Good for you. Fuck the man.

I see you have Javascript disabled. Good for you.
Can't say I blame you. Most websites these days try to get you to
download two megs of tracking javascript to show you 3kb of text.
It's total bullshit and I'm 100% behind your decision to disable it.

However, this is a game website, and it's not gonna work without JS
enabled. All of our Javascript weighs in at under 100kb, and none of
it is for ads, creepy cursor tracking, or any of that dodgy bullshit
- it's all for convenient interface stuff. View the source if you
don't believe me.

I hope you'll consider enabling Javascript and playing my game.

Thanks!

Improbable Island is an old-school text adventure that's been on the
internet and under constant development since dial-up days. When
something's been kept alive for that long, it can either be a
polished masterpiece with nothing unnecessary added, or it can be a
huge, sprawling clattering kaleidoscope of interlocking cogs and
gears that leaps out at unsuspecting newbies and swallows them whole
into its oily, confusing mess. Guess which way we went.

* Confusing storyline
Quantum physics, robots, time travel, love, death, lions in disguise,
if you don't understand a fucking word of it then consider yourself
lucky. This shit is absolutely labyrithine and it'll suck you in and
grind your brain into a fine paste. One day you'll try to explain it
to someone and ten minutes in they'll just get up and leave.

* Annoyingly addictive gameplay
Dull but weirdly comforting at first, but scratch the surface and
you'll find impenetrable and frustrating layers of interlocking
complexity that will make "dull but weirdly comforting" seem like
heaven itself. A hacked-together collection of gameplay styles from
retro to ultramodern, each interacting with the other in increasingly
unlikely ways, assembled over the course of decades by a professional
sadist.

* Constant updates
We'll delete the things you love and replace them with confusing
modern shit to make you feel old.

* Player-owned Places
Build your own shrine to your awful obsessions and then bring it to
life with drag-and-drop programming. Some Places are more complex and
fascinating than anything the actual game programmer could come up
with, others are absolutely horrendous, some are both. Figuring out
which is which is part of the alleged "fun."

* Welcoming community
Warm, comforting, and occasionally horrifying, our roleplaying and
chat community is thousands strong and only a little bit culty. Some
of these poor sods have been stuck in this dump for ten years or
more, writing doorstop-novel's worth of plot.

I can't believe I'm typing this, but enough weirdos think this game
is fun that we've never been quiet since the late 2000's; 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week, we haven't been empty for even one second in over
a decade. That's fucked.

Anyway, click here if even after reading all that shit you absolutely
insist on carrying on with this foolishness.
