Caves may vary, +however, depending on options specified when starting the game. + +The game has the following hazards for intrepid adventurers to wind their +way through: + + Pits -- If you fall into one of the bottomless pits, you find yourself + slung back out on the far side of the Earth and in very poor + shape to continue your quest since you're dead. + + Bats -- As with any other cave, the Wumpus cave has bats in residence. + These are a bit more potent, however, and if you stumble into + one of their rooms they will rush up and carry you elsewhere in + the cave. + + Wumpus -- If you happen to walk into the room the Wumpus is in you'll find + that he has quite an appetite for young adventurous humans! Not + recommended. + +The Wumpus, by the way, is not bothered by the hazards since he has sucker +feet and is too big for a bat to lift. If you try to shoot him and miss, +there's also a chance that he'll up and move himself into another cave, +though by nature the Wumpus is a sedentary creature. + +Each turn you may either move or shoot a crooked arrow. Moving is done +simply by specifying "m" for move and the number of the room that you'd +like to move down a tunnel towards. Shooting is done similarly; indicate +that you'd like to shoot one of your magic arrows with an "s" for shoot, +then list a set of connected room numbers through which the deadly shaft +should fly! + +If your path for the arrow is incorrect, however, it will flail about in +the room it can't understand and randomly pick a tunnel to continue +through. You might just end up shooting yourself in the foot if you're +not careful! On the other hand, if you shoot the Wumpus you've WON! + +Good luck. + |
