Not Desert Island Discs. . .but a text-only adventure for the CPC464 by Steve Lucas Two months ago, I set sail to search for the mysterious island of Doctor Hein. Last night, after many hours of storms, the ship struck a rock and sank. Fortunately, I managed to find a piece of driftwood to hold on to and when I woke this morning, I find that I am floating only a few feet from shore. Please help me to find a boat and row to safety by giving me instructions in the form of tow word sentences such as GET ROPE, CLIMB HILL. etc. To move around, you just need to use a single letter N, S, E or W. Here is a list of some of the words I understand. Go, In, Out, Up, Down, North, South, East, West, Help, Swim, Row, Sail, Paddle, Climb, Eat, Drink, Inventory, Score, Drop, Leave, Put, Get, Take, Grab, Look, Examine, Search, Lift, Unlock, Wear, Read, Launch Program Notes - S%(x,y) holds map
