Btw, Tet's choice was great! :-D It was kinda "Yeah, the rose is enough. Let's get serious now." ;)

Poor @Blubbo_Baggins
You have my apologies. I never set up WTF this game was. I just assumed you all had played such things growing up. It's based off of all those text-based games like ZORK and ENCHANTER or even PLANETFALL or THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE UNIVERSE and LEATHER GODDESS OF PHOBOS. You usually only wrote 2-4 words about things you wanted to do on average. Stuff like LOOK, EXAMINE STATUE, USE SWORD ON ORC, etc.

I'll try to adjust your inquiries to emulate a more proper manner of how they would appear in such a game. And FWIW these games were quite crude and highly frustrating when they came out due to the simplicity and limitations of their design.

>ASK PRINCESS ABOUT MARRIAGE

>ASK PRINCESS ABOUT HELPING HER
I'M SORRY. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU WISH TO ASK THE PRINCESS.

Hint: This response usually means that the last part of the statement isn't something the game recognizes.
