  • QUESTION: Whether this game is The Worst <3 ? OBJ. It would seem that this game is not The Worst <3 because it takes a stock, cliche, ZZT/MZX opener we're all familiar with, and makes it interesting. I ANSWER THAT, many titles might claim to be The Worst <3, but with the silly premise and design of ordinary tasks taking ridiculous amounts of time and an immanent alien invasion, not to mention a very detailed world with lots of other wonderful references, this game is the Worst <3. REPLY TO OBJ. Interesting, yes. But also, having the actual approximation of the monotony of doing chores as a kid, when all you want to do is go out and play? Interestingly TROLLY.
  • Framing this as a last-minute entry does disservice to what is a very tight and fully realized trollgame. I am still looking for endings 7 and beyond. I suspect I'm eventually going to have to open the game in a hex editor to find what I'm looking for. This was the only game that, after the contest ended, still managed to troll me one last time.

Not sure I've ever been so fed up with having to do chores.

Now this crosses over into malice. I would like to have a word with the protagonist's mother.
