Your car has broken down on the highway, at least 100 miles from the nearest town. There is a payphone next to you, and there appears to be a wooden shack by the roadside in the distance.
You are currently carrying: your wallet, a mobile phone (with no signal available), chewing gum, car key.
What do you do?
I kick the car and vent my frustration

Your knee hurts considerably and there is no effect on the car. You immediately regret your action.
Call the motoring organisation with a coin from your wallet and chew the gum while waiting for them to arrive. You might also walk to the shed, find hens and eggs there and make you some nice fried eggs on your vehicle grill.

"Hello, is that the motoring organisation?"
"Speak up, I can't hear you."
"Oh sorry, I'm chewing gum. My car broke, can you help?"
"Sure, we'll send someone over. Can you tell us your loca-*BZZZZZT* I'm sorry, the area you are trying to reach is restricted. You need higher clearance. *DIAL TONE*"
"...Hello?"
You don't know what's in the shack yet. Looks like a fair walk away.

Go to that wooden shack by the roadside in the distance where you'll find a horse and a horse-carriage which has one wheel is broken that you're able to fix with your chewing gum.

Well, this is unfortunate.
There are some papers in the shack. Oh, and a headless body.
There appears to be no food.

Read the papers, rummage through the corpses jacket, anything to delay doing anything sensible like running back to the payphone.

On closer inspection, you find a trapdoor! How exciting!
(http://pucomic.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/adventure18.jpg)
There is another trapdoor under the first trapdoor, rendering the first one pointless. This one is locked, but has a keypad.
Breath heavily on the keypad and then put some dust on top. Then blow the dust off and see in which keys the dust has remained most. Then depending on the number of keys, try all the possible combinations (yes, I've been watching McGyver lately! ;D)
Have a look inside the car. Especially check the trunk for a death body or some guns etc.
EDIT:
Whoops posted before me :-[
... and don't forget to close shack-door (to be safe from a surprise visit)
also to look, if there is a hint at the insede-door. ;D
Pick up Dr. Jones' hand. You never know when a hand of a Level 9 Technician would be useful!

If you are still hungry, munch on Dr. Jones toe.

Turns out he was just lying on the bone, and that is no way indicative of my anatomy knowledge.
Loud noises continue outside.
(More coming tomorrow...)
Take the bone with you and look out the window (checking the shades for hidden objects, of course).
(Awesome Job by the way. This is fun!)
Jam the door with the bone.
Stick body up against window as a decoy and as a last minute shield.
Dont forget anything you took.
Go down the latter and close floorboard behind you.
-Take the Dead Body's sweater off and wrap it around the bone. It could be used as a torch o O (if only you could get back to the car for some petrol...)

Everything I said in my previous post and...
Turn on phone so it works as a flashlight.
But... bone torches are way more rock and roll \m/
Drop the bone into the shaft. Count the seconds until impact to gauge distance.
Feel remorse at losing your wicked-sweet bone-torch
*Presses Pause/Break in order to say:*

Dammit. When you got the ID card, you should've just gone back to the payphone, phoned the car company and given Mr. Jones' ID number. Then you probably would've had sufficient clearance to get some answers!

What are these...eggs?
Take your shirt off, and grab the Lionel Richie CD (if you don't have it, crawl back and get it). Cover your hands with the shirt and use the CD to crash the eggs (just in case there's acid or something in there). If by any chance the CD is NOT destroyed in the process scratch it further to make sure nobody will be able to play it! ;D
Then carry on down the vent...
Vomit, as a precaution against sandwich poisoning.

You might also walk to the shed, find hens and eggs there and make you some nice fried eggs on your vehicle grill.
Ha, I knew there would be eggs!
Examine the eggs and if they are not from this world go back and try to use the CD to break open the lockers.

No effect.
First we have to examine the room/corridor and see if the other half of the man is there. Firstaiding only half of the man is rather pointless. Use the gum to stick both parts together and then use first aid on him.

There is no match. A betting man might wager that the ID card belonged to the body on which it was found, but gambling is dangerous, kids.
Loose the hands to ditch the body, it's disgusting.
Nay, I'd say use the body to lower yourself down to the room and check out the computer.
I thought about that, but I think it'd be easier to just jump on the corpse.

send mail to call for help
take stapler, pens and handgun (examine it)
examine (half)corpse
hearken at the door
if door is locked (and you didn't find the key at the corps, because it might be in his trousers), use drawer to reach the vent
Use handgun to draw a smiley face in your vomit (I think it's mostly down there, maybe covered a bit by the corpse...)
Also, take and examine the "stop taking my sandwiches" note.
Suddenly recall your vast knowledge of zombie film, comic, and videogame trivia, then strike the manliest Frank Frazetta pose possible and say "When there's no more room in hell...I'm the guy with the gun!"

Dang it, Dave beat me. For posterity's sake (and in case nothing comes of the waiting):
Pull the gun to the ready. Make sure the safety is off and that the thing is loaded! Break down the door and swing the gun around at random while shouting, "NYPD! FREEZE!" If anyone (or anything) gives you a questioning glare, flash the stolen ID badge.

Set the alarm on the mobile phone to 1 minute from now, stuff the mobile phone inside the second dismembered hand (presumably the fresher, more squishy one) and throw it across the room. Might as well stick the gum in there too - hopefully this 'thing' will choke and die on it.
While the thing is busy munching on the musical hand, leg it!!
Throw the gun* through the room for confusion purposes, then stand up and
a) if the door isn't blocked, go through it.
b) else: if the duct/shaft is low enough, climb up to the other side from where you came from
c) else: if it would suffice slam the computer monitor on the ground, stand on it and try again
d) else: throw the monitor at the monster
* Edit: or better what straydogstrut suggested
and if the monster happens to be a funny guy in a monster constume, start up a nice conversation!
Pull the Mouse out of the back of the computer and slide it across the floor. Maybe monsters are scared of mice ;D
Have a nice wank to relieve all this stress.

Subject: Fire. Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to inform you of a fire that has broken out on the premises of 123 Cavendon RoadFire! Fire! Help me!
123 Cavendon Road.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours truly, Maurice Moss.
Use the pen hats (or are they called caps?) as bullets
or stab lizard in foot with pen and craw out the door and close it behind you.
Don’t lose the phone you might need it later!
EDIT:
Cap it is then ;)
Got a new one… try staple the foot to the floor. :)
And MonkE3y you of course right about the fighting each other but when a monster moves towards you there is always gonna be a lot of panic.
Ooh, ooh, I know. You have to trip the guy next to you so you can run away. That's a friggin' velociraptor man!
Oh wait. There's no one next to you. In that case, if stabbing or shooting it with the pen failed for any reason, crawl underneath the far side of the desk. Use corpse with velociraptor. Run like hell.
@BlueAngel: I can't speak for certain about other Engrish-speaking countries, but in Amerikaa it is indeed a "pen cap". :)
Edit: I just realized that there seems to be a lot of contradictory commands being given about how to deal with the velociraptor, so I concede to everyone who posted before me where necessary. :-\ I think we may need to see what comes of the current commands before we can usefully supply anything further. As it is we're just fighting each other at this point, and let me tell you, as a man with some experience in the matter, when there's a velociraptor standing 5 feet away from you, that is not the time for arguing. :=
I call it a 'pen lid'... Can't speak for my fellow Englishmen, though.

Go to the room at the end of the corridor. It's always the most important.
We still have the torch, just need to find a way to light it.
Use night vision goggles to search for a lighter. If you found the goggles that is. :=
Also, have we ever looked into the wallet? I know we have one..but I don't recall having actually looked in it (to examine its full contents).
Check wallet for a piece of flint and something metal to strike against it. 8)

It's a bit colder in here, but you can slightly see. Sort of. There's sparks coming from a socket and something hanging from the ceiling.
Hold the bone torch to the sparks and hope it lights.
Then examine what is hanging from the ceiling.
If what's hanging from the ceiling is the remains of some formerly living creature, take a big bite. It's been a while since you've eaten (Edit: *a full meal*) and you don't want to go starving to death.
Also, you apparently lost you left shoe, so assuming that the torch lights up from the sparks, look for something to put on your leg (maybe the corpse has a shoe?).

Eek. Who's that? Should you hide or confront?
Definitely confront. They can tell you what's going on here!
Show yourself, smile, and say "Ah good, you're the person I was looking for! Who are you? In any case, lets be best friends! And lets get the hell outta here! Also, give me anything because I need your inventory in case you get eaten on our way out."
Hollow out the piece of meat and hide inside.

Is that a gun he's pointing at you, or his business card?
If it's a gun, push one of the lumps of meat at him to knock it out of his hands and then pick it up, point it at him and ask HIM the questions.
Tell him your with the health department and your shutting down the place for failed inspection, your gonna need his name and ID.
Tell him the truth, honesty is the best policy. Explain that you may not be able to trust each other but for the moment he needs you just as much as you need him.

...passionately. But not too long, there's a chance you're still a bit in danger there.
Read/examine the clipboard looking item that is on the floor.
Look in the vent for more cool eggs, or whatever/whoever else may be in there. Or even for a possible exit.
Inspect the sparking electrical unit, it may be the reason for the power going out - see if you can fix it / turn it off.
If the vent proves to be a possible exit: if the door locks, lock it. Otherwise block the door with a hunk of meat. And exit through the vent after confronting the man and taking anything he's willing to give you. Including his dirty underwear if he's willing to part with it.

Lead him to the room you were in before but make sure he enters first?

Before feeding him to the velociraptor though, tell him, in your best mobster voice, "Sorry, the boss don't see nobody unless they give me their weapons foyst. Hand 'em over." 8)

No, no â€" that's an earned reaction, when you faced to a pistol ;D
Yeah I agree with taking him to the room with the creature and leading him in first. But, I know very well that he won't enter first.. so perhaps you can trick him into unloading his clip into the beast so that you're both equipped with an empty hand gun. Or he simply just dies. :)
The door to that room must open toward the inside of the room, otherwise the creature wouldn't have been clever enough to open the door the opposite way (especially if it's dumb enough to chase beeping hands). So open the door for this man, knock out your torch so it's dark, and dart down the hallway to a random room (hopefully back to this room). He won't see you running down the dark hallway because he's facing an evil creature and won't really care about you anymore.

There are rows of this meat. Without power, they are starting to smell. The room goes back pretty far.
Excellent!
Examine/read the clipboard.
examine the whole room
Including that sparking electrical panel. If there is a chance that's what caused the power outage, we'll want that to be our priority.
Eat as much of the meat as you can stomach. Then shove one of the large pieces into your pants..er..I mean inventory.
Take one of the meats down and pocket the meathook... You just know you're gonna need a hook at some point.
I feel guilty now :P
Not sure if eating all that meat is good, we still dont know what kind it is.
Did we examined the wallet to check its all empty?
I am enjoying this thread too much. A huge thank you goes to veryweirdguy and everyone else who is contributing.
Keep it up everyone. Amuse me further!
Also, would it be better if this was moved to the Competitions & Activities forum? Just a small thought.

If it's still intact, then it's great for holding water, at least.
Don't know what to say. I would really have liked to ask the guy we just killed what was going on and what this place was :S Anyway, there's a tiny note on the floor, right? You might want to pick that up. My guess is all the meat is Fütter for the dinos, so it might be a good idea to roll one around with you, if too heavy to carry.

Looks like someone short-circuited the socket with a paperclip, guess that caused the outage. Designing an entire complex with one circuit seems dumb, but then again, so does letting a velociraptor roam the halls freely. You pocket the straightened paperclip.

Hmm.
In all action/horror film people run upwards so I think we should too. :)
And farm don’t sound good, bet there is more dinos there.
Can we fly a helicopter? I don't think so.
Can we drive a tractor? More likely.
Could this be a dinosaur farm with more raptors? Maybe.
Hard decision.
Also, I'd suggest Mr. Commando dude man came from the helipad, and he may still have buddies waiting up there.
I say we take our chances with the dinos.
Can't we have a Helicopter pilot program installed into our head? Just like in the Matrix.
I'm all for the helipad. We have not much inventory to fight a horde of dinosaurs (and we seem to agree that the probability for dinosaurs is higher at a location called farm than at a location called helipad), but we have at least our wit to get done with a bunch of maybe-bad guys in a helicopter. We can always pretend that we have some information they need so they don't shoot us, and they might even be friendly with us if we explain everything (except that we fed that one guy to a beast, better declare that as an unfortunate accident), or maybe they take us as a prisoner, still better than getting eaten by a dino.
Can´t we just look up the stairs and see if we can see something? We do not have to rush up there.
"Examine stairs"
I've got it: Split up! :=
I'm a bit dubious about going up to the helipad at this juncture... that smacks of Boss Battle, and I'm not sure we're ready for that yet.
I vote farm. Might be able to get our hands on some fertilizer to make a bomb.
To me helipad sounds like something we should check out. It's probably a small place that we can use for escaping later, while at the farm, the story will just go on, and we'll soon forget about this place, just like with all the doors int he hallway. So I vote for helipad
Heliport seems to be our exit at least, but it is never the usual and simple way in such games ;D and if it is a farm, it must be the eggs (harmless, but with computers/informations around) or the raptors themself (like in Jurassic Park running around free), but on the way to the more dangerous' parts of the farm there might be some useful items for us to find (normally meant for the staff to stay save) which we may need at the heliport.
So therefor I would prefer to examine the farm first (but carefully! ;)).
Edit:
(http://smilies-smilies.de/smilies/beleidigte_smilies/beleidigt9.gif) - one single letter wrong makes the whole sentence stupid - so I had to correct it :P
I vote on checking out the helipad.
I was actually all for the helipad, but I've just remembered something. When we first entered the cottage there was a huge eye glaring in the window. Probably the T-Rex. Being up on the helipad would probably make us more susceptible to being eaten by the T-Rex. That sounds not good.
Then again, the "farm" is absolutely the breeding ground for the wild velociraptors, so going there is no good.
So what we all need to keep in mind is that we must never go up against a Sicilian when death is on the line!
Alright, so where are we most likely to find Sicilians? Helipad or Farm?
You guys are getting ahead of yourselves.
Before you do anything you have to have the obligatory scene where the protagonist falls to his knees and cries to the heavens "Burger King is DINOSAAAAUUUURS!!!"

You are right, I had already forgotten about the other door. So there is a third option: going back and see what is behind that door.
Also if the dinosaur is left in the first room shouldn’t we find something to block that door to prevent it from escaping and attacking us from behind?

Looks like that creature is guarding that walkie talkie.
(http://pucomic.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/adventure113.jpg)
And it's a long way down...
Pick an inventory item at random and toss it at the creature. If it reacts, rush forward to grab the walkie talkie, blind in your belief that the reaction is indeed a frigtened flight and not a mere flinch. Immediately after grabbing walkie talkie, turn back, run down the stairs.
EDIT: Oh! And when rushing towards the walkie talkie, flap arms and scream at the top of your lungs to appear large, loud and frightening!
Not a random inventory. Don't we have a chunk of meat left? Try to lure it away with meat, then take the walkie talkie.
Or a dismembered hand
but I have a bad feeling about this, shouldnt we check the farm first, maybe there is something there that can help us here?
EDIT: Also can we see something down there, the car or where that guy came from? And what is that by the door? A Phone?
Connect your pony tail to the magic frond growing out of the pterodactyl's head so that you can control him and fly around wherever you would like.
Realize that your skin isn't blue and you can't talk to trees.
Run like hell (making sure not to drop the walkie from your pantsventory).

Throwing the meat between you and the walkie talkie was not what I exactly meant by "lure it away"... :(

The user interface of this game is a bit limited and the parser requires you to be quite specific on what you want to do.
On that note I say:
> RETRIEVE ARMS FROM THE FARM
Slap 'big bird' with the dismembered hand...
Perform a backflip kick to the dinobird's face and then escape.
By the way, I'm calling dibs on Stranded 2 (as long as veryweirdguy doesnt mind me being a copycat, that is). I've always wanted to do something like this, so when Stranded comes to a close some day, I would like to do a little "make your own story" -thingamabob myself.
Summon OceanSpirt Dennis and have him kill it.
Feed it your pants!
Sing it a lullaby with your amazing opera-voice to get it asleep :D
Take out your enormous cock and use it to slap the dinobird in the face untill it falls over in shock!

Quote from: Peder Johnsen+ on Fri 29/07/2011 21:20:53

So we DO have to go to the farm first... I stand corrected.
What we need right now is another dino for it to fight it out with...
Dangle the hand in front of it and then throw the hand over the side.
“Go fetch!†:)
Then take the walkie talkie before it flies back.
Hasn't anyone here played The Secret of Monkey Islandâ,,¢??
You have to step on the wooden plank beneath the bird-like creature, and then you can grab the..erm..fish-y smelling walkie. :=
Also, icey, you do realize that you're constantly referring to Oceanspirit by his surname, yes?

You've made an extinct creature more extinct, somehow. Also you have a walkie talkie.

"Emergency evacuation in progress. Backup power currently in operation. The next evacuation transportation will be available in *BEEP* one hundred and nine *BEEP* hours. Have a nice day."
;D
BEST Thread ever!
Let's have a little chat with the phone-pastoral (they are used to talk to characters with silly ideas) ;D
... then use the walkie talkie to call for someone else who might still be in the building or in reachable distance.
GO back downstairs to the computer room door. Maybe the man killed the monster before he died? If so, take the dude's trousers!
Before going back down the stairs, make sure to try using the walkie-talkie to see if someone is on the other end. If it doesn't work, check the batteries. If there are batteries, make sure you check the polarity before deciding they are dead (you never know ;)). AND KEEP THE BATTERIES JUST IN CASE - THEY COULD COME IN HANDY LATER!
PEE ESS
To quote Dualnames; BEST THREAD EVAAAAARRREEEERRRREREREREEERRRE!!!!1!111!!!11!!
This reminds me of something similar my friend and I used to do back in school. He and I would draw a scene that we would already know the solution to. We would have to figure out what to do. We would also have the option to "call" the hint line when needed (only 3 times). One scene that comes to mind is a kid on a bike being stopped by two bullies. Very fun.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH Veryweirdguy! I hope to see more of these in the future.
(how the FUCK did I miss this??)
Of course, PANTS!, the only known substance capable of successfully deterring pterodactyls from two-way radio receivers! :=
OKAY, in addition to what Dave and Snake said, if the batteries are dead and for some reason just-so-happen to be, say AA batteries instead of a real radio battery, try rubbing them together. It's partially effective, er, sometimes.
Oh, and now that the pterodactyl's gone, it might be worth a look over the edge that it was guarding, just to make sure we're not missing anything.

And while we're in the area can we check that door we ran past in the corridor? (and then let's head to the farm.)
I second what Stupot said. I hate leaving rooms unexplored.
Didn't we just lose the wallet and pretty much everything along with the pants?

We didn't have that much useful things left anyway, did we? (stapler, wallet, car keys, ...)
But maybe we will find some cool inventory items in one of the other rooms in the corridor. I demand a clutter room (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=43167.0)!

Yes, this is a good time to ask what the hell is going on.
Stop and wonder how our trousers magically re-appeared when we spoke into the walkie-talkie...
Lie to him! Tell him it wasn't a trap for him to kill Betsy, you were spooked when you opened the door. Your boss WAS alive in there when you left, but Betsy must have gotten to him before you led this man there, and she... errr.... jumped on him too.
Make it sound real. Like you're really saddened by his death. Lie about some golf trip you guys once had fun at. Oh and that he was your daughters god-father. He'll totally buy it. Pinch off a tear while you're at it.
While he stares in disbelief at your boxers...

"That must mean...that creature got him too?!?! Oh no! WHYYY! What am I gonna tell his wife? And his three beautiful children? It's gonna be a lean time at the old 'my boss's' this Christmas? The golf course will be so lonely! Did I tell you we used to play golf together? He was the only man I knew to ever get a birdie on hole 12. It was a funny story actually: it was absolutely POURING down with rain, and my wife called me up and said "Turok," (that's what she calls me,) "You'd better come home, it's too stormy out there! Little Jessica is gonna be worried!" and I said "I'm out with my boss." and she said "Oh, well, as Jessica's godfather I guess he knows what's best." Now, of course, he got a hole in one, like I said, and got a trophy for it. Three trophies in fact. And my wife never doubted me again (until she divorced me of course.) I guess you had to be there. I'm gonna miss that guy. Oh, also I own a pony."

...what do you mean 'what man?'"
(http://pucomic.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/adventure136.jpg)
Ask him who he is, who Schofield is, who Schofield should bring, and what all this is about; if he's going to shoot you now for some reason, he can at least explain what he knows so we don't die clueless! :(
Also ask him about „Betsy“
That gun is an issue. He can pretty much do whatever he wants while he has it. Therefore, you should eye the gun very conspicuously and, when he's looking directly at you, slowly make a move for it.

Point behind him and scream horrifyingly, "LOOK OUT!?!". When he turns around to see what's the matter, kick him in the balls and uppercut him when he bends over. Then swiftly take the gun, your radio (that you almost got eaten for, btw (fuck that asshole, WE'RE keeping it!)) and while he's still coughing up his nuts, TAKE HIS PANTS!! (or at least his coat and wear that as some make-shift pair of pants, heh)

"Listen, you're obviously not with Schofield, so I'll level with you. Schofield funded this entire facility, and now it's gotten too...controversial, he wants to shut it down, permanently. He paid me to shut down the power, to set the specimens free, and plant some bombs. He's on his way to finish the job. He has my fiancee as leverage, and I think he's gonna kill us, then blow up the facility."

Great fun, VWG.

I laughed when I saw my name at the ass-end of the credits. My life story.
This was indeed the best game ever! More please, Very Very Guy!
Thanks for the kind words fellas (and fella-ettes!) This was a lot of fun, thanks to all who participated - obviously it wouldn't exist without you all.
I'd love to do another one sometime, will have a break though - if anyone else fancies a go at it be my guest! I only had to draw 154 pretty pictures for it.
Awesome game, thanks veryweirdguy! Just out of curiosity: What would have been the solution to survive?

I was wondering the same thing - did you have a story from the begining or did you make it up as you went along?
Now wait just a minute, superfriends! A closer examination of the so-called gun is in order:
(http://i485.photobucket.com/albums/rr218/ProgZmax/notrigger.gif)
Just as I thought; no trigger. It could be some kind of boomerang, but that's no gun!
I'm ignoring his lack of opposable thumb and missing finger as he could be an apeloid.
The conspiracies are already beginning.
...so, the main character is just faking death! aha!
And there was never actually an explosion. It's just a tree.
'boom' mean tree in dutch, so there you have it...
There's something fishy going on! :=
Let's pause and zoom in on the hand for a closer look.
MY GOD. It's not a boomerang.
(http://i485.photobucket.com/albums/rr218/ProgZmax/zoom.gif)
It's an L-Square! And one oddly only measuring up to 7 inches!
What if we go even CLOSER?

It's not like there was one set solution for everything. I had the idea for the setting, and what that was, but the path was entirely up to you guys. As a result, there are, theoretically, infinite possible solutions to any problem, and I didn't want to lead people down a path telling them my pre-written story.
As an example: I had no idea you guys were going to make a bone torch (how could I?), but once it happened I tried to implement a use for it. That's you guys making and exploring the story and me adapting to it, rather than you trying to figure out what I've come up with.
Other responses may have not gotten you shot, but it seemed that that was an appropriate response to the 'command' that was given.
Anyway, I promised myself I wouldn't talk about it too much, so I'll shush.
Wow, this brings me back! When I used to play D&D as a teen, this was pretty much how we did it - except without the pictures. We rarely bothered with dice and hit points and all that: the dungeon master made up some sticky situation, we tried to talk our way out of it, and the DM decided whether to let us off the hook or (more usually) not. And a good time was had by all.
Great DMing, VWG!
ProgZ, funny! You made my day! :D
There might be a lot of things that's compromise the result of the game if we went back and dissected every pic, heh.
And VWG, I loved the epilogue, btw!

And a good opprtunity to get a break? :P
In retrospect, it's also nice to see how the player character changed from a rather serious depiction to a comic character over time in response to our sometimes nonsensical input. :)
It's been a whileeeeee, but I've decided to archive this all on my blog, for anyone who's interested:
