The Oil Cellar (cartridge)

A cartridge: nine rooms under the workshop, three keys, the oldest cobweb, and a tin that is empty like the others.

Only played, as a cartridge. The capture on the Slopbox is the picture.

The The lamp is out, and the oil used to be kept downstairs, so the apprentice goes down into the oil cellar with a ruler. Every tin is empty. The rooms hold dust bunnies, loose screws that wind up before they drill, cobwebs that spin themselves thicker and draughtlets that gust twice; at the far end the oldest cobweb in the cellar shuts the door behind you. Behind the last tin is a card signed by the Slopwright. The lamp is still out, which is another story.

A top-down crawl written for the Slopbox in three colours a sprite, so it can go on a handheld: one map of 16 px tiles, the camera flipping a screen at each door, walls as invisible boxes, two small keys and a big one. The music is Pocket Rule, a chiptune from Tinny. This entry is proposed by the codex and is not canon until approved.
