Dear God those text parser adventures. I remember playing Hugo's House of Horrors and trying for the longest time to remove some screws from a grate.

Okay screws np.

UNSCREW SCREWS

I don't know how to do that.

REMOVE SCREWS

I don't know how to do that.

Reeeee... Turns out it only responded specifically to UNDO SCREWS

It is like a game designed by a bitter English teacher.
