This was a very small but beautifully-formed game. Although graphics and text were both minimal, everything necessary for an interesting experience was present, and my playthrough was very enjoyable, no matter how brief. The one thing that I would suggest is making the required placement of the ball clearer. From the description, it seems like it could stay where you find it, although with the small number of locations to try and an educated guess, finding the correct placement wasn't too difficult in the end.

I had wondered about the whole ball and the placement thing, might move it to under the stairs or vestibule, and then maybe tweak it’s description to give a bit more of a hint. Also I might change it so it can be on the stairs or by the tree, gives two options that logically make sense. Thanks for the feedback.
