Country House

COUNTRY HOUSE is illustrated, interactive fiction. The environment and characters are - on the whole - historically credible. They didn't exist in eighteenth century Sweden, but they could have done so. You move and get informations the usual interactive way, that is by typing commands and clicking objects. You are not to collect swords to kill monsters or to search keys to unlock doors. There will be a few ghosts and some supernatural events here. But you won't risk your life, neither by hunger nor thirst. A fall through a window won't hurt you much. You can study a map whenever you like, but it will reveal no secrets. Your task is to gather information, to do historical research. COUNTRY HOUSE 1.0 is developed in StoryMaker 1.0 by James Burton. The game is distributed as freeware. It's my first attempt in this genre. People who try it and decide to keep it are requested to send comments. Eva Vikstrom Stockholm, March 2001 e-mail: [email protected]
