I am currently in the early days of learning Python and I am attempting to make a very basic text adventure game and believe I have indented and formatted the code correctly however it seems whatever text I input into the game it just follows the same route no matter what? Is there anything you can see which is wrong with my code? Many thanks

One is encased in a sort of viscous yellow bile with a crest portraying a proud phoenix. Another is adorned with a sort of blue glowing crystal, with a small engraved serpent at the bottom of the door. The last door is easily the most unusual of the three, with particuarly fine embellishments adorning its entire surface area, the stand-out feature is the intricately designed golden handle which constrasts the rest of the purple velvet exterior magnificently.

I have tried to repeatedly make sure the indentations are all correct and all of the if-elif-else statements are nested correctly and I still can’t understand where the problem is arising from.
