I think my favorite part of text adventures is the amount of imagination they invoke. Something about testing commands, reading the short descriptions and response really gets my imagination flowing, unlike, say, a long winded visual novel or even a book. Not that those are bad (I like visual novels in general, and books are fine) but they often tell or show too much for the same level of personal interpretation. 

What I played through was interesting! SPOILERS ------ You are warned, stop here  ------- I got as far as holding the little man, but couldn't really figure out how to interact with him from there. I did try to eat him though, with no luck. ^_^;

Nice work! Even if I'm not very good at them, I do enjoy these type of games.

I love text adventures (and especially fantasy-themed ones), but I'm not very good at the ones where you have to type in commands to get around.

To play the game I had to figure out that I needed to download a special program from this site:

http://www.davidkinder.co.uk/glulxe.html and then click on the "downloaded" hyperlink to get the WinGlulxeInstaller to play the game. (Then afterwards I saw on the game page you could play the game in the browser). 

I like how the game lets you customize the font and has text-to-speech options. I liked how the description of the scene used lots of adjectives. The opening scene in general is very interesting (why are you locked in this room? etc).

As far as gameplay, I only got as far as taking the bedding, opening the strongbox and reaching my hand  into the hole. But after that I couldn't figure out what to do next. 

After viewing the game page I saw a list of other commands to try, but I feel like these commands should be shown somewhere in-game, by typing "help" or something.

After typing in so many commands, the original scene description has gone off-screen. I did see that one could click a button to bring up a window of all the previous text, but I think it would be more convenient if the game screen itself had a scrolling option.
