Synopsis

Plot

Shipwrecked on a hostile island, you must get a message to someone before the island's volcano explodes, without offending the natives!

Notes

This was adventure #3 in the SoftSide Adventure Series (formerly SoftSide Adventure of the Month Club). It was published as a bonus on SoftSide CV and DV (the cassette and disk versions) with the instructions in SoftSide magazine, issue 40, vol. 6, no. 7, April 1983, p. 73 and encoded hints in SoftSide Selections, issue 41, vol. 6, no. 8, June 1983, p. 21 (Atari version).

This is called 'Volcano Island Adventure' in the title screens of the instructions and the game itself and 'Volcano Island' in SoftSide, SoftSide Selections, the body of the instructions and the body of the game itself. Either could be considered the correct title.
