How It Begins
WARNING 1: The game contains fictionalised versions of real people. The NPCs are unlike their real-life counterparts.
WARNING 2: The game contains explicit spoilers for Infidel by Infocom. Elements of Zork and Infidel are used with permission.
You are a male freelance programmer and enthusiastic IF player, playing Infidel on your PalmPilot in a McDonalds restaurant in Miami Beach, Florida. A vagrant seems inordinately interested in your PalmPilot. You just want to lie low from the government (you've been investigating UFOs) and solve the puzzle in the Slab Room that's been stumping you for the last sixteen years.
