Short, but enjoyable and clever, February 16, 2015When I first fired this up I wasn't sure what to make of it. It seemed to be just telling a non-interactive story. However, the game's smarter than that and it's worth the short playthrough for the clever (I thought) twist at the end.

A moral lesson, experiment, or thoughtpiece as an Inform game, September 19, 2018I found this game to be touching. It's an online-only Inform game that asks you to make a certain moral choice.
It has a unique sort of interactivity that is only available in an online game. Due to the specific response I got, I'm not sure if this kind of interactivity is still operational.
It is short, and deals with the nature of story vs. game (among other things).

The Chinese Room is a hilarious romp through the world of philosophical thought experiments. Have you ever wanted to win Zeno's race? Free the denizens of Plato's Cave? Or find out what it's really like to be a bat? Now is your chance!
