I guess you could call it an adventure game? Yeah, the ending was a bit unexpected, but then again so was everything else :D I enjoyed it a lot, and it reminded me how with early games the imagination did most of the work.

Though I found the sudden restart pointless, and I think it took away from the ending a little. Unless the point of course was that you crash, and find yourself in a room with a fire that's nearly gone out... [kinda like that book of the guy who rhymes with Peevin' Ping haha]
