Great first adventure! Only took a couple hours to get through the RNG. DAMN those bees. Managed to die a bunch of different ways!
Here's a BBC Micro port of the TRS-80 BASIC version of Adventureland as published in SoftSide magazine in 1980:

Surprisingly tricky and fun to play despite its minimal design and lack of theme (it had to fit into a 16k TRS-80 Model I). The much later Spectrum version was coded by Brian Howarth, as usual for Adventure International UK ports.
