About this game

Life in Port Terris is tough. There’s never quite enough to eat, nor quite enough work, and your friends have a nasty habit of being snatched up by the Constables and their bots. When the majordomo of a Great House offers you employment, a warm bed, and all the food you can eat, it’s a tempting offer. Never mind that the alternative is a long stay in the City Dungeons.

"The Butler Did It" is a 300,000 word interactive novel by Daniel Elliot, and a finalist in the Choice of Games writing contest, where your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based—without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

It doesn’t take long to realize that things are a little bit off though, to say the least. At Coburg Manor, you’ll make friends, battle enemies, and uncover a mystery far deeper and stranger than you ever imagined.

• Play as male, female, or nonbinary; gay, straight, bisexual, or asexual
• An odyssey in steampunk, with a twist you'll never predict
• Face foes both human and mechanical with your wits, sword, or skill with steam
• Expose a conspiracy that threatens the very fabric of your society, or choose to keep its secret
• Get to know a diverse cast of characters, and you just might find love
• Maybe end up on a spaceship?

Will you save your home from the strange apocalypse that its people don't even suspect, or will you fall prey to madness, like so many of your friends?

First off, I wish I had much more room to write! All of the games I have played from Hosted games and Choice of games is flawless, especially this gem! I really loved the plot and setting! This game was just overall amazing in everyway! I do have one problem though, nothing major. I have only done one playthrough of this game so far and the ending I got was, in my opinion, the best! The problem is that it seemed too abrupt and I didn't feel like there was enough closure to certain things.
