City of Blood
Fantasy You play an adventurer who is visiting his old mentor in Port Silvermoon. Suddenly in mid-conversation your friend has been murdered! It's your mission to investigate why and to seek vengeance.
The game is fixed now thanks to Alex. I placed a 'don't process command' in the 'after each turn' script that Quest 5 didn't like.

Settler of the Wastes
RPG This is a relatively short demo. Would enjoy some feedback on structure, direction, and story line. Thanks! (I know the depth is..well shallow as of yet but it's a rough draft of a work in progress and my first attempt, judge accordingly)

All the news that's fit to print (WIP)
Simulation 'All the news that's fit to print' is a work-in-progress build of a newspaper reporter simulation game. The goal inside the game is to sift through information to present objective journalistic truth, but the game's mechanics run contrary to claims objective truth. The player is working with limited time, limited article length, there are financial conflicts of interest with the newspaper's advertisers, and the fallible player is responsible for all the choices.
Ideally, at the end of the game, you get a complete news article that you can compare with friends. I haven't been able to implement that mechanic yet. I can turn conversations into tokens, but I can't turn the tokens into an article. If anyone has a suggestion, let me know.
Beowulf
Historical This is the part of the story Beowulf where Beowulf encounters Grendel.
Zombies Attack (avg 4.5, based on 2 reviews)
Horror My first attempt at a completed Quest game, Zombies attack is a horror(ish) game where you have to escape you're apartment. There's combat, situations of chance and puzzles involved. In many scenario's you're faced with a situation that is influenced on you're health.
It was intended to have sound effects, but I took the mout for offline. It's my first game, and has 47 rooms if that's any indicator of length.
