I just want to make sure you are playing the latest version of the game. (You probably are.) It is here:
http://www.ifarchive.org/if-archive/gam ... courge.zip
That version is probably still rather buggy. :( It's the first game I ever made in Hugo.
Over the last 10 years I've fiddled with updating it. I just looked at the "in-progress" version I have, and Christ, I don't list the characters in the room description for the first room. What an awful mistake.
I think I list the characters in the bar. The villains hanging out there are Snowman, Pounder, the Green Knight, the AIDS Archer and the Iron Lung.
I believe all of them have something to say about the murder.
I know one reviewer said, years ago, that after you talk to everyone, you can't just leave the bar. You HAVE to start a fight. I don't know if I fixed that for the version you have now or not.
I do know that the easiest way to win the fight is to pull the plug out from the Iron Lung. His powers are dependent on electricity. I liked that bit.
Paul, you have encouraged me to finish the updates I had for this game after many years and try to make it an OK game to play after nearly a decade.
Thank you, my friend.
