Twine has risen to prominence as an accessible, powerful tool for creative narrative-based games. Now, TV host Stephen Colbert has jumped onto the tool with a new, free game: Escape from the Man-Sized Cabinet.
As the title suggests, you play as Colbert -- trapped in a cabinet. The adventure, predictably, does not end there (there's even a centaur.) It was created (at least in part) by Rob Dubbin, who writes for Colbert's show and is also a software developer.
It's a simple and silly game, but it highlights the appeal of Twine very quickly.
