Are you going to make this into a game could be really cool.

I would play Andail's game definitely. Just I'm worried about going to the toilet If your going to live down a hole

So all this thread comes down to is cannabalism?

Andail knows better than over-stepping the PG-13 mark in adventure gaming...

Here's the situation: You were walking home from the electronics store and strangely enough, you stepped on an unknown piece of hollow earth.  The ground gave way beneath you and you toppled several feet to the bottom of an underground cavern chamber.  You fear that your leg is badly injured.

You shout for help until you're hoarse, but there is nobody around.  The hole that you fell through is in a residential area so there is little to no midday traffic, not that anyone in a car could hear you anyway.  An hour passes.  Another hour passes.  Pretty soon, the dry cave air has robbed you of your voice entirely.

You had purchased a new CD-ROM drive for your little brother's computer, but it was smashed open in the impact when you landed.  You also purchased a set of screwdrivers.  You always keep a roll of duct tape and a flashlight (the thin type with two AA batteries) in your backpack because frankly, you're a nerd.  Unfortunately, the flashlight was jarred when you landed and the glass plate and the bulb have both shattered.

Your left pocket contains $3.42, a receipt, and an inkpen.  Your right pocket contains your house key, a pair of nail clippers, and a few still-wrapped toothpicks you grabbed from the register counter when you had a deli lunch.  In your wallet is a business card, your license and a twenty dollar bill.

At last, 5:00 PM arrives and you can hear the sounds of automobiles through the open hole yawning so near and yet impossibly far above you.  You have about an hour before the last of the daily commuters has settled in and left you behind.  It's time to act now or spend the night in a dusty cave with an injured leg and no chance of being found until 8:00 AM.

What do you do?  If you want to ask questions about any of the items you have, I will try to answer efficiently, but please forgive me if I'm unable.  I have a specific solution in mind, but since this is puzzle is in a very organic format, I'm sure there are others that I'd be interested to hear.

Okay, let's see...

There are cars above you,

you are injured,

There are shattered glass and mechanical stuff,

you have a few bucks and dubloons,

nail clippers, inkpen and toothpicks...

WELL ISN'T IT DARN OBVIOUS?!

Solution =

Your leg is injured therefore useless, you use the nail clippers to rip and cleave through your leg. Blood gushes out of course!

You replace the ink in the pen with your blood and draw a pentagram on the ground.

you then place the neccissary elements in the locaton/direction of enmity:

* screw driver (metal begets wood)

* toothpick (wood begets water)

* Spit/ Saliva/ pee... (water begets fire)

* Placing the exposed filament of the broken lightbulb onto your severed (blood drained out dry) leg, you take the batteries and scratching them vigorously on the end of the broken lightbulb creates an electrical charge which cobmbusts the leg creating fire! (fire begets metal and according to feng shuei this is the direction of Enmity...was it the other way?)

Being such a geek, you've remembered the times you tried to 'fit in' into a group, therefore you also remember the satanic rituals you've learnt in your goth days (also long nights playing runescape and other MMOPG's did help)

You put on your 'magician' face and cast the spell.

Suddenly there is an earthquake! This hocus-pocus (who even uses that word anymore?) actually worked!

The earthquake had shaken the cars into the hole (of course the cars are too cramped and got stuck around the middle when they fell in, like c'mon you think a whole lot of cars falling into a hole would reach the bottom? that would be illogical!)

The people in the cars, to your surprize, happen to be pornstars! they try to get out, but end up falling deeper into the hole.

(You haver new characters now yay! Too bad they're NPC's)

Now being a geek of all sorts you rely on the combination of biology + physics! To reach the top, we must fill the hole and create pressure to burst through the cars (this is physics) and to fill the hole we must mate! (this is Biology)

And so, since no one had anything else better to do you all have a wild underground orgy and in 9 months the hole was filled with, a few amputated, bodies (how the hell do you think you can survive? you need food y'know)

As the hole was filled with bodies, and it's really cramped in there, the myth about skin on skin combustion was lifted and proven fact! Suddenly everyone was burning.

Having eaten a lot of...meat, your stomache doesn't feel too good, you release gas and it combusts! you go bursting out of the hole like a shooting star and land on your backyard.

Finally you are reunited with your family (yay)

For comming home so late, you are grounded...
