CRASH LANDING

Spectrum 48
Your spaceship has crashed on an unknown planet. You want to find
civilization and get the radio to contact the Space Base.
You can type DICT for instructions and a list of verbs.
You can finish without maximum points.
This is a good, though not great game.
Hints:
There are many red herrings: the acorn, metal, torch, shield, bottle, coins,
money, newspaper.
You need the card more than once, so retrieve it.
You can TELEPORT where you find the key.
Buying the newspaper, does not add any points, but it is a nice touch. You
need local money to buy it.
