About

A Change in the Weather is a text adventure. It won first prize in the Inform division of the inaugural Interactive Fiction Competition in 1995.

You went on a picnic with some friends and decided to explore. Suddenly there is a torrential downpour and you decide to seek shelter. The game is quite difficult and the puzzles rely heavily on changes in the environment following the rainstorm.

A Change in the Weather was included as a bonus game on the Infocom Classic Text Adventure Masterpieces CD.
