Once Upon A Narrator
**IMPORTANT** - The game requires sound for the full experience. Please play with audio.
About
Unlike conventional storytelling, you find yourself being forced to listen to a story you don't want to hear.
The Game Jam's Theme
The theme for the jam was "Make me Laugh".
How does this relate to this Game Jam's Theme?
In the course of events, you encounter funny situations while trying to get rid of the narrator.
Instructions (If you are stuck)
The goal of the game is to get rid of the annoying Narrator who keeps reading the book without your consent. Find creative ways to interact with the book and other objects to try to silence the Narrator. Good luck!
Walkthrough (SPOILER - If you are really stuck)
1. The game begins with the Narrator reading the book, and after a few seconds, you can set the book down.
2. After putting the book down, and following a slight delay, the Narrator resumes reading.
3. You can pick up the book and place it on the shelf to attempt to silence the Narrator.
4. The Narrator continues reading, and after a brief delay, you can pick up the book again from the shelf and throw it out of the window by interacting with the window.
5. After throwing the book out of the window, you might believe you have rid yourself of the Narrator. However, the book will respawn mid-air above the table and fall, with the Narrator persistently reading.
6. You can pick up the book once more and place it in the fireplace.
7. The book is burnt, but the Narrator's voice begins playing from your head.
8. After a slight delay, the door to the hallway opens.
9. While walking down the hallway, you need to remain quiet. At some point, you will hear the noise of boots, and upon looking down, you will see a pair of boots. You can either take them off or choose not to.
10. Upon reaching the door, you can either knock or ring the bell; either way, you will gain entry after a few interactions.
11. In the new room, you can turn on the lights by clicking on the switch inside the room near the door.
12. In the middle of the room, there is a chest, and you need to open it to reveal something.
13. Whatever you reveal will be combined with another object in the room to finally attempt to shut down the Narrator.
