Why this must be read:

If you ever played Infocom adventure games, you will understand the format of this story immediately; if not, you will wander through it confusedly until you start to have a giggling fit and surrender to its sheer absurdity.

The story is silly, wonderful, and includes (among other oddities) a pocket fisherman, a chaingun with flamethrower attachment, cybernetic attachments, St. Peter, and a spoon. And flying monkeys.

>KILL WINGED MONKEYS WITH SPOON
You crush the skull of three winged monkeys with your spoon.  They die.
You fall and splatter all over the ground.

                   *** You have died ***

Game over
<Quit, Save, Restore?>

>RESTORE

Just read it.
