Okay, you're looking for a new adventure game? Here's a brand-new
*text* adventure game. Full-size, fully polished, as intricate as I
know how to write 'em.

------
Marooned in an alien, airless wasteland -- your starship fractured --
your crewmates missing. Can an apprentice alchemist learn how to survive?

Just five US dollars! I've been writing text games for decades(*) but
this is the first time I'm charging money for one.(**) It's an
experiment!

Available for iOS, Windows, Mac, and Linux. (There's an experimental
Android interpreter but I haven't tested it fully.)

(* Really. Started in 1995. Or 1984 if you count the ones I wrote in
BASIC.)

(** Okay, I put up a couple on the App Store recently for a dollar
each. But those were old games which were available for free. _Hadean
Lands_ is my first purely commercial text game.)
