THE THIEF
by Corrupt Code
Walk Through by Dorothy Millard (Spectrum Version)
Notes
1. The children appear at random, when you meet them EXAMINE CHILDREN (note that one of them has a
racket).
2. Father Cash walks from the church to the pub and back again. When you meet him EXAMINE FATHER
CASH (he has a key around his neck).
3. Although the walk through refers to WAIT the game doesn't actually understand this. Just
input anything until the desired person or bus arrives.
4. Note the spelling of swap "SWOP."
