.

I thought it might be useful for clearing the stables... but I can't seem to come up with a command that will let me do that.

There are two places in Denmark that need to be poked with the shovel. Just don't actually ever GIVE the horse anything.

Once I dug up a carrot in the garden, the horse followed me...

Damn you Juliana!! This is sooo addictive! And I suck at it. I have yet to encounter the witch.

[e-juliana.livejournal.com]

Heh.

Just remember - every object has its use. Except for the damn postcard.

The witch is in England.

How much further have you made it since you posted? I'm still looking for something to drink that Gertrude won't refuse... but I'm still missing an ingredient for the witch and can't get past Othello. The shovel came in very handy, thanks. But now I'm stuck again at 68%.

Also, fighting Laertes is bad news.

Damn, and I was going to get stuff done today, too.

Gertrude is one of the last things you deal with (Laertes being the last).

I've actually gotten all the way through now.

Have you made it to the back room of the inn?

[joemorf.livejournal.com]

I made it there, but couldn't figure out what to do with her once I found her. I figure she has to be the key to getting past Othello... my next trick is to try playing the flute for her.

I have no idea where I am going to find eye of newt.

The game is cracking me up - I love the reaction to Ophelia's Peter Pan...

DOn't worry about the newt just yet.

HAve you looked in the kitchen? There's things of importance there....
