So yeah, great idea here.
Let's act out a text-adventure game. You know, the really old games that had no graphics and instead, to navigate you had to type out what the computer asks you for. So for example:
-What is your name?
>Aegis
And to navigate, you basically go like this:
>Move left to door.
If you got the correct command, the computer will then proceed on with the game...but in text-mode!
So, you can either take this seriously, or just goof off with your commands. Doesn't matter. Only I (the narrator) can make the game proceed, and anybody can chip in a command. Ok? Hope this makes sense.

You wake up in a small room. You are sitting in an old leather chair, at a wooden desk in considerable disrepair. On it is a pen and a blank piece of paper, and a wooden box with a lid on it. One of the desk’s two drawers is open, but it is empty. The rest of the small room is fairly empty, and its pastel wallpaper is peeling off the walls to reveal some form of stone wall. If you had to guess, this is probably a basement – but what do you know? There is a wooden table in the corner with a typewriter sitting on it. There is a wooden door on the end of the room opposite where you are seated.
The sights in this room are beautiful, sure, and this chair sure is comfortable, but it suddenly occurs to you that you have absolutely no idea how you got in this chair. Or this room. Or this basement. Or this area, for that matter. This doesn’t look like the basement in your house at all.
Or does it? You cannot seem to remember what your house looks like. You can’t seem to remember your name, either. First things first: what’s your name?
