• Example: * Boatman - A sample involving modified descriptions for items in an enterable container with the player.
• Example: ** Introductions - A system whereby both things and rooms can be given an "introduction", a tag line of text that is added the first time the player sees them in the room description if they are the main topic of a paragraph, or as an addendum to the object's description the first time it's examined. Introduction text can also be reviewed by the player with a THINK ABOUT command.
• Example: ** Gobs of Mayonnaise - A scenario with various objects competing for our attention.
