At PAX we debuted the “How to Play Interactive Fiction” postcard. If
somebody is sitting down in front of an IF game for the very first

likely to work — and what commands are *likely* to work. It’s not
trying to teach everything an IF expert would know; it’s just
conveying the pattern.–Andrew Plotkin, rec.arts.int-fiction
