How It Begins
You're on a quest to retrieve the last known toaster in the universe, a quest which has ended in you being trapped in a cavern along with your prize. Around you, you see the toaster on its unclimbable thirty-foot pillar of rock, a coyote skeleton, a rocket pack, and no way out. You're carrying nothing. Your loyal assistant, Walter, waits hopefully at the cave's entrance.
Notable Features
- Very short, meta joke game.
- The puzzles were intended to be unsolvable unless the player used Inform's debugging verbs, which were deliberately left on in the release.
