What is supposed to happen is that you keep giving horrible games to the clerk, and he eventually collapses from sniggering at your horrible choices. It's sort of retarded video game logic, but I guess at the same time I was hoping to further paint a world where everyone was obsessed with old video games.

It clearly failed in this case! Let me know if a long string of truly bad games (you can get more than one out of the bin at once) doesn't defeat him. But it should.

Don't blame yourself. When you are a man with lots of creative ideas, many of them will be fantastic! Some of them, sure, might sound good on paper, but when the rubber hits the road, you think, "huh, maybe this wasn't the best idea ever", but in general, the good far outweighs the bad!

FAR outweighs!

Well, you are a good friend to say that. I appreciate that greatly. I hope that the next text game experience you have with my slop is WHOLLY PLEASURABLE, since we already figured out what doesn't work.

Judging by Worm's reaction to the opener though, maybe you should wait for the text game after the next one.

Hey ICJ I had no idea you were an IF author! that is awesome. I just dl'd Fallacy and will be immersing myself in your handiwork as soon as I have a few hours to spare. I'll let you know my reaction afterwards.
Which of you is interested in my fine wares?

Thanks! Don't hesitate to let me know if you get stuck on the first two puzzles. They are fairly Infocommy, meaning, they were written without the realization that people have thousands of other games to spend time with. It's a fairly bad introduction to the rest of the game, in Fallacy of Dawn.
