Synopsis

Highly atmospheric chiller from Infocom ace Dave Lebling, who draws a lot of inspiration from his alma mater, M.I.T. The game takes place during a massive blizzard. As a student at G.U.E. Tech, your initial task is to relocate your lost term paper. While searching, you uncover an ancient evil trying to take over the school.

Lebling's writing is (as usual) top notch, and he manages to infuse his writing with a welcome dose of humour.
