Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Hadean Lands is a 2014 Interactive Fiction adventure by Andrew Plotkin. You're the second assistant alchemist on His Majesty's Marcher The Unanswerable Retort, which is stuck in a bizarre fracture of time and space. You're the only one who can save her, as the rest of the crew appear to be disabled, dead, or missing.Unfortunately, you'll need to master everything your superior officers can do to survive. Don't worry. If at first you don't succeed...Hadean Lands is one of the very few pieces of parser-based interactive fiction to be commercially sold since the death of Infocom. It was originally made available only for iOS except for a special cross-platform version for the Kickstarter backers, but versions for Microsoft Windows, macOS, and anything else that can run Inform games are now also available on Steam, Humble Store, and itch.io.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Links to all versions are at the game's website.

The game remembers what you've done and what you've seen, and will repeat things you've done before upon request. This includes going to any particular item or location that you've seen, unlocking any doors along the way and creating any resources required to open them.note It will perform tasks in the way you did them most recently; while this is usually what you want, there are cases where it isn't. In these cases, you can reset and perform substeps individually. This is essential given the "Groundhog Day" Loop nature of the game.

Alchemy Is Magic: Alchemy is depicted as being able to perform magical effects but is approached very scientifically.

Anti-Frustration Features: The game remembers what you've done and what you've seen, and will repeat things you've done before upon request.

In these cases, you can reset and perform substeps individually. This is essential given the "Groundhog Day" Loop nature of the game. After you've made some progress, a reset will automatically start you off past some of the initial barriers.
