Keep - The fact that the game has been discussed by notable text adventure authors and writers including Jon Ingold and Emily Short certainly suggests that the work is noteworthy. It also seems to have been discussed by Nick Montfort at the 2009 Digital Arts and Culture Conference (citation not currently in the article). I'm not as familiar with Ingold, but Short and Montfort are definitely big-name established experts in their field and they've been published in numerous third party RSes. So I think several of the sources here can probably be considered reliable under WP:SPS. This game might not be as notable as some of the blockbuster titles coming out for modern genres, but I'm inclined to err on the side of inclusion due to the attention it seems to have received from these big names in the field. -Thibbs (talk) 19:26, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
