Children see the world differently from adults.
A box to a child could be a spaceship, or a duck, or duck ship, or a space duck.
To a child, because they like to play, everything can be a toy.
Try to imagine how you would approach these situations as a child.
The idea of the game is to find your lost toy Mr Giraffe and
explore the house. Try to imagine yourself as a small child
and choose the options you want to rather than what you may
think is the right way. Try to perceive the world as a child
would, and most importantly have fun.

Bundled with GLUXE. Windows Glulxe is an interpreter for text adventures in the Glulx format. which is a format designed by Andrew Plotkin to move beyond the Z-code format supported by Windows Frotz. Glulx removes all the size limitations of Z-code, and has a more powerful input and output model, supporting graphics and sounds in various formats. Like Z-code, the standard way of writing a Glulx adventure game is with Graham Nelson's Inform compiler.
Demitrius and Jack take no responsibility or ownership of GLUXE, only of the GBLORB file within, called Child's Play.
