Description

Not afraid to try but A fairy tale that turns into a thinking game Giant eliminateer is an old-school text adventure that uses a familiar Jack-and-the-Beanstalk setup to pull you into logic and math problem-solving. You read descriptions, type commands, and work through puzzles that require careful reasoning. It’s not flashy, but it’s surprisingly engaging if you like solving problems with a notebook mindset. What “playing” actually means here Instead of jumping or fighting, you interpret text, explore locations, collect items, and solve structured challenges. The game expects you to slow down, reread, and test ideas. If you enjoy puzzles that feel like mini brain-teasers inside a story, that’s the hook. Story beats that guide progress You begin with a simple errand and quickly stumble into the classic fairy-tale escalation: unusual trade, strange growth, bigger world, bigger risks. The story is a framework that keeps the puzzles feeling purposeful, because you’re not solving problems “for points,” you’re solving them to move through the adventure. The puzzle design: clear, but not forgiving Many puzzles rely on logic, numbers, or spatial thinking rather than guesswork. Progress often comes from identifying the rule behind a problem, then applying it consistently. The game can feel tough if you try random commands, but it becomes manageable if you treat each obstacle like a defined question with a defined answer. Parser basics without frustration Text adventures reward simple, direct commands. “Look” to recheck a scene, “inventory” to confirm what you’re carrying, and short action phrases like “take rope” or “go north” usually work better than long sentences. If a command fails, rephrase with a simpler verb rather than assuming the game is broken. Mapping: the seliminate nobody tells you to use If the game includes navigation, mapping is your best tool. Sketch rooms as boxes and connect them with arrows for directions. Mark places that seem important. When you do this, you stop looping in circles and start making intentional progress. The notebook setup that makes it easier (unique) A practical way to avoid getting stuck is to maintain three quick notes: - A map page (rooms, directions, locked paths) - A facts page (numbers, clues, constraints) - A experiments page (what you tried, what happened) This prevents repeated mistakes and turns confusion into a process. In puzzle-heavy text games, process is power. Controls Controls can vary by host/version. Use the in-game help/settings if yours differs. Typically you type commands on the keyboard and press Enter. If you’re playing through an emulator or web wrapper, check how it handles special keys (like backspace) so typing feels comfortable. Who will enjoy it most Giant eliminateer is great for puzzle fans, teachers, or anyone who likes reading-based problem solving. If you want fast action, it will feel slow. But if you like games that reward careful thought and clear notes, it delivers a kind of satisfaction modern games rarely target. Ending on a good note The best way to finish a session is to stop right after solving something meaningful, with your notes updated. That way the next time you return, you’re stepping back into a story you understand—not restarting a mystery you already solved once. "
