A parody of Sleeping Beauty and IF, September 28, 2017

This game casts you as The Packrat, and adventurer who is trying to fight their urges to take anything and everything they can get a hold of.

This is played up for laughs early on, but not so much later.

This game centers around 'guess the author's thoughts'-type puzzles, and as such is very difficult to finish unaided.

A ton of work went into this, but it could have used more polishing.
