While waiting for the other game, we started The Lurking Horror by Infocom‘s Dave Lebling. Boy does it have done intense and good writing!#interactivefiction #retrogaming

Our CRT screen displacing the text adventure where we managed to log onto the PC.

We also tried waiting and maiming the man with our other tools. But it invariably ended fatally.

    It took us the #invisiclues to look into the access panel! It was so obvious.#lurkinghorror #interactivefiction

    We find a flashlight in the elevator access panel.

    And what do you know! The flashlight opens up a couple of before unknown rooms!

    We are in the basement, discovering the dead storage, full of rotting pallets of junk.

    And now the forklift comes into play. This puzzle is actually very straightforward and logical. But the fact we have to move the pallets four or five times is a bit excessive…

    We move the rotten pallets using the forklift.

    We discover a manhole (conveniently opened with the crowbar) that leads down to another level of basement or maybe sewers. It leads to a cave with an ominous slab. I bet this is an altar for sacrifices. Isn’t it?

    We are in a renovated cave with a three foot high round slab made from granite.
