(Note: This is supposed to be frustrating. I do actually play the role of the computer, and the computer wants clear, precise commands. The HELP option is always around, so if you have no clue what to do, just ask for HELP(caps optional, computer reads both). Also, this is a CYOA, which means anyone can post a command and it'll be accepted.)
WELCOME TO THE GAME. YOU INTERACT WITH THE COMPUTER. THE COMPUTER SYSTEM DOES NOT UNDERSTAND COMPLICATED COMMANDS, SO KEEP THINGS SIMPLE. WHEN YOU WISH TO SURVEY YOUR SURROUNDINGS, SIMPLY SAY "LOOK". IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO EXAMINE A SPECIFIC OBJECT, SAY "LOOK [OBJECT]". WHEN ATTEMPTING TO USE AN OBJECT, SIMPLY SAY "USE [OBJECT]". WHEN DOING AN ACTION, SIMPLY SAY "PICK UP/GET IN/DRIVE TO [NAME]". IF HELP IS REQUIRED, SIMPLY SAY "HELP". INVENTORY IS ACCESSIBLE AT ANY TIME VIA COMMAND "INVENTORY".
YOU FIND YOURSELF IN A ROOM.

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND COMMAND "LOOK IN PANTS". YOU CAN NOT FIND OBJECT "PANTS" BECAUSE YOU DO NOT KNOW YOUR SURROUNDINGS.

THE ROOM IS SMALL, ALMOST CRAMPED. IT IS HARD TO SEE, BUT YOU CAN FAINTLY MAKE OUT THE IMAGE OF A SMALL BED IN ONE CORNER OF THE ROOM, WITH NO SHEETS AND NO PILLOW. BESIDE THE BED IS A WOODEN DESK, ON TOP OF IT A WHITE QUILL IN A HALF-EMPTY INK BOTTLE. ACROSS THE ROOM, THERE LIES A BOOK, OPEN ON ITS SIDE, ONE FACE LEANING AGAINST THE WALL AND THE OTHER ON THE FLOOR. THERE ARE NO WINDOWS AND NO DOORS VISIBLE.
(yes, it's the exact same scenario from last time and the time before that.)

(because tikobe is actually trying to play this instead of being an idiot, I'm going with his command.)
YOU LOOK AT THE BOOK. ON THE PAGE THAT IS OPEN, WRITTEN IN DRIED INK ARE SOME WORDS. "TAKE THE LOCK AND THROW AWAY THE KEY, CAN YOU FIND OUT HOW TO OPEN ME?" YOU THINK IT IS A RIDDLE OF SOME SORT. THE OTHER PAGES ARE ALL EMPTY, OR TOO FADED TO READ IN THE DIM LIGHT.

PULL(assuming this is a command that works) Books out one by one
(Like, what you might see in a mystery movie where they'll pull the various books out to see if its a secret entrance)

TAKING A LOOK AT THE INK BOTTLE, YOU NOTICE A RECTANGULAR IMAGE IN THE FAINT DUST ON THE DESK IT SITS ON, JUST ABOUT THE SHAPE OF THE BOOK ACROSS THE ROOM. THE INK BOTTLE ITSELF IS ALMOST EMPTY, THE BLACK INK INSIDE BARELY TOUCHING THE QUILL. THE QUILL IS WHITE, AND ALL OF IT, EXCEPT THE VERY END WHERE IT TOUCHES THE INK STILL IN THE BOTTLE, IS DRY. YOU THINK THAT, NORMALLY, A QUILL WOULD BE ABLE TO REACH ALL THE WAY THROUGH AN INK BOTTLE, THIS INK BOTTLE IS QUITE TALL AND HAS SOME WRITING AROUND THE BOTTOM THAT IS TOO SMALL TO READ.

YOU TIP THE INK BOTTLE OVER, CAUSING THE INK TO COLLECT ON ONE SIDE, WHICH IS NOW THE BOTTOM. THE QUILL MOVES A LITTLE BIT. YOU HAVE ACCOMPLISHED NOTHING IN THIS ACT.

THE ONLY DECIPHERABLE TEXT IS ON THE PAGE THAT WAS OPEN WHEN YOU PICKED UP THE BOOK. IT READS: "TAKE THE LOCK AND THROW AWAY THE KEY, CAN YOU FIND OUT HOW TO OPEN ME?" YOU ARE FAIRLY SURE IT IS A RIDDLE OF SOME SORT. THE OTHER PAGES IN THE BOOK ARE ALL EMPTY OR TOO FADED TO READ IN THE DIM LIGHT.

THE LIGHT IN THE ROOM IS PERSISTENT, COMING FROM EVERYWHERE YET NOWHERE, BUT THERE IS NO VISIBLE DOOR, WINDOWS, FLAME OR ELECTRIC LIGHT SOURCE.

THE WALLS ARE VERY SOLID. YOU CANNOT DETERMINE WHAT MATERIAL THEY ARE MADE OUT OF.

YOU TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT THE BED. THE MATTRESS IS TOUGH, BUT IF NOTHING ELSE WERE AVAILABLE, YOU WOULD RATHER SLEEP ON IT THAN THE FLOOR. THE FRAME IS MOSTLY MADE OF WOOD, SMOOTHED AND POLISHED. TAKING A QUICK PEEK UNDER THE BED, YOU SEE A SMALL OBJECT THAT YOU CANNOT MAKE OUT.
