Livestream of the ZZT world "Chrono Wars X" by Chronos30 (1997)
After discovering the incredible surprise that "Mr. C" is in fact Chris, the gang gets a massive lore dump explaining where the Alliance came from and how they became so powerful.
Once you're through all the lore (and finally learning the terrible truth about the child that got ran over back in part 8) Chris gives you the grand tour before putting your team to the test with various puzzles and bear shooting. Aside from the really text heavy opening this one has a lot going for it. The puzzles are interesting and things move along.
It also unfortunately has a game breaking bug that renders it unwinnable, as well as an elaborate system of commands to use items and change active party members via the cheat prompt that makes things take longer. Another RPG at the end offers the player the chance to pick their three favorites, though it seems even less varied than the previous one.
And we didn't even finish the game! Though there isn't much left in the second file.
