Guitar Hero as text adventure

<
Champion of Guitars, a reinvention of Guitar Hero as a text adventure, is now playable online. Brandon has the details over at Boing Boing Offworld. From the game:

The current management of this rather seedy venue doesn't much care about appearances, apparently. Nonetheless, it's become one of the hottest spots in the area, attracting surly alcoholics from all around. A variety of local acts, the vast majority unrelentingly terrible, play here every Tuesday night. Coincidentally, it's Tuesday night.

I died the second time. Who knew you could die playing Guitar Hero?

Walkthrough:

1) Pick up guitar
2) Press (color) button
3) Press (color) button
4) Press (color) button
5) Press (color) button
6) Press (color) button

Etc.

It's almost as boring as the real thing.

Good lord, that game is cruel! Press a few wrong buttons, the crowd tramples you and you die!! ;-)

I'm a long-time fan of Bill Meltsner's work, it's good to see him get a spot on BB!
