AT THE PARTY
This being New Year's Eve, you are at a party. This being New Year's
Eve, you are at a very bad party. You have already tried talking to
everyone here, but most of them are too plastered to respond.
There is a board game here.

> X GAME

It is called "Claim to Fame," and is a cross between Charades and the
$24,000 pyramid.

> PLAY GAME

Trust me, you don't want to.

> X PEOPLE

The other guests are thoroughly plastered.

> TALK TO GUESTS

What do you want to say?

> TELL GUESTS ABOUT FRANCE

The other guests are uninterested in your trip to France, as they all
just returned from there themselves.

> Z

Time passes...
