Download Ballyhoo - DOS game

Come one, come all, to the saddest circus ever pixelated. In Ballyhoo, you're stuck in a depressing carnival trying to solve a kidnapping while dealing with clowns, carnies, and the worst text parser since your last therapy session. Classic Infocom, meaning great writing and an interface that hates you. But hey, if you’ve ever wanted to type "EXAMINE ELEPHANT" 30 times, this one’s for you.
