Wow I haven't played anything quite like this before. I can't even tell how the game can tell when I'm making a joke its like magic. Nicely done!

This is such a cool idea and not something I've seen the like of before. It's very impressive, great job!

Interesting. It's definitely one of the more unique games in the jam, even though it has nothing to do with the theme. I find that it's tough to get the balancing act right on these kinds of games. I don't know what's actually going on behind the scenes, and it's pretty cool that it works at all, but still it often doesn't understand what I'm saying, even if what I'm saying should satisfy the prompt and extra word. This is probably why most text-adventure games don't give you a limited amount of turns like this game, it would be too annoying. That said, I did enjoy my time here and the system where you have to have a set word is really cool. At it's best, the game made me think of how I could appropriately include the extra word with the prompt. In those moments the core concept really shone through. Overall, I'm glad I played this one, it's very unique and interesting.

lots of potential!

Very cool gameplay. First time seeing something like this. I think I see potential in this idea. You could build a lot of stuff using this game as a base. Great work with this game..

Kudos!!

Very engaging concept,  I would've loved to see what you had planned if you got to make the full scope of the game!  One problem I did have was that my subordinate just kept talking about staplers?  I'm not sure if what he says has any impact on the objectives.

hey!, unfortunately I couldn't play beyond the first message. I got this error: "http/1.1 400 bad request", I tried with other browsers and nothing :c, I wanted to play because the concept looked interesting and funny :D

A very unique concept! Made me laugh, particularly when the voice said "Iii like torstai dance" - didn't know there were rally English voice synths! I guess the storm was gonna be Milton after he got fired. Also, thanks for reminding me of this movie!

This is such an amazing idea! It feels really well-polished too. This is very creative and I feel like it could make a fun party game where you compete with your friends to get the biggest laughs. Probably my favourite game so far.
