Graphics by Marco Innocenti were added in 2018. This was still release 1, but with a serial number of 180323. This version can be played online at textadventures.co.uk.

It was rewritten using Adventuron in 2021, again using the graphics by Marco Innocenti. The Adventuron version can be played online at itch.io.
