Robin Hood (Robin_Hood.txt)

ROBIN HOOD
T.S. Software
Spectrum 48

This is not a complicated game, except that there are random elements 
which cause some difficulty. The puzzles themselves are simple. John 
tends to wander away, though Tuck and the outlaws stay with you. You 
often need to tell John which direction to go. You need to get to the 
wine-cellars with John. If you are not wearing the beggar clothes, you 
will be captured. However, even when I had them, I was unable to find 
John again, so make sure he does not disappear with the objects you 
need.

This game recognizes only the adjectives, not the nouns.

INVENTORY (you have a sealed letter), OPEN SEALED, INVENTORY, READ 
OPENED (your father writes that you, Robin Hood, must help and free King 
Richard; you must pay attention to King Johann and the Sheriff of 
Nottingham), DROP OPENED LETTER, EXAMINE TRUNKS (you see something 
hidden), LOOK, TAKE WOODEN, N, E, N (you see a storm approaching and a
