In RoundRobin fashion, the story then branches out into paragraphs written collectively by Internet users. The original intention was to see what kind of a story would come out of this. We'll spoil it for you: the results are [[WorldOfChaos utter]] [[WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs madness]].

->''The place is deep, dark, and mysterious. This is wrong. All wrong. It wasn't supposed to be like this.''

->''But you have no choice now, do you? No choice but the staircase in front of you.''



* ArchivePanic: These adventures are big. How big? Games 2 and 3 have 41119 and 35253 pages, respectively.


Added DiffLines:

* RunningGag: Every of the three available games begins with the protagonist standing before a staircase and having to decide whether to go up or down.
