TFN - Text Adventure Game
When these classic style adventure games were at their peak, the player was responsible for making notes as they played so as to not get lost. With this game, a simulated hand-drawn map is available of all previously explored areas. Commands at one time had to be typed as well! That is no longer necessary as all commands can be entered using the provided buttons. Of course, for those who miss that nostalgic ‘Text Adventure Game’ experience, feel free to type the commands if you want. A joystick is also included to allow for quick navigation and also gives the ability to quickly ‘look around’. And if you get stuck, hints are readily available to help you get on your way again.
This Christian themed story begins with an accident. An accident that leaves you, as the player, unable to recall not only where you are, but who you are as well. Awakening in an overturned van, being suspended by your seatbelt, you must first figure a way of escape. Once free to explore the area, you find yourself in a world that not only seems strangely empty, but openly hostile as well. As the story unfolds and your memory begins to return, you begin to question whether these strange happenings are limited to the immediate area. If your experience of this small town is reflective of the state of the world, then things are certainly not as they used to be!
A word of warning! This seemingly dark tale is refreshed by a large number of humorous responses that if caught unaware, may have you bursting out in spontaneous laughter. This may cause embarrassment if played in a public place. In fact, no matter how many hours are spent playing this game, it would be nearly impossible to discover every comical response.
But really, could a game of this caliber truly have the power engage a player? A game without the advanced audio and video quality we’ve come to expect from modern entertainment? There is only one way to find out. Give it a try and discover why this hidden gem has quickly become loved by many who have decided to do so themselves. Some have even dared to say that it is the best game they have ever played. You may be surprised at how quickly and easily the story draws you in!

First line of the description should be the preachy truth about this game: it's Christian propaganda. If you dig through the description, FAQs, or in game supplemental information it's made clear, but nothing is above the fold. That aside, the gameplay is clunky and unsatisfying. There are numerous spelling and grammar errors dotted throughout the game text. Commands are often overly complicated, like having to restart vehicle ignition every use. Features might be useful, if more obvious.
I played this game in my windows phone some years ago. Glad I found it in android appstore. However, I prefer the interface in my old phone. Other than that, I have no complaint. The story is enjoyable even for an irreligious person like me. I hope to see more story from this dev. Keep it up.
Love this game so much, thanks for making it! I recommend it to anyone, its an inhanced and truly inspired text adventure with a great message and great setting. You will be sad when its over, but don't worry, the sequel is wonderful too!
great text adventure game. really like the map feature. only thing I wish it had was a fast travel option
Never knew that a text adventure out of all things could give me the chills. Pretty decent text adventure game.
Lots of narrative and not-quite-puzzles. Very good. Highly recommended
Gets your mind thinking and is a nice way to spend time playing a game thats different from all the other apps out there.
If you dont like religion this game is not for you. I liked the game until it became all about Christianity, and being forgiven, blah blah blah. Such a waste of time and load of trash.
Love this game. Has an D&D game feel with the 80's text games. 5👍👍👍👍👍 up.
I like this waaaay better than the games where it's all through a messaging app
I am enjoyed this game very much. It has an important message at the end.
This game was the best text adventure game I ever played
I used to play this game years ago, so much fun for anyone, even if you aren't Christian!
Could you remove the vibration in all of your games..
Thank you for this game...I wish there were more like it.
I absolutely love this game.
Reminds me of Miser, love it
I am loving the story; it really has me intrigued. The gameplay is very nice. I do play with a Bluetooth keyboard though, so it would be nice if the cursor would stay in the text box after executing a command. It also would have been nice to know that I would still need the gas can. I dropped it somewhere because I didn't have enough space and I had to restart because I couldn't find it haha
This game is A very simple idea. But it is amazingly fun. I love games that make you use your brain. I enjoyed the storyline. The controls take a little getting used to, but once you get them down. This is way more fun than graphic intensive games. If you have an imagination you will love this game. I will be downloading number 2 also. Please make more games like this. Thank you.
But it's kind of clunky and ugly. I played so many text-based adventures when I was young that I guess I was spoilt. It doesn't understand 'get' but tells me to use 'take'... A few more synonyms would go a long way towards making this a game worth playing
I like that it doesn't bash me with ads and let's you play at your own pace.hints could be better keept getting stuck and had to go online for help. The map does miss up a few times but not enough to make me stop playing. I saw there's a sequel and i already downloaded it but I'd like to play more.
I like the earily feel to the game and it was well done, but being a carefree and loving Christian myself, I prefer to focus on the positives with religion. For games I prefer them to be more secular. Honestly I was just a little creeped out, but good job with the game.
The game is fun, especially since if you get stuck you can get hints or go to the walk-through. But WARNING: this game has a traditional Christian ulterior motive. It is effectively an extended sermon on the danger of sin, the coming of the end of days and a plea to confess your sins and turn to Jesus. Even being a Christian myself I do not agree with a forced message of such a somber nature. I do not think this is the way to have people turn to Christ. That being said, only the final part of the game is so preachy, boring and aimed at making you feel worthless and bad about yourself. So basically just skip through the last 3 or 4 tasks if you aren't interested in the religious stuff. Also I would like to comment to the developers that someone (even a Christian) suffering from depression or feelings of worthlessness could be dangerously negatively affected by this game. How about a hopeful final word - stressing the GOOD if you DO turn to God, instead of the bad if you do not? Also I agree with a previous comment that the game should be proof read since grammar and typing mistakes occur.
I actually enjoyed this game! It was easy to play, had a map and Walkthrough fot when I got stuck and had clear instructions. The reason why it didn't get 5 stars is because I was a little thrown by the religious aspect at the end (it didn't bother me I just didn't see it coming so was a bit thrown) and it didn't feel like a story, just instructions. If there was a little more description on places and items it would have been better.
I so enjoyed playing this game, but I can not get the flashlight. The story mentions it, but it's not in the list of available objects. Even when I went back with the batteries, it says the flashlight is one of the things I can see, but still it's not on the list in the second tab. I even restarted and tried again to the same result. Please fix this glitch, I'd love to be able to finish it.
It would be nice without it being like Left Behind. I am Christian, but a game like this shouldn't be preaching, it should be fun for all. People will play with diffrent beliefs, (like me,) and when diffrent beliefs come into play so do emotions. Best to warn people first.
I do not like that I constantly have to switch back and forth between the command screen and the text screen. When I make an action and switch back, I have to then scroll down just to find the result of that action instead of the page automatically doing that for me. That's aggravating. Having played other tbgs on android this one is just too clunky. I'm a fan of the Zork series and I was excited for this game. I'll keep playing and will update if it gets better.
The interface and flow of the game is great, but... the rapture theme was too much for me. I know it said christian themed but I didn't think it was going to be that far out there. Would love to see more games, preferably without the whole rapture thing. It's totally fine that you made it to be christian based, obviously, but it would be cool to see some games that could be enjoyed by other people.
