Cavern's City - part 4
Hints by Alex Dijkstra for the pc
Although in every game the rooms are connected to the same locations, the directions between them
change every game. Best thing to do is print the map and write your directions on it. Replace your
directions with the ones in the below solution.
Below an example solution of how to solve the game without dying from starvation. It is almost
impossible to do this especially when you get robbed in between. Save the game a lot, but do it with
Dosbox because when you save in the game itself it also costs you one turn.
