Once you can open the treasure chest, you can get the treasure. Then you have to make it back to the first room to win.
Of course, I think it mentioned that in the instructions.
I don't think there's a key missing, as there's 6 keys. It's just offset by one when putting the key in the opened ...

Re: Adventures for Tangerine Microtan 65
I don't believe it's possible to complete The 6 Keys of Tangrin . The author says, "This game is fiendishly difficult to get through so be prepared for many frustrating hours of play!"
It has 30 rooms and 30 objects. The connections between rooms are generated randomly, so you need to spend a lot ...

Re: Adventures for Tangerine Microtan 65
I've also typed it in for the Microtan 65, complete with all the original typos. I finished the typing on 18 Dec 2018 and finished checking it on 19 Dec 2018, but didn't have time to let everyone know, as I was going away that afternoon and had no Internet or phone reception for a week. It's in a ...

Re: Adventures for Tangerine Microtan 65
Sounds like something to do after Christmas, although I've already got a very long To-Do list for CASA-related stuff.
When I tried to play The Sceptre of Hamloth with Geoff Macdonald's emulator, I could only type one or two commands, then the emulator stopped responding to any keyboard input. This ...

Re: Who or what is "GAC user"?
Thanks Strident. This is sort of what I suspected. I'm starting to think that "GAC User" is just nonsense and the ignorant are blindly copying bad information from other sites without checking its validity. Don't you love the internet? If anyone can shed any further light on this, it sure would be ...

Re: Adventures for Tangerine Microtan 65
Have you entered The 6 Keys of Tangrin? If so, any chance of getting a memory dump to save me typing it in? I was wary about starting on this because of the lock-up problem.

Who or what is "GAC user"?
The CASA database has two adventures published by "GAC user", but who or what is GAC user? It sounds like a magazine published by a GAC users' group. An internet search unveiled nothing related to a user group or a magazine or a company, but it did uncover four other adventures with some sort of ...

Re: Genre Suggestions
You're right. I've played too many adventures and they all start to blend together after 40 years.I believe the T-remover was actually in Leather Goddesses Of Phobos.

Adventures for Tangerine Microtan 65
The CASA web site lists 3 adventures for the Tangerine Microtan 65. These are:
The 6 Keys of Tangrin by Geoff M Phillips
This is a BASIC listing in Tansoft Gazette , issue 1, October/November 1981, pp. 18–20. Does anyone have a copy of this? I found a pdf of the magazine, but I would have to work ...

Re: Genre Suggestions
The all-time classic for wordplay is Ad Verbum by Nick Montfort. I know there are others, but none come to mind at the moment.
For individual puzzles, the most memorable for me is the tea remover (or T-remover?) in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy , where using it turned the rabbit into a rabbi ...

Look at quite a few and pick the best and clearest elements of each one. Here's a few suggestions:

Re: A question for everyone who has recently submitted information to CASA
It's erratic. Sometimes I get it, sometimes I don't. I'm uploading lots of screen grabs at the moment, so I'll take note and let you know some of the pages (and circumstances) that still give the error.

Incidentally, this thread seems to have been sidetracked by the Speed-IF haters. If you want to have one genre for each of the English annual IF competitions, then feel free, but how many genres will there be in 100 years time? There's already 19 and 5 years haven't been added yet! The number of ...

Is this the page you're looking for? In the opening paragraphs, Jacob says, "So my hope is to create a better site that will remain a repository for walkthroughs etc., but will also encompass game ratings, reviews, recommendations and more." The latter hasn't been terribly successful, as the CASA ...
