magic key: Taken.
You enter the labyrinth and head east, arriving in the...
Troll Room
This is a rather plain room if you are able to ignore the presence of a massive troll blocking the east exit. Fortunately, he doesn't seem to care about you. Other exits lead west and south.
You are carrying:
a magic key
a can of silly string
a credit card
a ticket

magic keys: Taken.
You leave through the north exit, arriving in the...
Control Room
Look at all of these buttons! The large panel has a keyboard and a microphone, while the pedestal houses what looks very much like a Simon game. There's also a lever on the west and east walls. For such an important-looking room, it sure wasn't very secure.
Exits lead west and south.

The device detonates, leaving only a fine mist where you once stood. Luckily, the Labyrinth Magical Non-Interference Field prevents harm to anything in your vicinity.
Does no one read the instructions anymore?

You carefully examine the party blowout.
You carefully examine the safety pin.

magic keys: Taken.
You head north into the control room. Pushing the red button on the pedestal starts the device to life -- it apparently IS a Simon game.
You pull the red lever. Nothing happens in your immediate vicinity.
You push the blue button. Unfortunately, that was the wrong button; the game ends and the device deactivates after informing you that you scored zero points.
You pull the blue lever. The panel on the north wall slides open, revealing a black monitor.

The purple gate to the east slides open.
The cold does not so much soothe as numb your arm. This is cold comfort (ha ha!) as you are quickly freezing to death.
You hit the key ineffectually against the ice.
Finally, your vision goes black. The cold's just too much - you've become a human popsicle.
Is there a breeze in here or is it just me? Well, you can't say I didn't warn you!

Your distinguishing nose recognizes the flower as hensbane. If you come across any hens, you have a surefire way of dispatching them, assuming you can get them to eat it.
You start running your hand along the walls but then remember that you didn't actually specify a direction to go. It also occurs to you that this method of traversing a maze only works if all of its passages are available from the start.
Two deaths in one round! Are we having fun yet?

You blow into it experimentally. It unfurls and emits a pleasing "FWEEEET."Party blowout wrote:

The monitor is black. You press a key on the keyboard and the monitor springs to life with the following words:
You try out the Simon game again. Pushing various buttons only causes you to lose the game. For kicks, you try playing it for real and get as high as round 10 before losing - not too shabby.

There's no prompt. Typing further on the keyboard produces no results. You even try typing "dance," thinking you're SO clever, but nothing happens. The keyboard seems to be connected to the monitor, but it looks like you'll need to disable "security mode" to use it.Monitor wrote:Security mode enabled
Input dance to continue

Heading west, you return to the Labyrinth Entrance.

You show no tea to the troll. The troll shows no interest.

You examine the monitor, but don't notice anything special about it.
You examine the keyboard. It's a Dvorak. What kind of nerd put this thing together, anyway?
Pushing the blue button starts the Simon game again. You pull the blue lever and the panel slides back up, covering the monitor.

While I examine the keyboard I ask myselft what 'Dvorak' means. than I decide it could mean complicated and that it's better not to tuch the keyboard.
I'm not sad to see the monitor is now hidden behind the panel, because there is nothing special about a boring monitor, but I wounder why someone would cover it like that.
I walk near the place where the panel was and look what's there now.

You scratch your head and take another look at the keyboard. Oh, right -- Dvorak keyboards are a lot like QWERTY keyboards, but they have all the keys in different places. You're relegated to the old hunt'n'peck on this baby, but it is in all other respects a keyboard like any other.
The panel is a gray sheet that covers the monitor, perhaps to keep it from collecting dust. There's nothing special about it.
