There are a lot of things about this that could be improved (in the BBC version, at least). One can be seen in the images - no text-wrapping! Also, all commands must be typed in full, and TAKE is understood but not GET. Another thing I didn't discover for a while is that LOOK gives you some completely new info about the location - which is printed *very* slowly, for some reason. The program does a lot of disk accesses, which also slows things down; and, amazingly, if you explore the disk on the BBC Micro games website, you find there are 30 files! Finally, you seem to have to do a lot of random wandering about without finding much to do, to start with at least.
