Slaying the Heartworm

This game is from the old Ludum Dare platform. You can try viewing the original page on Web Archive
(may not load correctly).
The theme of "final boss" felt quite interesting to me, since I work in text-based games, which don't lend themselves to twitchy controls or action-packed battles. So instead I decided to make a final boss battle in the form of an adventure game. The challenge is in figuring out where to strike.

Useful commands: "push", "pull", "take", "open", "attack X with sword", "turn on", "turn off". Move by typing compass directions plus up/down.

Can be downloaded and played on your computer with an z-code interpreter.
