You are a famous hunter decending down into the caves of darkness, lair
|
|
of the famous man-eating WUMPUS. You are equiped with five bent
|
|
arrows, and all your senses. There are twenty caves connected by
|
|
tunnels, and there are two other kinds of hazards (three each):
|
|
A) Super-bats which if you stumble into their room will pick
|
|
you up and drop you in some random room in the network.
|
|
B) Pits, which are bottomless, and fatal to fall into.
|
|
Both are immovable.
|
|
If you end up in the same room as the WUMPUS, you lose. Normally
|
|
the WUMPUS does not move (having gorged himself upon a previous hunter).
|
|
Two things wake him up:
|
|
1) Walking into his room,
|
|
2) Shooting an arrow anywhere in the network.
|
|
If he wakes there is a 50-50 chance he will move into an adjoining cave.
|
|
He is too big to be picked up by bats, and has sucker feet,
|
|
so he doesn't fall into the pits. You can smell the WUMPUS from one or
|
|
two rooms away. You can hear bats one room away, and feel drafts (from
|
|
bottomless pits) from one room away (and taste the fear...).
|
|
To shoot type S (with no CR) instead of a move, and then specify
|
|
a legal path of length five for the arrow to follow. If you guess and
|
|
lose the arrow takes a random path. Paths can be truncated by typing CR
|
|
instead of a room number.
