[[File:XANADU.png|thumb|300px|right|XANADU, as seen from inside XANADU]]'''{{todoPAGENAME}}''' is a supercomputer designed by [[Donald]], [[Lula]], and [[Joseph]]. It was created using tapes from Lula (previously heard in [[Limits & Demonstrations]].) The black mold that grows on the computer has changed its functioning beyond that of a normal computer program. It resides in the Bedquilt Caverns and is maintained by Donald and his research assistants. [[Amy]] (who studies human-computer interaction), [[Roberta]] (who studies fairy tales), [[Rick]] (who studies library sciences), [[Greg]] (who studies architecture), [[Andrew]] (who studies statistics), [[Mary Ann]] (who studies fine art), and [[Weaver]] (who studies mathematics) have all worked as Donald's research assistants at some point. Debugging, transcription, and speculation are the main tasks performed by the assistants. == Gameplay == When the player first encounters XANADU, it is not working properly and only produces garbled sounds. Donald believes this is because of the [[Hard Times boys]] tampering with the machine. When the player properly interacts with XANADU, they can play through a simulation similar to a text-based adventure game that involves typing in actions and directions to walk. The plot involves the creation of XANADU. Once this section is over, the player is presented with a workplace management simulation that involves hiring and assigning interns to tasks. == Design and inspiration == {{expand}}
