This was so old school and I LOVED IT. It reminded me of this other game called Buddy Simulator 1984.  Really cool game and interesting story. I wish the jam star rating system let us have more flexibility in stars when submissions don't have one of the rating criteria (Voice Acting).

It's a fun headscratcher with a clear atmosphere but I wish it were a bit more obvious what keyword actions Adam can take because it can be a bit annoying to get him to do what you want.

Hey CuteShadow, thank you for playing our game and the feedback! The commands and objects/locations are always defined in gray, but you're right, that could be designed a little better!
