Moving unneeded info to talk page (see AfD in progress)[edit]

Moving unneeded info to talk page (see AfD in progress). Jodi.a.schneider (talk) 14:34, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Other works are more fun: the Mulldoon sequence (two games) is puzzle-based. The first game, The Mulldoon Legacy (1999), is reputedly the longest text-game ever written; the follow-up, The Mulldoon Murders (2002) is much shorter and darker in tone. Till Death Makes a Monk-Fish out of Me (2002, 2nd place in the Interactive Fiction Competition, and nominated for four XYZZY Awards) is a black comic science fiction story.
