The Impossible Bottle
Yikes! It seems I won the 26th Annual Interactive Fiction Competition! That is to say, The Impossible Bottle got a tied 1st place, which is still top-two out of 103 games.
Housework is only as dull as your imagination. Join Emma, six years old, on a playful adventure of peculiar proportions.
Merciful puzzlefest. Parser or point-and-click, as you please. Web (including mobile) or Z-machine.

When playing online, a transcript will be logged on the server. This helps me catch bugs and improve things.
If you are truly stuck, even after trying the built-in “hint” command, there is a walkthrough.

I'm not so sure this is a bug...I suspect Nolan knows how to find his way back ;)
