Published in 1988 by Zenobi Software, Behind Closed Doors 2 is the second in a
series of four extremely short interactive fiction adventures. The aim in this
game is to find a way of unlocking the door to the hut at the bottom of the
garden. As with the original this is again a one-room only adventure, although
the puzzles that take place are slightly more complex this time around.
