Hello.

It works. I just witnessed it working for someone else yesterday.

So, without looking at your code, I can safely say, "yes. You are doing something wrong."

If you post your code, though, we can look at it and help you. :)

Have you added the library to your game?

https://docs.textadventures.co.uk/quest/using_libraries.html


I also strongly (very strongly) recommend following along with the entire tutorial before trying to create your first text adventure.

https://docs.textadventures.co.uk/quest/tutorial/creating_a_simple_game.html


Also, capitalization and punctuation must be used properly in Quest's code.

I see that you are not using any of that properly here. It only matters here in the sense that it's more difficult for us to decipher what you are writing, but I am really only mentioning it because it seriously makes a difference in Quest.

Quest code is case-sensitive.

Did you do all the bullcrap stuff to add the library to your game?

You have to add the library; then save; then reload. It's easy to mess that up.

I've messed it up more than a handful of times. :)
