----------------------------------------
This is a minimal solution. You'll need to EXAMINE lots of things for this solution to make
sense.
The primarily two-word input makes this harder to play than it needs to be, as you end up with a lot
of guess-the-verb scenarios. There are a lot of different ways to die, but most of these can be
avoided if you examine things around you. There are also a few locations where you die after two or
three moves if you hang around. When you get a warning in UPPER CASE, get out of there straight
away. You can return later to reset the timer. If you are killed, you can learn from the experience
and undo the last move.
Optional (but significant) commands are shown in parentheses. You can omit these once you know what
to do.
