I was looking through Indie Games'
Best Freeware Adventure Games of '08 in search of a quick adventure to play and I saw in the list a game titled
Everybody Dies. Intrigued by its name (and assuming it was a graphical adventure), I downloaded it. Turns out it's a work of interactive fiction, only the second of its kind that I've played.
It was well written, enticing and I had a great time with it, despite the seemingly crude interface. I was just wondering if anybody still plays (or writes) this type of game, or if you have any recommendations to share? I must admit, I'm not interested in playing any really hard, lengthy tales. The reason I liked
Everybody Dies so much was that it flowed so well from start to finish, and it was obvious where to go and what to do next. The accompanying pictures set the tone very nicely, too. Great art.
