Before the first 3D video game came out, all video games were text-based adventures. These were simple scenarios with limited interactions. The player would type their actions into the game, and if it was a valid command, the game would respond with new content.

Players will take control of a character together and the GM will play as the parser and control the computer processing your commands. Players will alternate giving commands like GO NORTH, LIGHT LAMP or GET SWORD, which the GM will follow to the best of the imaginary computer's ability. There’s no limit to the number of people that can play and no limit to the fun. So what are you waiting for? It’s time to unplug from your computer and plug into Parsely! Don't forget to hit SAVE and be mindful, because 3 deaths means GAME OVER! ;-) "

This game will be great if you like choose-your-own-adventure books, 80s computer RPGs, and Super Mario.

Players will control a single nameless player character together as a group

This session will be especially good for new players. New players are welcome.
