You play as a NASA intern in the 1960s, working on the Apollo 11 project.

Everything goes very well, and you have no difficulties at all.

A work of interactive fiction created by Joey & Charity Parrish for the GitHub Game Off 2020.


Tips:

  • If you have never played an old-school text-based adventure game or a MUD, type "help" to get a gentle introduction to the sorts of things you can do.
  • Type "verbs" to get a quick reference list of the actions you might need to complete the game.  Nobody likes solving the puzzle of "what exact phrase should I type".
  • For casual play, try typing "easy mode", and the game will highlight interesting objects for you.
  • Everyone has a name!  Get to know the characters by typing "ask about name" or "talk" for suggestions on topics to ask them about.
  • Some actions involve luck.  Feel free to try something more than once if you don't succeed.
  • You can type "undo" to undo any action, including one that results in the game ending.
  • You can also type "save" to save your game and "restore" to load a save.
  • The game takes place over three days, the third of which is a sort of epilogue.
  • There are 9 ways to end the game, 3 of which count as winning.  You can even die before you leave the first room if you're dedicated.  :-)
  • There are many hidden items and fun extras, so explore and try things!
  • If you get lost, there is a map.  https://joeyparrish.github.io/moonshot/Map.svg
