Looks like the Great Firewall or something like it is preventing you from completely loading www.skritter.com because it is hosted on Google App Engine, which is periodically blocked. Try instead our mirror:

legacy.skritter.cn

This might also be caused by an internet filter, such as SafeEyes. If you have such a filter installed, try adding appspot.com to the list of allowed domains.

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

My secret hope is this means that Zork has been translated into Chinese and embedded in Skritter.

A Zork reference. omg. I miss my childhood.

I hope you have enough fuel for your lantern.

Zork is a text-based adventure game, and that's one of its best-known lines. There are lots of versions online these days, if you ever want to try it.
