It's among my unfinished games.

How far have you gotten?

Not very far!!

In part 1 have managed to get into the cavern where the goblin was and the fire is - have seen the bit of wire in the fire, but have been unable to get it.

You can begin part 2...
My main obstacle is dying from the spider bite...

I think the first part is bugged. I can back into the cave, but I can't get back out. Also I couldn't go north from the cave.

I'll try Part 2.

How did you load Part 2? Side 2 of the game takes you to Part 3.
How did you get to the spider? How did you get out of the cave with the spear and rope?

I just loaded part 2 out of curiosity - usually they require a password or loaded data from part 1 - but no it just loaded.

I have not been able to get out of the cave with the fire, just like you.

I did not know there was a part 3??

In part 2 the spider bites you in the tent just outside the pyramid.

We must be playing different games. There is no no Part 2 that I can find, and side 2 loads part 3.

I did part 3, and there is no spider there.

Can you send me Part 2? In return I'll send you part 3, i.e. side 2.

There should also be a Part 4, but I don't know how to load it.

Hi Doreen

Well, I finally found out how to load part 2 - your press reset and then enter and it comes up.

Regarding the spider bite:

STEP ON SPIDER immediately.

Later on in the game I ran into problems. There appears to be a bug in Part 2 like in Part 1. I get into this endless feedback loop.

Anyway, I'll let you play along and see what you come up with.

I have played Part 3, and am now on to Part 4.

I got back to this game.
It seems as if Parts 1 and 2 have some glitches. Parts 3 and 4 are playable, though with reservations about Part 4.
