The parser is somewhat weak even for a '90s text adventure, but otherwise this is a fun little adventure game in the oldschool tradition.
To the developer - there is a small but thriving interactive fiction community, it might be worth looking up the ifdb etc for some support/feedback, if you want to make more games like this.

Thanks for your feedback. You're right, the parser doesn't compare to Zork, but at least it's some steps beyond "two words only". If I were to write new IF games now, I'd go for a TADS-like parser.

I had a hard time finding the kitchen, since there's no mention of a southern exit in the dining room! By the way, I have no idea what to do with the sphere
Thanks for pointing out a major oversight. There was in fact no mention of a south exit from the dining room. I've fixed this now.

I also don't know what to do with the sphere
Think like Alladin.

Apparently "I don't know how to eat"
You do now. I've added an "eat" verb and appropriate flavor texts for things that might seem edible to the intrepid adventurer.
