Playing the game:

This game is a long and challenging text adventure. Most experienced players of interactive fiction will take around 15-25 hours to complete this game.  At 360,000 words, this is one of the largest games ever written in the Inform system.

The difficulty level of this game was designed for those who are already familiar with parser-based interactive fiction and its conventions. If you're not familiar with what the commands INVENTORY or X ME would do, I recommend you try a shorter  adventure first; a list of such games can be found here: https://ifdb.org/search?searchfor=system%3Ainform+-tag%3Acommercial+-tag%3Along-...

What people are saying:

"The narrative threads culminated in an endgame that left me fulfilled in such a way that I haven't stopped thinking about it since."—Zephyr Runner

"It's always nice to have a game that's giant in scope and full of puzzles, but the most important part of Never Gives Up Her Dead for me is that it's always fair. Nothing in it comes off as random or underclued, and I felt like every solution was easily solvable if I just looked around a bit more or thought about the clues from a different perspective."—Lance Cirone

"As I played Never Gives Up Her Dead, I kept coming back to the same thought: 'wait, there's MORE?'

This game is BIG, featuring lots of areas that are mostly separate and self-contained.[...]Each area is almost like a game all on its own, with its own vibes and style of puzzle. It made for really fun and varied gameplay. I really enjoyed this game!"—aluminumoxynitride
