Jacqueline, Jungle Queen! by Eaten By A Grue

You are Jacqueline McBean, modern woman for the Thirties and intrepid international correspondent for the Fresno Bee. The good news is that you're on your way to a plum assignment among the glitzy spires and glamorous nightclubs of beautiful Golanaland. The bad news is that the plane only makes it ninety-nine percent of the way to Gola City and that last one percent is a real doozy. Alone in the heart of the Golanese jungle and armed only with the powers granted by the ancient jungle shrines, can you learn the ways of the animals, wield torrential rains and searing heat, and become at last the mighty Jungle Queen?

Of course you can! You're a modern woman for the Thirties!

The first couple rooms are written well, but I'm seriously frustrated. There are exits, but not visible, even when they SHOULD be visible. For example, in the first room you can climb up out of the plane. So there should be a visible up exit, or climb, or climb on seat, or something. But there's nothing.

So I made it to the second room, and once everything started telling me "I don't understand that command", I gave up in frustration and quit.

I really enjoyed the dynamics of this adventure. I'd be interested in some sort of sequel about what her life is like afterwards, using her powers to be the best at her job. I really enjoyed your other game, Whitefield Academy of Witchcraft, as well. I hope that you make more games soon... or if you have other games somewhere, please point me in their direction!

Great fun. Wonderfully written with a great sense of humor. Was able to make it through with out any help although at times I was tempted. Everything you need is right there if you take time to pick it up as you go. Overall a good play and certainly worth the time. Thanks for the effort in putting it together. Can't believe you only got third place.

Short. Logical. Funny and fun! Most importantly it was creative. Would have been nice if certain functions didn't require such a specific sequence of commands. overal a great fun!
