It is recommended for adult audiences only. --- You play as Colonel J.T. Thomas. --- The game is played via text input. You can move the player around by typing in directions (GO NORTH or, simply, N). Other actions are allowed, like EXAMINE (to have a description of things surrounding you -- we strongly suggest you do it as much as possible), TAKE or GET <thing> (to take possession of objects found in the game), PUSH, PULL and even ATTACK what you wish.
