Save the Principal

You are standing in front of the school. The school you know very well. But there is something strange here. The windows are dark and there is a sign hanging on the door. <br> <div class='img-container'><img src='principal_imgs/entrance.png'></div> (link:"Look at the sign.")[ The sign says: "SAVE THE PRINCIPAL!"] [[Enter the school.->kiosk]] (set: $bronzekey to false) (set: $silverkey to false) (set: $goldenkey to false) (set: $janitor to false)

Once upon a time there was a school but its students couldn't enter it for more than a year. That caused weird things to happen there. You can help to solve that and bring everything back to normal. Good luck. <br> <div class='img-container'><img src='principal_imgs/school.png'></div> [[Go to school.->entrance]] (link:"How to play the game?")[ How to play the game? 1.

You are standing in front of the kiosk. The hallway is dark and quiet.

(set: $janitor to true) The janitor says: "Hello, I am happy to see you. Long time no see. I have very bad news for you. The principal is in troubles! Somebody locked him in his office and we can't open the door. Can you help us? There are three different keys we need you to find for that: a bronze key, a silver key and a golden key. They are lost somewhere in the school. I have no idea where they are but maybe these clues can help you: 1. Some students like weird pranks. Maybe some of them stole a key and hid it among his or her stuff. 2. The principal loves to play basketball so maybe he lost one of the keys somewhere near the basketball playground. 3. There are some principal's friends among the teachers - maybe one of them has a key. That is all I can tell you. Good luck brave student and hopefully you can save the principal soon." <br> <div class='img-container'><img src='principal_imgs/janitor.png'></div> [[Go back to the front of the kiosk.->kiosk]]
