Which part of this excerpt from "Cryptozookeeper" by Robb Sherwin indicates the use of second-person point of view?The corner of this building has a window at ground level. There aren't any security signs upon it, or systems that seem to be in place, other than "windows make a lot of sound when shattered," which is a feature you get for free with windows, even the ones in this town sold door to door. You were under the impression that the place was recently constructed, but judging by the deep scratches along the exterior, the place has apparently been under siege by either a pack of ravenous, wild, roving bobcats or sentient handclaws.

Answer:

"You were under the impression that the place was recently constructed"

Step-by-step explanation:

Second-person means that the narrator is talking to the reader, so there will be terms such as "you" and "your"

Cryptozookeeper is an interactive fiction game written by American developer Robb Sherwin in 2011. Cryptozookeeper was written in the cross-platform language Hugo and runs on Windows, Macintosh OS-X, and Linux computers. Cryptozookeeper was released under a Creative Commons license and contains more than 12 hours of game play.

Cryptozookeeper combines both traditional elements of story-based Interactive Fiction while including fighting elements. In the game, players assume the character of William Ezekiel Vest and must splice together DNA samples to form a stable of fighting cryptids, all while solving puzzles in the off-kilter town of Christmas City.

Second person is a point of view ,how a story is told, where the narrator tells the story to another character using the word 'you.' The author could be talking to the audience. We can easily identify it by the use of 'you,' 'you're,' and 'your.

The sentence from this excerpt from "Cryptozookeeper" by Robb Sherwin that indicates the use of second-person point of view is:

You were under the impression that the place was recently constructed
