- the text area should auto-scroll so that I can see the latest messages without manually scrolling down
- some responses were written in non-English, no idea what they say
- I got a game over after 14 turns of trying to guess what to type and that felt pretty random: maybe somehow tell the player that they are on a timer
- After several game overs, I looked at the description and walkthrough and saw that my "get plant" was expected to be "take plant": most text adventures allow several different variations of an action so that people do not have to guess the right word for an action (or I should've just read your description first, hehe)
Disclaimer: These are just my opinions, so a lot of it is very subjective.
I tried again and it does in fact auto-scroll, as long as I don't manually scroll up to check something that was written earlier. When I type something after that, it only scrolls a bit down and not all the way.
There were many scenarios where I typed something that seemed logical, but didn't work. I don't know how the code works, but perhaps you you could make the script ignore words like 'the' or 'a'..?
Additionally, whenever I click the LMB, it would register as sending a message, which quickly flooded the screen.
Overall though, really cool atmosphere! I really felt nervous when playing lol

Well it does autoscroll... What kind of browser are you using?
Text in other languages is one of the mechanics.

Thank you for playing!
This game is enjoyable, if not a little complex.

Yep there are these issues.
