My reaction was “Huh?” and it still is, so I went to look…
The notes file says:
“The Ugly Duckling.quest” story file runs in the Quest for Windows Desktop interpreter program […]
This interactive version of Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Ugly Duckling” is simply a new way to read the classic fairy tale.
As the reader, you will advance the story by clicking on the appropriate verb button of the appropriate object in the “Places and Objects” pane on the right side of the screen.
How will you know which object and which verb button are “appropriate”? Also on the right side of the screen, you will see a “Status” pane that always provides a hint about which object should receive the “next interaction”.
When you click on the correct verb button, another portion of the fairy tale appears.
I didn’t try running the thing, but it doesn’t sound like a sophisticated conversion.
The conversion does more than turn pages for you.
Moreover, the source code is available so interactive fiction programmers can make any desired changes.
