The endgame start is a number that varies. The endgame start is 0;

Endgame is a scene. Endgame begins when the player is a pumpkin. [Endgame does not end.]

A pumpkin is a person[Damn I7's type system!] in Olympic Garden. The description is "Large. Round. Orange. Stem on top. Immobile."

Eternity is a region.

Olympic Garden is a room in Olympus. Macedonian Hillside is a room in Macedonia.

Ruined Villa is a room in Eternity. Pumpkin Patch is a room in Eternity. Atomic Wasteland is a room in Eternity. Ant-Man Kingdom is a room in Eternity. Deep Space is a room in Eternity. Black Hole is a room in Eternity.

Test endgame1 with "z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z".

Test endgame2 with "z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z/z".

Instead of doing anything other than arising, praying, going, waiting or looking when the player is a pumpkin, say "Pumpkins can't do anything that complicated."

Instead of going up when the player is a pumpkin:

if the player is not warned_about or the player is boinked, instead try going down;

try arising.

Instead of going when the player is a pumpkin:

say "Pumpkins can't do anything that complicated.";

stop the action.

Instead of looking when the player is a pumpkin, say "Although you lack sensory organs, you are still somehow dimly aware of your surroundings."
