Ooh!

I love Zork! Thanks for opening this up for us, Susan!

Just out of curiosity, who programmed this?

*EDIT*

Found out, I'm lame...

I have already gotten the good ending with full points, as evidenced by my bitchin' new badge.

Gotta say though, the original felt harder, or at least felt that it had more stuff to do in it.

Okay, stupid question. How do you get the ping pong ball out of the hole?
Remember where the hole is in relation to everything else. There's another item/scenery thingy there you probably missed that is key.

Ugh... I couldn't finish the first one after an hour or so of playing...
IF I can complete this one, I'll go back and have a go at the first again :D

Can't figure out how to get the good ending. Think I have the right item to use, but not sure how to use it. Can't find the right verb for it I think. Lot of fun though, really enjoyed it.

I can't find the verb to use the key with the ferris wheel or any of the parts with the machine :S
Any hints?

Have to use 'Put' for all of those, if I'm not mistaken. Such as 'Put [part] in Machine'

I just got the good ending first try and now I'm figuring out how to get the bad ending.
Something tells me its got something to do with that little girl.

I think I need more hints on this. The ball is the only thing I'm missing...

Hooray! got the good ending, It's not exactly a strategic choice whether you get it or not, but it is slightly telling of how you play games on the whole.

Aha thanks. The thing is that what you need is no longer in the descriptions anywhere. But I found it now in the backlog :)

No problem.

Now, what to do with the dog...

I gave it the handkerchief, which did nothing, and I can't get it back.
Any tips?
