Final Soul: The Text Adventure Game!
Final Soul is a game I designed back in 1995. It's a text based adventure game (in .EXE format), where you control the main character trying to get out of what appears to be a haunted house, after being invited there. You interact with other people in the house, find items to use later to solver other riddles. Because of the compiler used back then, it is limited in some areas, unfortunately - but a pretty fun game none the less. There's a few tricks and cheats as well! If you're familiar with older Sierra (ie, King Quest 1, 2, 3, 4 and the like, then you will pretty much know how this game works). If not, feel free to drop me a line, or check out the walk thru provided down below. The file was uploaded to America Online and was actually a fairly good success there as well! It's already zipped, a mere 87k - so it's a quick download for hours of fun (or as some have called it: 'fun'stration!)
Here's how it appeared on AOL (it should still be available there if you don't want to download it from here and you have America Online):

Others vanished in the game too!
