Welcome to Text Quest
You are in a hallway. Obvious exits are West, South,
and Over There. Around you is a dagger and another
dagger.
What will you do?
STRONG BAD: Oooh, this is gonna be good. I hope I find some scrolls. Or maybe a flask. {typing} get dagger
{Text appears on the screen reading "What is 'dagger'?"}

Fun Facts
Trivia
- You can hear the hum in the background when Strong Bad speaks, implying that this was recorded before The Brothers Chaps got a better microphone and thus is an authentic old email.
- These emails were originally up on the now defunct WAP version of Strong Bad Email.
Real-World References
- "What is dagger?" is probably a reference to how many old text adventures usually wouldn't do what you told them to.
Fast-Forward
- The text game probably led to Thy Dungeonman, seeing as it's extremely similar.
- The comment on scrolls and flasks are referenced in Thy Dungeonman, for these are key items in Thy Dungeonman.
- The dagger in Thy Dungeonman that you can get without even being told about it is probably a reference to this email.
