HyperTreading is a text adventure, written in inform7.

It’s playable on the web.

There is no graphics or audio in this game, so I opted out of those categories.

I have included a solution (only the commands I typed to get to the end) and a transcript (The commands and the output of the game). This solution is reasonably complete and looks at all the essential things, but do explore on your own!

If you have never played a game like this before, you basically type what you want to do and the game responds. What you need for this particular game:

• Looking at things, e.g. “look at rope” or “examine rope”, or the usual short form “x rope”.
• Look at everything, including yourself! “look at self” or “look at me”. (Sorry, “yourself” does not work. I noticed this five minutes before the deadline, use “me” or “self”)
• Picking things up. “take rope” or “get rope”
• Putting things down in specidic places. “put rope on table“
• Using things. You can type “use rope” or “use rope“
• Step on things. “step on thing“
• Put things on. “put on sock“ or “wear sock“
• Take things off. “take off sock“ or “remove sock“
• Turn things. “turn table“
• Open things. “open box“

Many other verbs work too. (there are no ropes, socks or tables in this game)

Look at everything, including yourself!

Have a look at the solution or the transcript to make things clear if needed.
