The Accidental Series

CLI-Games' flagship comedy-crawler trilogy follows a turnip farmer whose small decisions keep opening much larger doors. Each chapter is one ordinary catalog card; later briefings stay sealed until the story says otherwise.

The Story So Far

Begin in Accidental Knighthood, where Mudbury's least likely adventurer gets one problem, several routes, and no useful preparation. Reach any qualifying ending and the terminal will tell you when the next chapter opens. The second and third briefings reveal themselves in order.

How It Plays

Text adventure. Type commands. Make choices. Die repeatedly until you figure it out.

  • north, south, east, west - move around
  • look - examine surroundings
  • take [item] - pick stuff up
  • use [item] - interact with things
  • talk [name] - speak to characters
  • inventory - check your pockets
  • help - see all commands

Multiple endings matter. You only need one qualifying route to continue, so explore rather than hunt for a single official answer. Guest progress can open the next chapter in the current tab; run auth at the ending to claim it.

Tips

  • Turnips are never just turnips
  • Death is a teacher, not a failure state
  • Talk to everyone twice
  • Read the ending text before leaving the tab
  • If the next chapter opens as a guest, claim it before you go
