You have entered a dark and musty room. There is a strong odor coming from a chest of drawers. Across the room is an antique desk where a somewhat outdated PC is mysteriously turned on showing a list of Top-12 Text Based Games behind a dimply lit, dusty monitor.
What do you want to do?

I do not understand that. try again.
Before you insult a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you insult him, you'll be a mile away, and have his shoes.

Emerald Isle? Good to see L9 represented.....
But, I'd plump for Snowball, Return and Worm (Silicon Dreams trilogy)

Probably my favorite company was Level 9 and my favorite game was Return to Eden on the C64.
Also - shouldn't the "Denis..." title be "Denis Through the DRINKING Glass" not "Looking Glass"?? Or are there 2 games with similar titles?

You have entered a dark and musty room. There is a strong odor coming from a chest of drawers. You open one drawer and there it is... STETSON! :-)
