Sorry to TJ but I just found this completely by mistake.

# Yeah give it a second.
It says 404 then comes up with a flash game.

# I assure you
there is a game there, called "The Peasant's Quest". You start off near a knight blocking your way into a castle which, I assume, is your ultimate objective.

# YEAH THAT'S IT!
Why did I get it as a 404? I just kicked a horse and died.

They threw it onto their site when you type the address wrong in a search. Which is nice of them, and I don't meant that sarcastically.

# Well the Trogdor song is even on Guitar Hero 2, and to a lesser extent a Limozeen song is on Guitar Hero 80s.
So that's sort of a measure of how great it is*.

*may not be real measure

# Hahaha I've got to try this!
It's really hard and was such a surprise. I copied and pasted a link to a song wrong and got this.

Edit: I can't work out how to enter buildings.

# I got as far
as typing "open door" at the Inn only to find it was locked, before concluding that I really desperately need sleep and this game will soak all of it up. It's too long since I've played a text adventure like this.

# Why can some people see it but others can't?

# I've really got no idea
Unless everyone who can see it is using Firefox, it makes no sense to me. It's definitely there. It does say "Error 404: File not found." at the top but the game itself runs with no problems.


Edit: It also seems to be an easter egg for anyone who types an address wrongo n that site -- I tried changing the name of the MP3 you were looking for and it still came up. Nice one from the webmaster :)

I also think I'm going to bed and will play The Peasant's Quest over the weekend... Night B3ta.
