Which-Way Adventure

By John Walker on October 6th, 2007.

Ok, this is the stupidest thing you’ll play this year. And I bet all of Kieron’s money that you play it through at least seven times.

A common screen

Which-Way Adventure is a Flash-drawn choose-your-own-adventure where the choice between jumping down a manhole or crawling through a fence can be the difference between becoming trapped in 1908 as a shoe cobbler’s apprentice, or seeing a lady acrobat with her top off before being eaten by a Manticore. Perhaps you’ll destroy capitalism, or maybe you’ll become a hobo, riding the trains, before being eaten by a Manticore. There’s a fairly strong chance you’ll be eaten by a Manticore.

It’s ages old, so snooty netsnobs will sneer, but I, like you, hadn’t seen it before. And our lives are more enriched.
