[edit] Ways to Lose the Game
- Get fired. (Hang around in the south area too long.)
- Die. (Get killed by a monster; type die; die by plague; hold your breath too long; lose all hitpoints; tell the doctor "yes"; "talk healer" and die of endless questioning.)
[edit] Glitches
- Every time you type "get ye flask," you earn 2 points, regardless of whether or not you've already gotten yeself a flask.
- When you go north from the office, you are given the description of the office, but are really in the hallway as expected.
- The map you get in the game is slightly incorrect. The direction listed in bold has been left out: "West, West, North, West, North, North, North, East, East, North, East, North, North." (The map shown below is correct.)
- If you die, when you're asked "Play Again? [Y/N]", pressing N doesn't do anything.
- Right-click and save as on the Flash file. Once you have started the game, type something in. Do not erase it. Use the control options to rewind the game. Start it again. Once you are in the game again, type something else. There will be double the characters in whatever you type. (For example, typing in "Hello" would come out "HHeelllloo".) You can repeat this process as much as you like and the numbers of characters will grow one per each time.

[edit] Hints and Tips
- When talking to Ripberger, just use "talk ripberger" or "talk magistrate" in lowercase letters. Otherwise, the game may not recognize the command.
- Type "look map" at any time to view the map. note that you must ALREADY have the map before you can look at it.
- When fighting monsters in the maze, use the attack that starts with that monster's name. Therefore...
- Strike Longrels Low
- Strike Hongrels High
- Strike Mongrels Middlin
[edit] Walkthrough
At the beginning, "hold breath" (or "nose") and "get tinkle" (or "metal"), which is a key in the chamber pot. Don't forget to BREATHE. Type "breathe" or "release nose" or "unplug nose" or "let go nose" or "smell".
"get hay", which turns out to be moldy bread.
"open door" and go "south".
"look at david bowie" (optional).
"use key" to unlock the drawer.
"get map". "look map" to get the maze directions. It disintegrates, so you'll have to write them down.
Go "north" and "talk magistrate".
Go "north", where you'll find a rat with a nametag. "look at nametag" (his name is Percy) and "talk to percy". He'll offer you the plague.
Go "north", and you'll get the plague (this can't be avoided).
"get mop", as you will need it to fight off monsters.
Now follow the directions from the map (see above). If you'd like, you can stop to "mop" when you see stains (there's a stain in every room of the maze). This is completely optional, and you only earn "experience points" from doing this (which do not add to your point total.)
To kill the monsters use the strike with the same letter as the beginning of the monster's name (eg. "middlin" for Mongrel, "high" for Hongrel, and "low" for Longrel).
When you get to the kitchen, go "eastward" (you can't just type "east" or "e" here) to the infirmary.
"talk to doctor". Say "no" when he asks if you can wait. He'll saw off your plague, give you a sucker, and send you back to the kitchen. Do not talk to the healer; the doctor and the healer are separate entities.
"look at placard".
"get picture".
"talk to chef". He is really a Dongrel. "use picture" or "use sucker" to make Dongrel drop your mop, then "get mop" and "use mop" (if you never "talk to chef", you can skip straight to "use mop" and avoid losing 1 life).
"take emerald". Percy will show up. "take off loincloth" to kill him.
Note: On some browsers it is impossible to get the emerald, things will happen too fast.
You win and IT'S OVER!!

- When you enter your name, one of the things the game calls your name is "scrumtriliescent", which is a reference to Saturday Night Live's spoof of Inside the Actors' studio, wherein James Lipton (Will Ferrell) says "That show was delightful. No. No. It was brilliant. No, no, no, no. There is no word to describe its perfection, so I am forced to make one up. And I'm going to do so right now. Scrumtrilescent."
- Ripburger is also the name of a character from the Lucasarts game Full Throttle.
- The Enchantment under the Parapets dance may be a reference to the "Enchantment Under the Sea" dance in Back to the Future.
