As some of the other comments have mentioned, I couldn't figure out how to start the game. But luckily the link works great. I see that you used the arrow symbol in the game, but I'm not sure what game you based it on yet! Also It would be helpful to know which direction I last came from (I kept running in circles :D). You also have a cool feature where you can travel to a location just by typing its name. I couldn't remember the locations word for word though! Maybe a list on the side somewhere could help?
All in all I thought it was a cool experience! I think the storytelling and art style worked well together and it had an aura of mystery. It reminds me of "A Dark Room" but you also have a nifty feature at the bottom of the screen. Text based games seem to give players only a few options, usually in the form of buttons, but instead your game has a search bar type feature and it lets players have more freedom
