Crusoe

Shipwrecked and stranded on a remote island, with nothing but an empty
stomach, a bottle of granny's patent elixyr, the shorts he stands up
in, and thou! Thine aim is to return CRUSOE home again, preferably in
one piece and better off than when he arrived.
To move CRUSOE, ENTER N(orth), S(outh), E(ast) or W(est),
and he will step in the required direction if he can. By holding down
the ENTER key, he will keep on going until he encounters a problem.

Before taking to water and swimming, ENTER 1 (blue key), and likewise
ENTER 2 (red key) to get him walking again. As he reaches the edge of
the screen, the landscape will change automatically.

USEFUL WORDS - Pick, eat, drink, drop, find, wear, remove, insert,
extract, enter, explore, leave, examine, read, and several hundred
more which ye may discover if ye survive long enough.

SCREEN DISPLAY - Of current day of game, day of week, time of day,
wind strength and direction, weather, food, drink, vigour, supply of
elixyr and the number of items carried. The level of vigour is
determined by food, drink and the weight of the items carried, and
decreases with movement. If it falls low (on a scale of A to Z),
CRUSOE falls ill.

HINTS - Reading the following hints will help ye, but will also spoil
the challenge and enjoyment of discovering them for yourself. Only
resort to them if ye be desperate!

- The island was previously inhabited by William Bones (no relation to
Bilbo), whose remains and treasure are still there, together with
sundry papers, memoranda and letter ... coded of course.
- Crusoe may TAKE items he discovers, DROP them elsewhere and FIND them
in the same spot later. Unless he constructs a bag, he can only
transport nine items at a time.
- Finds include various foods, a parasol, a violin, doorknob, hammer,
nails, spade, a dead bird, a farthing, a bell, map, charts, bones,
buildings, carved stones, gold ring, and Man Friday is around some-
where with a message.
- Magenta trees bear fruit. Boots may cross thorny ground. Hygiene
prevents foot rot. Be careful with spiders, jellyfish, certain
fungi, and night-time escalation. Paper has a habit of disintegrating.
Don't talk in the water. Pneumonia and tightropes have something in
common. Sleep is a luxury. May good fortune smile on ye.
