You Cat People Disappoint Me - Now You Must Find the Lost Pig!

Well, I got almost no cat fans in this thread: https://www.chess.com/forum/view/off-topic/an-interactive-fiction-cat-game

So, your punishment is that you have to find the Lost Pig...

Pig lost! Boss say that it Grunk fault. Say Grunk forget about closing gate. Maybe boss right. Grunk not remember forgetting, but maybe Grunk just forget.

(You can play the game online.)

I found the pig but it wont let me discipline it.

It's a slippery pig. I'm fairly sure that it's smarter than Grunk...

Grunk say Lost Pig need bump...

I got the keys and opened the chest today.

It was a good idea at the time.

what.

Roll up your sleeves and be useful. Help the pig.

">hold pig close"

"That not make sense after part about hold pig."

Yeah, I think that's the parser not understanding two verbs together. You're using "close" as an adverb, but I think the parser is reading it as a verb.

Pig no need help. Grunk need help. ;-)

Yes, please try to help out Grunk. His job depends on getting that pig...

Stuck looking for that missing page.

It's been a few years since I did Lost Pig, and I've forgotten a lot of it. Makes me want to go through it again. I'm sure I sketched a map, but no idea where I put it, haha. I did make about six save files and a couple of script files, so I could scroll through a lot of the moves if I wanted to.

Sadly, I don't remember how many hints I might have taken while playing the game.

I do vaguely remember the missing page.

No prob. I’ve started a map. I've looked at a few hints but not too many. Theres not really any helpful hints about the lost page. I’m sure I can find it if I can have a light souce; that’s what I’m really stuck with (lack of light—no hints for that yet).

Actually, never mind, I figured it out.

Just to let it be known: I completed this adventure this morning.

Woo hoo!

I held the pig. I fed the pig. I returned the pig to its rightful home. Sometimes I scratched the pig.

Anyone else for the Lost Pig game? It's really one of the best text adventure games ever!
