"Mayan Temple Escape" by This was a School Assignment [ENTRANCE(room#1)] Entrance is a room. "Welcome! You were sent out to an island in Guatemala with an exploration team in search of an artifact. After passing aimlessly through the thick brambles of green, your group splits into pairs. Paired with your best friend, Gio, you end up finding a Mayan Temple. Without anyone responding to your calls, both of you decide to investigate but upon entering the first room both of you are locked inside and must find a way to escape. You can talk to Gio anytime. TIP-Have fun examining things, talking to Gio (he has a few different replies) etc. and take what you can! The Entrance room is bland aside from the detailed murals carved on the walls and a few stray cobwebs hanging off the chipped stone. You notice there are overhead labels on three doorways. To your north is the huge stone entrance door that closed behind you and Gio. The Storage Room is to your west. A library is to your east. What looks to be a hallway is to your south." Walls is here. "On closer inspection, the murals seem to be severely worn out. This temple must be really old. However, you can still make out a few figures of rigidly drawn faces and geometric patterns. They don't look to be much help in getting out of here." Walls is scenery. Understand "wall" and "mural" and "murals" and "the walls" and "the wall" as Walls.

Before eating cobwebs: Instead say "You can not reach them. Even if you could it would probably taste... Icky." Entrance door is here. "It's just a huge rock.

Gio is here. "Gio is with you in this room. Though, he's agreed that he will follow you around as you explore." The description of Gio is "He has golden blonde hair, his mullet is tied behind in a ponytail. This is probably because the harsh conditions in the jungle would tangle it.

Talking to is an action applying to one visible thing. Understand "talk to [someone]" or "converse with [someone]" as talking to. Instead of talking to Gio, say "[one of] Gio's voice is jittery. 'This place is really scary. Let's look around so we can get out of here.'[line break] [or] He's starting to shiver. 'It's pretty chilly here. Is there anywhere we can go to get my legs warmed up? Wonder where the rest of our group is...' [paragraph break] You nod in agreement.[or] 'You're doing great! Let's get out of here together. First, look around.' [line break] You think Gio is stating the obvious but appreciate his advice nonetheless.[at random]" [STORAGE ROOM(room#2)] Storage room is west of the Entrance. "You and Gio walk into the room, eyes on the lookout for anything. Luckily, the various cracks through the roof reveal several vases in rows starting from either side of the doorway. The hall of vases ends around halfway through the room where there is a rotting skeleton sitting in the corner. There is a dusty journal beside the skeleton. Directions: The Entrance is now to your east!" Every turn: if the player is in a room (called the current space): move Gio to the current space. Vases is in Storage room. Understand "vase" as vases.

Perhaps you can take it?"] The interior is a part of the broken vase. The red key is inside the interior. Understand "inside" as interior. The red key unlocks the old wooden door. The description of the red key is "A worn down key that appears to be made of gold. There is a red jewel embedded in the middle. You wonder if you can use this." [ "You put the vase back.

Understand "shard" and "vase shards" and "broken shards" as shards. The skeleton is in Storage room. The skeleton is scenery. "'AHHH-' Gio's reaction is justified.

Understand "corpse" and "dead body" and "skelly" as the skeleton. Before eating skeleton, say "Do you have any idea how hard bone marrow is? Your dignity won't allow you to nibble on the boney finger you picked up. It's covered in dust and you decide to put it back down." The journal is in the storage room. The journal is a thing. The journal is scenery. The description of the journal is "There are panicked scribbles of handwriting. Quite a few pages are written in and one in particular is bookmarked: [line break] 'It's been four whole days... My water has run out and I still can't seem to find what I'm looking for! I've examined everywhere except the vases in this room! They are much too tall and I wouldn't dare to break such relics anyway. Though, sitting in this room with strange vases is sickening and I accidentally kicked one. Whatever, I'll just hope I can get out of here.'" Before taking journal, say "A centipede crawls over one of the pages. Gross. You decide against it." Instead of showing the red key to Gio, say "Gio looks at it, studying the bright red gem. 'Hmm.. Interesting! Think we could use that in one of the rooms here.' [line break] Welp." [ABANDONED LBRARY(room#3)] Abandoned Library is east of the Entrance. "You step in first, Gio being far more cautious than you but follows inside anyway. There is rickety bookcases on either side, withered books poking themselves out of their confined spaces at strange intervals and the entire place looking as though hardly anything or anyone has touched it. There is only a few stray tables with a few stacked books. However, what's out of place is the huge area cleared around the middle revealing a dust-ridden chest.

In the Southwest side, it has a panel saying Secret." The riddle is in the Unknown Pathway. The riddle is scenery. “Woooaaahhhh, there are such fascinating carving prints on the walls. Ohh, That might be the reason why it’s called the Unknown Pathway, it’s so unique and amazing!

I have found a blue key hole from the other room. Maybe this key may unlock this door and lead me outside. I should take the artifact and leave." After taking the cat artifact: say “Congratulations!
