Burglary! by Himself
                   
                'Burglary!', the game that puts you inside a house with the intent of finding (and stealing) a most precious item.  Stealing has never been more text-based!

                Never mind, as I was looking at some art to clear my mind, I realized my oversight. That'll teach me to actually read stuff that pops up on screen...
As for the review:
I found this to be just hard enough to be fun to play, just how I like it.
Then why only 3 stars, you ask?
Well, as Steve pointed out, there are some objects that get removed from your inventory when you examine their hiding place for a second time.
Furthermore, I found the fact that I had to spell out entire objects very annoying for example: I had to type ''something...'' instead of ''something''.
I think that's something that's very easily overlooked by players.
As for the puzzles: There were some clever ways of hiding key objects around the house, and they were solvable with just a little logical thinking.
And I personally found the books and the note a very nice touch!
