The Doohickey Game (SG)
« on: July 24, 2024, 08:22:54 pm »

In the Void, thoughts coalesce and mix, it has been eons since you have had a body, all you can remember is the sound of other minds in a silent cacophony.

Until you all see a cube. It is palm-sized, a small screen has the number "9" on it. You hear "Stage 1" in your mind. Well, everything you hear is in your mind.

You see that there is an enticing red button on another side. You only have 2 choices.

1) Press it
2) Do not

2) Do not

Action is a defeat of our will, you surrender control to the designer by pressing.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

You wait a beat without pressing the red button, the number on the screen now reads "3."

The button is now green.

1) Press it

You finally presses the button, but you just see an "X" on the screen before it changes to the number "8". The button is also now red. You feel mild annoyance.

1) Press it
2) Do not
3) Do something complex (Write-in)
