By Paul Reiche, Erol Otus
For Atari 400/800/XL/XE

----------------------------------------
This is a minimal solution. You'll need to EXAMINE lots of things for this solution to make
sense.
Some optional (but significant) commands are shown in parentheses. These can be omitted once you
know what to do.
WARNING: As this is a protoype, it is very buggy and may lock up or crash unexpectedly on a regular
basis. As there is no SAVE, RESTORE or UNDO, you might want to play it in an emulator and use the
emulator's save state or save snapshot fairly frequently.
(MOVE WEST WINE RACK) (you find some graffiti)
(READ GRAFFITI) (there are three messages that don't appear to be used in game)
(EXAMINE REFUSE) (a lizard appears)
(GET LIZARD) (friendly lizard gives advice at random, but none can be used)
GET FULL BOTTLE
MOVE EAST RACK (you expose a tunnel)
E
N
EXAMINE BOULDERS (you find some poison mushrooms)
GET MUSHROOMS
PUT MUSHROOMS IN FULL BOTTLE (they dissolve in wine, it is now poisoned)

S
S
HIT OGRE (he wakes up and he ain't happy, he scoffs down poisoned wine and dies)

(E) (optionally, go E again for the wrong ending)
SLEEP
***THE END***
