WELCOME, ADVENTURER to the mysterious Colossal Cave! Somewhere in the twisted halls and caverns is the AFIKOMEN, a treasure of immeasurable value! YOUR QUEST is to find the AFIKOMEN.
[[Begin->Fancy Foyer]]You are standing in the FANCY FOYER of the COLOSSAL CAVE.
It is very dusty.
There is a doormat that says "GO AWAY". (link-reveal: "Maybe the AFIKOMEN is under it?")[ You find a magical dust-bunny. "Hey!" it says. "What's the matter with you?! I was napping!" You hastily cover it back up with the doormat.]
There are a pair of a Giant's boots. (link-reveal: "Maybe the AFIKOMEN is in them?")[ You accidently smell the inside of the Giant's boots. If the AFIKOMEN is in them, it's just not worth looking.]
[[West->Dragon Shul]] is the Dragon Shul.
[[East->Decadent Den]] is the Decadent Den.
[[North->Goblintown]] is Goblintown.A shul, but for dragons.
If you're a dragon, you get a Rarrrr Mitzvah.
Sorry.
There is a tallis bag the size of a small car. (link-reveal: "Maybe the AFIKOMEN is inside it?")[ There's just a dragon-tallis, forged in fire from the armor of foolhardy knights.]
There is a stack of shul newsletters. (link-reveal: "Maybe the AFIKOMEN is hidden under one them?")[ No, but you do learn that Sarah Dragonowitz just got engaged. Remember when she was just a little Aleph hatchling? How time flies!]
[[East->Fancy Foyer]] is the Fancy Foyer.A den of stunning Jet-Age-era decadence.
There are many sofas.(link-reveal: "Maybe the AFIKOMEN is under one of them?")[ Ah yes, the sofa cushions. A classic! But all you find is the crumbs of a different afikomen from like 300 years ago, and something that looks suspiciously like the bones of the person that hid it.]
On the wall in front of you, there is a portrait of the late Ug-Zog XIII, King-Under-The-Mountain. (link-reveal: "Maybe the AFIKOMEN is behind it?")[ Behind the portrait is a portrait of the late (link-reveal: "Ug-Zog XII, King-Under-The-Mountain.")[ Behind the portrait is a portrait of the late (link-reveal: "Ug-Zog XI, King-Under-The-Mountain.")[Behind the portrait is a portrait of the late (link-reveal: "Ug-Zog X, King-Under-The-Mountain.")[Behind the portrait is a portrait of the late (link-reveal: "Ug-Zog IX, King-Under-The-Mountain.")[Behind the portrait is a portrait of the late (link-reveal: "Ug-Zog VIII, King-Under-The-Mountain.")[Behind the portrait is a portrait of the late (link-reveal: "Ug-Zog VII, King-Under-The-Mountain.")[Behind the portrait is a portrait of the late (link-reveal: "Ug-Zog VI, King-Under-The-Mountain.")[Behind the portrait is a portrait of the late (link-reveal: "Ug-Zog V, King-Under-The-Mountain.")[Behind the portrait is a portrait of the late (link-reveal: "Ug-Zog IV, King-Under-The-Mountain.")[Behind the portrait is a portrait of the late (link-reveal: "Ug-Zog III, King-Under-The-Mountain.")[Behind the portrait is a portrait of the late (link-reveal: "Ug-Zog II, King-Under-The-Mountain.")[Behind the portrait is a portrait of the late (link-reveal: "Ug-Zog I, King-Under-The-Mountain.")[ There is no AFIKOMEN behind the portrait. At least you learned all about the Ug-Zog Dynasty.]]]]]]]]]]]]]
There is an ominmous curtain. (link-reveal: "Maybe it conceals the AFIKOMEN?")[ You push aside the curtain. Before you is an incomprehensible cosmic horror. Nearly losing your marbles, you cover it with the curtain again.]
[[West->Fancy Foyer]] is the Fancy Foyer.Goblins live here.
They aren't the creepy Harry Potter hook-nosed banker goblins (gee I wonder where that imagery comes from??????) They're just small green people with sharp teeth that live underground and try to sell tchotchkes to adventurers such as yourself.
There's a little Judaica shop. (link-reveal: "Maybe the AFIKOMEN is in the display case?")[ It isn't, but there's a lovely watercolor of the afikomen with the word "אפיקומן" written under it (which is Hebrew for "afikomen"). You buy it for two silver pieces.]
There's a spooky bookstand. (link-reveal: "Maybe the AFIKOMEN is in one of the books?")[ You open the ancient tomes one by one... one of them is a trick book!! The bookstand slides aside to reveal a [[trapdoor.->Treasure Room]]]
[[South->Fancy Foyer]] is the Fancy Foyer.You descend through the trap door into a secret treasure room.
There is a Wizard.
The Wizard says: "Somewhere in this treasure room is the AFIKOMEN. You have ONE GUESS. If you guess wrong, you'll be trapped with me forever!!"
Where is the AFIKOMEN?
[[In the pile of gold]]
[[In the pile of the wizard's dirty laundry]]
[[Underneath the jeweled sword]]
[[Everywhere]]"WRONG!" cackles the Wizard. "Though," he adds, "I don't blame you for trying to walk away from here with a pile of gold instead of half a piece of matzah."
[[Continue->THE END]]"WRONG GUESS!" the wizard cackles. "And, for the record, that's my CLEAN laundry. I just haven't put it away yet."
[[Continue->THE END]]"WRONG!" cackles the Wizard. "That's where I hid the AFIKOMEN last year! You didn't think I'd hide it in the same place twice, did you?"
[[Continue->THE END]]The Wizard gasps. "CORRECT!" he says. "Alas, I had hidden the AFIKOMEN where I keep my staff. But I smushed it by accident. Then I forgot to clean it up, and I guess the crumbs got everywhere. Anyway, congratulations, but since you can't actually take the AFIKOMEN out of here, I guess you're stuck here with me forever."
YOU WIN???You're stuck in the treasure room with the Wizard for all of eternity.
THE END
