Welcome to Jester's Revamped Not Entirely Historically Accurate American Colonial Survival Text-Based Sim, or JRNEHAACSTBS.
It's 1610 in the settlement of Jamestown, and things are pretty shit. You are William James, the God-fearing son of an English craftsman, and 2 years ago you were exiled to the American colonies as punishment for claiming that the King probably had a small dick. After arriving, you met and immediately married a woman named Elizabeth, who over the next 2 years gave birth to 24 children, for which she was tried as a witch and burned at the stake. You work a stupid job as a grain farmer or something, earning only enough to feed yourself and 1 of your 24 children a day.
One hot summer day, as your children are reading the Bible, (the only book you own), you make your way outside, possibly in search of adventure. Do you...
A) Explore the wilderness surrounding Jamestown
B) Journey to the nearest Indian settlement
C) Do your actual job so you can feed your many children like a nerd
D) Travel to the market in pursuit of goods or women

C) but then eat the children too.

You begin your daily soul-shattering labor in the hot Virginia sun, and soon develop heatstroke. As your late father once told you, "A man who does not finish the job he starts is no man," so you continue to work and quickly die. Your children look sadly at your body for all of 30 seconds, then dig a crude grave and bury you in it. They construct a wooden cross tombstone inscribed "Pa," and proceed to all starve to death.
