    A work of interactive fiction.

    From IFwiki:

    • The original "one move" game. After the results of the player's command are displayed, the game pauses for a keypress, then returns the game back to the beginning so the player can make another choice.
    • Multiple endings. Although some endings are better than others, there is no best winning ending; the player is not playing to win or lose. Also, the endings, taken together, imply inconsistent past histories for the PC.
    • Puzzleless. The player is expected to explore the possibilities offered by the set-up. There is some emphasis on calling each variant a story, or part of a story.

  6. Metamorphoses

    Metamorphoses is a game about transformation and aspiration, set somewhere between our own reality and the world of forms. An exercise in simulationist IF, it offers multiple solutions to most puzzles and attempts to model interactions between objects of different sizes, shapes, and materials in a realistic way, including burning and the breakage of fragile objects.
