hmmm agt is adventure gaming toolkit. in cosmoserve you are a programmer trying to make your living and you are also a plumber. Anyway you need to get this program to a client by 8 in the morning the next day. Firstly though you need to find your password. On finding said thing you log on only to find the system is hacked, a virus has taken over the net and will slowly eat your system into the ground. on top of that you need to find how to fix your program, you are hungry and if you don't get something done you will be quite broke by morning. hmmm did I mention you could go to jail to, probably die in some places, etc. in short you are rather a mess. not that you actually have much time to think about this, as you need to contend with a hacker and a sysop gone insanely nuts pluss well the virus you actually do face it. and well if you don't speak to a sertain someone before you get that sorted you die. I think you get the picture. it was in one of the audyssey issues.
