Generic Text Adventure (also occasionally called Forumquest) is an interactive fiction game-type thing that stars the Generic Text Adventure Protagonist exploring some derelict ruins. Originally run on the forums for the I Wanna Be The Guy community, after a catastrophic failure there it eventually migrated to The Grey Labyrinth, where it is currently in the second chapter.
