In both cases, it's an frustrating failure on the part of the creators to [make important objects distinctive/implement synonyms], though in the graphical world you actually get some people who think it makes a clever "puzzle." Those people need to be staked out in the sun near a red anthill, IMO. Try that 'puzzle,' dammit!<BR/><BR/> My favorite one-room IF game is basically a "room escape" though. It's called "Enlightenment" and the idea is that you've just completed some old-school grab-everything-that-isn't-nailed-down treasure hunt and you're on your way out when the door slams behind you, trapping you on one side of a bridge over a chasm. There's a troll chained to the bridge who's eager to eat you. You've got a crapload of shiny, glowing magical treasures and things, and one can of grue repellent. You need to find a way to cover, hide, extinguish, or otherwise put out all the sources of light in your possession and around the ledge, so the troll will be eaten by a grue and you can cross safely. It was awesome. Here's the entry for it at Baf's: http://wurb.com/if/game/250<BR/><BR/> Oh, and that Angels Fall First trailer is pretty cool, but "burocracy?" They need a proofreader! And fiery explosions with no atmosphere?
