The Awakening is a Z-machine interactive fiction game written with Inform 7 and is © 2010 by PKProStudio.
In this short "prologue to the Saturn Chronicles", you play as a luckless working guy having an unusually bad Monday. First, your car was stolen, then you.
This solution is by David Welbourn, and is based on Release 1 of the game.
Front Yard
> x me. i. (Carrying nothing.)
> x house. x lawn. x driveway. x garage.
> n.
Bright lights. You black out and wake in a strange room.
Strange Room / Sector 108-8, Room 481,800
> x bed. x door. x monitor —or— x button.
> turn on monitor. read it. (The room gets a new name.)
There's a "lockdown" in this sector. You need to get to the Control Room to override it. And your door is now open.
> s.
Sector 108-8 Corridor
> x doors.
> w.
In Front of the Control Room
> x airlock. x door. n.
Sector 108-8 Control Room
> x panel. (oo, a huge text dump!)
The panel is complex, showing many rooms of unconscious people wearing devices on their heads. Then a black-skinned nonhuman entity enters, taps you on the head with something and you pass out.
*** To be continued in Chapter One of the Saturn Chronicles ***
There is no inventory, alternate endings, or score in this prologue story.
