Notes:
-You can't drop the slippers, clothes and the sword.
-If you enter the northeast section of the TransGalaxian MegaHype Trading co. (northeast on the map)
you can only leave if you give the flannel to the supervisor. However you don't need to enter
these locations to solve the game.
-The game has two minor bugs:
*You should not be able to visit the location with the critics twice. The game should end.
*You should only be able to pass the picket line if you have the badge.
I've uploaded a fixed version to the CASA website. The following three lines were changed:
11420 IFF(35)=1THEN11440
11430 PRINT"Don't come back or the TV Critics will creep out of their hiding places. This
could be Permanently Unpleasant!":F(35)=1:RETURN
12140 PRINT"They won't let a blacklegging scab likeyou through the picket
line.":F=1:X=XX:Y=YY:RETURN
