You need instal Tads (TADS - the Text Adventure Development System)to open this game.

If you look at page one of this thread TADS is mentioned as the game environment -- Text Adventure Development System. Google it.

Rats! Beaten to it by a pilot fish!! The force is strong in you, young wariotpl!

where can i find the statue?

where can i find the statue?

If you could walk through walls, I want to say it's about 4 rooms east of start and down steps. Been awhile since I played so don't recall exactly, but seems there was a large creature that needed killing, and then you need to notice that there are stairs in that room.

It's three rooms east of the altar room and then down. My walkthrough (http://aifsansmystery.blogspot.com/2012/12/walkthrough-tesliss-equation.html) has a map if you need more detail.

The game is much less linear than Goblinboy's previous games, which I'm guessing is why he started his walkthrough with possible objectives instead of just a command by command version.

A really big hint here is that many if not most text based games have a feature wherein if you type "undo" your last action will be erased and you can try again. If that still doesn't help (and really it should) here's the first few commands of the game.

After you put in your name and go through the comic, type these:
z
volunteer
a
volunteer
a

At this point she will ask you to solve the Tesliss Equation. Seeing as how this is the name of the game and the main story, you obviously can't solve it here. Wouldn't be much of a game if you could.

From here just remember to make a new save after every significant event in the game and don't forget about undo. I'm probably biased here because I already beat the game every which way, but ExLibris' guide is actually quite good for this game (as always). If you finished the "Gift of Phallius" series of games you should be alright with or without his help, as most of the commands are the same. If you get stuck somewhere or don't like how the story turned out just keep going back through your old saves and try new things till you get what you want.

I havent been following. Is this the latest goblinboys game?

Yes, it's his most recent game. Possibly his last as well, since he hasn't made an appearance on aifarchive in nearly six months.

I hope not. No more GoblinBoy games would be a big loss IMO.

Personally, I just hope it doesn't mean that something unfortunate has happened to him.

The last message from Goblinboy in aifarchive (I delete it for weeks/months so I dont remember what he write exact) was that he is working on a new Game. When I remember correct all time when he is working on a new Game he is not in the Forum and answer Question (I think he is reading only [all news I get as EMAIL so I can read only and go only on the site when a new Game/Game update is there]).

I think 6 months and maybe more he need to produce a new Game.

Help! I can't leave the classroom in the very 1st part of the game (class has ended & i supposed to meet emily), i've tried "exit classroom", "leave classroom" walk out of classroom" and am getting replies such as "I don't understand that sentence" or "I don't know the word "walk".
Can anyone please tell me what command they used to leave the fricking classroom?
Many thanls
