IFComp 2010: The Bible Retold: The Lost Sheep

And now, the second “Bible Retold” title this year. It seems that the original “Bible Retold” from 2006 was a collaboration between the two authors who submitted their retellings independently this year. It’s all too easy to imagine some kind of bet between them. At any rate, this one is pretty different from the other. Spoilers follow the break.

IFComp 2010: The Bible Retold: Following a Star

There are two separate games in this Comp, by two different authors, bearing the supertitle “The Bible Retold”.

IFComp 2010: Rogue of the Multiverse

This is the only game this year written in TADS! TADS used to be one of the major text-adventure systems, Inform’s rival and equal. Heck, the very first IF Comp, back in 1995, had a TADS division and an Inform division, and nothing else. But now, it seems to have fallen victim to the brevity of fashion. Ah well.
