Puzzle is broken, July 15, 2023

The game is super brief. For an interactive fiction, it seems very sparse and inadequate. I don't know if there's much content to it as I won with simple trick of brute force, and hence it may have spoiled so much. Nonetheless, it seems I checked out everything and indeed, there isn't much in the game other than a room and the stuff inside it.

The game logic is not tight. (Spoiler - click to show)I simply used the brute force method of taking all and a key appeared in my inventory. I tested it on cabinets and drawers, and it finally worked on the window. That's how I got the win.

I think it is worth mentioning that the comp category required that the game was made in less than 3 hours.

Yes, of course. I think if s/he used TADS/Adv3lite, this wouldn't have happened because it bans brute force commands by default.
