This is accurate gameplay from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy text adventure that INFOCOM made with the help of Douglas Adams in 1984.
I thought people would find it interesting to see the way a game would creatively do a demo in print in the 1980s since doing it other ways was either too expensive or not very useful from a marketing perspective.

It was very challenging. I never got all the way through it. Amazingly, it only covers a small portion of the first book despite taking hours and hours to play.
Fair enough but it's definitely giving you the "throw random stuff at the parser and have the game be snarky" experience. It's from the point-and-click era, the tail end even, but does a throwback to introduce those elements again.
Definitely another experience than Fallout 4 reducing dialogue to "yeah, nah, question, bail".
