System Syzygy is a narrative puzzle game modelled on Andrew Plotkin's
[https://eblong.com/zarf/twilight/index.html System's Twilight]. As in that
game and the Cliff Johnson classics ''Fool's Errand'' and ''3 in Three'' which
inspired it, gameplay involves solving an assortment of ingenious logical and
verbal puzzles embedded within a storyline which is revealed piece by piece as
the puzzles are solved. The puzzles and story are entirely original to this
game.
