legion adventure

#1 Post by terri »

BBC game. I think available at Stairway to Hell.

I am trying this one now. While not a great game, it is playable. It should not be too challenging for some.

There are several places where you die. But in most, you need an object, or to do something, to get you past the obstacle. This is not always clear though. In-game hints are provided (e.g. jokes, some anagrams, a verb to use, etc.). These often get you more points, though may not be needed to solve the game.

There is one places where I seem to be stuck:
at the tunnel, where I should be able to dig but cannot I haven't anything to dig with. I have a parcel, the poison, and one of the towels with me.

EXAMINE is not recognized as a verb.

I believe some objects may be red herrings.

The belt can only be used, i.e. worn, in one location.

One verb is particularly tricky, but I am sure there are some who would understand the reason for this.

I have 82 points.

Any players?

At last I had some time to look at this game. I made a map of all 46 locations (I've uploaded it). Where exactly are you stuck ?

I see you've uploaded the solution too, so I guess I can figure out where I am stuck.
