Can you escape (game/test)

[Gamesmaster]

AIBU to try this 'game'? - I think it could be fun.

Locked upstairs in a house, you need to escape.

Rules, only one instruction per person until the correct action has been identified.

I've already 'written' the way to escape - if it works then I will write a fuller version to play a different evening.

For example: (player/you) Open Window:

(me) There are no windows.

Take the table from the other room and use it to stand on to feel if there's a loft hatch in the ceiling of the new room.

Use your phone's torch

absolutely ScreamingValenta - Zork was one we played.

ScreamingValenta - no idea of the name but yes that's exactly what I was thinking of but had no idea of the game name!

This room appears to be empty.

Ooh good one Plate

Find ceiling hatch

You return to the first room and drag the table through to the dark room

you cant reach the ceiling to check for a loft hatch

Find another door

check under table in first room for floor hatch

Well, what next?? Nothing round walls - what about under carpet?

I play a game like this on Alexa called ‘escape the room’ or something like that!

There were loads of different games for the '64 - happy memories!

(If your next post says SYNTAX ERROR we will know - you are in fact a Commodore 64, OP . )

stand on table

You try moving the carpet but cant see what you are doing

Feel round to see if there is a fireplace.

Go back to the first room and look for a source of light

check table for drawer.

Check first room for matches or similar

you stand on table

Use the torch light on your phone to see what you're doing

What can we see, op?

Check your pockets - matches or lighter or candles etc in there?

You check first room for a source of light but cant find anything

Why are we on the table if we can’t reach the ceiling?

—if you were Lara Croft there would be a medi pack and torch in the corner—
