Welcome to 199X

On today's voyage:

Another episode from The Lost Tapes! This one features Alex and Drew Allen of Narrative Imperative Films!

An adventure in an old spooky house awaits-- but are we solving a mystery, or are we just annoying teens invading the home of an infirm old woman?

Today's Voyage -- Interactive Fiction! Specifically, the very first lost tape-- a caper involving butt crystals, uncomfortable stereotypes from a 1970s children's book, and a Saddam Hussein lookalike kills Kyle!

Where will the choices lead? Honestly, about half of them lead to just giving up and letting the authorities handle it, weirdly.

A dark, stormy night brings Drew Allen and his uncle to the shores of Lost Island, except not the one with the attractive people and the smoke monster. This one does have a lot of talking animals, though.
