Notes

Appeared as a type-in listing in Color Computer Magazine, Feb 1984, Vol 1 No. 12, pp.103-129.

The was the second runner up in the BASIC category of the magazine's Summer Programming Project competition.

Interesting hybrid of text adventure 2-word parser and the game of "Clue." 2-5 players who take turns being in control of the computer. Instructions recommend not allowing players to view the screen while others play.

Jim Gerrie has produced a version of the game for TRS-80 MC-10.
