The game I have here, is a little text adventure game called Humbug. It used to be shareware, but now the author has released the game for public distribution. From what I understand you (the player) is sent to your grandfathers house for the holidays. I haven't played much of it, but this description I found on another site makes it sound really wierd and fun.
"Why is Jasper the dentist so desperate that Grandad should sell the manor?
Why has Grandad hidden a time machine in the cellar?
Why does the octopus insist on performing the ancient ritual of Wubble A-Gloop with you?
What doesn’t Kevin the clockwork shark like about your haircut?
What would you do with a trombone, a terrapin and half a pound of lard?"

Let me know if you will host it or not. Thanks

P.S. I just realized that this game is available directly from the authors site.... Still, I think that this gem will be brought to public attention if it is at least linked to from this site. Please let me know what you all think about hosting/linking/forgeting about this game.
