Spaceship:The Officer Suitability Space Personality Questionnaire Questions
From TextAdventure
[edit] The Puzzle
- The basis of this puzzle is an ad hoc trigger when accessing an AI terminal in the game. It is a quick personality quiz, rather like the nauseous crap we're all subjected to in big organisations, and the idea is for the player to (I suggest) gain an item (a small plastic laminated officer certification card) to allow them to pass through a door marked "officers only". I would assume the captain has perhaps lost his card in the depressurisation and needs to get another one!
- The quiz can be taken as many times as the player likes, and it will soon become clear what answers will yield the best results!

[edit] Help!
We need some personality test-style questions based on classic SciFi themes, like this one:
An alien lifeform with acid for blood, large teeth and a hatred for spacefaring mammals has boarded your vessel. One by one it has murdered your fellow crew members in a variety of horrible ways leaving you alone in the last remaining space lifeboat. As you are about to launch you remember the shipboard spacegerbil is still alive.
Do you:
A) sacrifice the company owned spacegerbil (which is provided at great expense by the company for your mental wellbeing) and launch your escape raft leaving both it and the ship in the hands of an unstable and violent alien creature?
B) sneak back into the ship to rescue the company owned spacegerbil (which is provided at great expense by the company for your mental wellbeing), and escape in the space lifeboat with your mammalian companion subsequently contacting your line manager to report the alien invasion and allowing him or her time to arrange an armed company exobiological liaison officer to enter the ship to "negotiate" with the violent inhuman acid blooded beast?
C) return to the vessel, strip to your vest, and fight the alien singlehandedly with a self-built rifle and flamethrower to ensure the safe protection of your company owned vessel and spacegerbil (which is provided at great expense by the company for your mental wellbeing) ultimately causing minimal monetary impact on the company that has graciously provided the vessel for your safety and security and to encourage you to meet the profit targets of the company over the next financial year?
Your shipboard sensors have detected a large oblong anomaly orbiting near Saturn. You are curently tasked with delivering a large consignment of pyjamas to the permanently dark 3rd moon of the planet Slumberis in the Sirius B star system.
Do you:
A) ignore the critical need for nightshirts and lingerie, and ruin any chance of a quick delivery bonus (courtesy of a system put in at great expense by The Company for your mental and financial wellbeing) by exposing the ship to danger and approaching what is most likely to be an alien artifact that will suck you - and the very expensive Company provided shuttlecraft - through a hypnotically lit and possibly dangerous wormhole.
B) Ignore the artifact and continue towards Sirius B, delivering the nightwear well within agreed contractual deadlines, and subsequently contact your line manager to report the alien artifact, allowing him or her time to arrange an armed company exobiological liaison officer to travel to the artifact to "negotiate" with the alien species that constructed it?
C) Approach the artifact and attempt to contact the aliens and ascertain their willingness to also receive and endorse high quality nightwear and other goods from Company authorised trading vessels. Sign contract, and then continue to Sirius B, making sure that purchasers are aware that the pyjamas are now alien approved and therefore subject to a 15% uplift in the retail price.
