CREATURE VENTURE
Highlands Computer Software
Walk Through by Dorothy Millard (Apple Version)
Scenario
You have just inherited your Uncle Stashbuck's Mansions. You uncle was very eccentric and long
known to have a fascination for the occult and mainly Lucifer himself. You uncle learned the ways
of black magic and often would beckon forth the creatures of Hades, only to end up relinquishing his
soul to their dastardly demands and eventually his life. It is rumoured that your Uncle tried to
fight back with the help of a magic lamp he had but it was too late. On the night your uncle died
Lucifer sent forth a devil raider and stole most of the treasures of Stashbuck Mansion. The
treasure has been buried deep in the mansion and the only way you'll ever be able to enjoy your
inheritance is by ridding Stashbuck Mansion of the creatures and recover your treasure.
Notes:
1. Make sure you only rub the lamp three times or your will die.
2. You cannot rub the stump when carrying the flashlight. You will need the fireflies for light.
3. Do not open the mimic's box or your will die.
4. Red Herrings: Cup and Tack.
