Reviews: IF Competition Reviews

Every autumn, starting in 1995, the rec.arts.int-fiction community has held a short text adventure competition. Er, that's a competition of short text adventures, not a -- never mind. The only rule is that players should be able to finish each game in two hours.

(There is an official competition web site).
