Trapped in School

This little adventure was designed as an introduction to Interactive Fiction for 4th and 5th grade elementary school students.

The premise of the story in this adventure is that you've fallen asleep in school, and when you awaken, you find that school is over, the doors are locked, and you are trapped in school.

The game has a built-in help system which explains the basics for playing IF and there is also a hint system to help you when you're stuck.

This game won the IF Library competition in 2003. But to be honest, there were only two entries in the competition and the winning margin was small. So, I'm proud, but not cocky about it.
