Glass by Emily Short

The Prince sits awkwardly on the couch, holding his glass slipper and trying to keep it from crushing.

@ King's Scribe, like you, I would prefer all games to provide a reasonable response when any mentioned object is looked at. At the very least a response of "You can safely ignore that" would be better than "You can't see any such thing!" I've got used to this shortcoming, however, as it is common in older games and those with substantial text and hence many objects (like this one).

I *want* to like this but there's a big problem with items in the description and what you can see. The prince is sitting on a couch, but you can't examine the couch because "You can't see any such thing". The same for the carpet, and the old lady's skirt...

Good IF.
You say words to steer the outcome. Has a handful of different endings.

This is brilliant. A cleverly written twist on an old story

Took me a while to figure out that I wasn't the prince. I thought he was just really awkward and had a squeaky voice.

Fantastic writing! I haven't gotten to all the endings yet, but this was certainly fun.

This is perfect! It took me a bit to get the hang of it. I played it 5 or 6 times and loved the different endings. Challenging but not too hard. Really good writing.
