aww..the grue got me. it's not bad though, well written with minimal mistakes
The ending made laugh. Man, those Zork games are awesome, well any text adventure really. This was written pretty much like them, except the puzzles were very strait forward, no exploration at all, just go here and then go there. I like it though, so I'm giving you a six.
ZORK! I used to love that game, and dread the words, "You are likely to be eaten by a grue." All that was missing was a battle axe and troll. Pretty short but fun. A little explanation on the riddle part would be nice for people who don't understand. Nice work.
I liked the part where I got to attack the darkness with magic missile. I also liked the sense of humor, although I didn't particularly enjoy being eaten by a grue. Oh well.
Your mind is always a fun place to visit. Even if I wouldn't want to live there. >.>

Got through it in one shot. Although the replayability isn't that high and it is a bit linear, I love how you wrote it and it made me feel like I was reading some stories that I wrote when I was younger. It was a great read with lots of creativity. Well done.
Made me think of going and playing some zork games again. With death on every wrong choice though, I admit to using the infamous 'Go Back' button now and then :)
It's always good to be able to play something four times and still find it awesome, yes?
It was okay- fairly well-written, but kinda linear.
All that is required to beat the game is to think like its creator. I am wise, and have been eaten by a treasure-grue for my trouble.

I have been eaten by a grue for daring to attack the narrator! Alas and woe.
