All Things Devours

A piece of Interactive Fiction. Is on the list Interactive Fiction Top 50 of all time (2015 edition).

All Things Devours is a short piece of interactive fiction, leaning strongly towards the text-adventure end of the spectrum. It explores an all-too-familiar science fiction paradigm in what I hope is a rather refreshing and satisfying manner. However, due to the intrinsic nature of its subject matter, it is more cruel than one might hope for a modern piece of interactive fiction. In particular, any move you make may put things into an unwinnable state. You are therefore encouraged to save frequently, and also to realise [sic] that you will probably have to start over several times to find the most satisfactory ending
