Project #2
Inform Game: "The Best Buy"
My Inform Game is titled "The Best Buy." It takes place during Christmas time in one of my favorite stores, Best Buy.
My motivation and inspiration for this story was The Sims 2 expansion pack, Nightlife, which came out today (September
15, 2005). I thought about how much I wanted to be at Best Buy to get the game. Then I started to think of all the other
items Best Buy has to offer: computers, electronics, CDs, DVDs, and more. I thought of a time when a person would be
going all around a store with a purpose and that time is when a person has been sent out to get something for someone
else, more specifically, Christmas time. That is how my story and my Inform game was born.
I hope you enjoy my game. It is not hard to win. The directions of the rooms are in the descriptions of the rooms. You
may want to draw a map though because the directions will show once, but the layout is almost like that of an ordinary
Best Buy store.
Your objective in the game is to buy items for your family members in Best Buy. If you get the wrong item, you lose.
If you go to checkout and forget to get something for someone, you lose. It may take a couple of tries to play the game
without losing, but it is easy and fun.
The Space is the Best Buy store with 7 sections (rooms): Entrance, Checkout, CDs, DVDs, Games, Electronics, and
Computers. There are objects in each section you are to interact with. After you have collected gifts for your family
members you can go to the checkout and win the game.
