Is it normal for text adventures you just have to try random stuff? I had no clue how to get design. I thought I had missed a clue from the developer maybe. Turned out I just needed to enter a command that was not introduced before, or listed in the help page.
For folks that haven't played text adventures in a long time, check out the annual interactive fiction competition winners for some great modern ones: http://www.ifcomp.org. They're meant to be played in about an hour, have hints, and usually don't rely on cheap deaths or other frustrating tropes of old games.

I tried to `ask richard stallman about gnu`, among other things, but it wouldn't work. Also, I'd stop the blurring effect after a while, that really grated on me. I'd love to have time to try it properly.
Sorry can't play it, makes my eyes go funny. Can you turn that text blur off or down?

Edit: Hmm, after playing a little, the shadow is in more places... Already did too much js and css (and go) today to bother, so leaving it for tomorrow.
