Marie Celeste Adventure (Walrus Computing)
* You can find objects to build a telescope, but this is a completely unnecessary object. While
you can LOOK THROUGH it on the plank, you can also find what is there by typing EXAMINE UNDER PLANK.
The object you find is also unnecessary. So is the object beyond it, but beware – you are likely
to die.
* If fact there are many "red herrings": the hat, cutlass, silver slippery key, anvil,
spider (dead or alive), plug, kipper, cork, and spoon. The real red herring is needed.
* Typing HELP in several locations gives you good, specific clues.
* Eating food is not required, so keep what you find.
* In order to get maximum points, you need to use specific vocabulary (i.e. verbs) in certain
locations. One is to get the Yale key – carry an object that you can also use as a verb. Another
is at the snakes. OPEN BIRDCAGE doesn't work but DROP BIRDCAGE or DROP (the object you have
caught in it ) does. Another is at the chart room – PUSH EAST here – but this object is
unnecessary.
* To give an object to someone, type GIVE <person, etc.)> <object>.
* To open doors, TURN <colour> KEY.
