Words are inadequate

Yeah, I'd say the problem with GET LAMP (and this is the director speaking) is that the weight of being the first and possibly last text adventure documentary means that I wanted to get to a lot of subjects and bring them together, not just in a linear narrative, but also in one that at least was watchable and somewhat random access. This is not the kind of documentary that is usually made.

As a result of its sharp focus, Infocom is more of a traditional documentary, with a beginning, middle, and end, and so people might enjoy that one. But if GET LAMP had just been about Infocom, what a tragedy that would have been.
