Synopsis

Your eccentric uncle has passed away and left you his fortune. The only problem is that he has hidden the necessary papers somewhere on his estate, and, given his erratic personality, you have quite a task ahead of you...

Notes

Released by labels such as Central Solutions, and possibly Andy's own AH Software, this game later received a slightly improved engine (and a graphical update) when it was reworked into the Merlock the Mede release The Deeds of Glengarry Hall. The solution to the revised version is virtually identical.

One of the original "find hidden treasure in a large house" BASIC games. Vaguely imitates the style of the Phipps Associates adventures from 1983. Maybe too simple, but it's decently coded, which cannot be said of a lot of later Spectrum offerings written with the Quill.
