Welcome to Zork!
|
||||
|
||||
You are near a large underground labyrinth, which is reputed to
|
||||
contain vast quantities of treasure. Naturally, you wish to acquire
|
||||
some of it. In order to do so, you must of course remove it from the
|
||||
caverns; to receive full credit for it, you must deposit it safely in
|
||||
the trophy case in the living room.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to valuables, the cave contains various objects which
|
||||
may or may not be useful in your attempt to get rich; you may need
|
||||
sources of light, since caves are often dark, and weapons, since
|
||||
dungeons often have unfriendly things wandering about. Reading material
|
||||
is scattered around as well; some of it is rumoured to be useful.
|
||||
|
||||
To determine how successful you have been, there is a score kept.
|
||||
When you find a valuable object (i.e., pick it up), you receive a
|
||||
certain number of points, which depends on the difficulty of finding
|
||||
it. You receive extra points for transporting the treasure safely to
|
||||
the living room, and placing it in the trophy case. In addition,
|
||||
some particularly interesting rooms have a value associated with
|
||||
your entering them. The only penalty is for getting yourself killed,
|
||||
which you may do only twice.
|
||||
|
||||
Of special note is a thief (always carrying a large bag) who likes
|
||||
to wander around underground (he has never been seen by the light of
|
||||
day). He likes to take things; since he steals for pleasure rather than
|
||||
profit, and is sadistic, he only takes things which you have seen.
|
||||
Although he prefers valuables, sometimes in his haste he may take
|
||||
something which is worthless; from time to time, he examines his take
|
||||
and discards objects which he doesn't like. He may occasionally stop in
|
||||
a room you are visiting, but more often he just wanders through and rips
|
||||
you off (he is a skilled pickpocket).
|
||||
|
||||
Have Fun!
