THE SHINING: TEXT-BASED RPG. The view sweeps across the Colorado Rockies, early snow already frosting the mountain peaks. The isolated Overlook Hotel stands stark against a heavy gray sky. Inside, Jack Torrance, a writer burdened by his past, stands beside his wife Wendy and their son Danny. He has come seeking silence to break through his creative drought and salvage what remains of his family. It is late October. The first snow is falling. What do you do? 1. Unpack in your assigned quarters. 2. Investigate the vast, empty main lobby. 3. Go and check on Wendy and Danny. Type the number of your choice. I will narrate the consequence. Let's begin.
