Losing Play-Through
Now, for the morbidly curious, here's what a losing scenario might look like, starting from when you're in the garden:
(take chain)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lfe>
You are now carrying the chain.
(take frog)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lfe>
You are now carrying the frog.
You then perform all the other tasks that you would do in the winning scenario. Finally, you are ready to wake the wizard:
(inv)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lfe>
You are carrying the following:
- bucket
- frog
- chain
(splash wizard bucket)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lfe>
You have achieved the 'splash-wizard' goal!
The wizard awakens to see that you are in possession of his most precious --
and dangerous! -- frog.
He completely looses it.
As he waves his wand at you, everything disappears ...
Wondering what happened, you take a look around:
(look)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lfe>
Everything is misty and vague. You seem to be in the netherworld.
There are no exits.
You could be here for a long, long time ...
Nothing happens. You look some more:
(look)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lfe>
Everything is misty and vague. You seem to be in the netherworld.
There are no exits.
You could be here for a long, long time ...
Again, nothing. Another try ...
(look)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lfe>
Everything is misty and vague. You seem to be in the netherworld.
There are no exits.
You could be here for a long, long time ...
And as you're wondering what's going on, after a few seconds, you see this:
From deep in the mists, you hear a familiar intonation ...
Great relief washes over you, as you recognize the time-travel spell -- you're
not doomed!
After a few more seconds you see this:
Confident that you will never pick up the frog again, things get a bit fuzzy.
You start to lose consciousness as the wizard pulls you back in time. Your
last thought is that you're probably not going to remember any of this ...
Finally, you are back where you started:
You are in the living-room of a wizard's house. There is a wizard snoring
loudly on the couch.
You see a whiskey-bottle on the ground. You see a bucket on the ground.
There is a door going west from here. There is a stairway going upstairs from
here.
Now you have the chance to play the game again, but this time without taking the power-frog!
