diamonds), GET DIAMONDS, E, N, N (dead end), DIG (you find some pieces of silver), DROP SHOVEL, GET

“Congratulations!!! You have found all of Billy McCusky’s treasure. Good-bye and good luck”
Notes:
There are lots of useless items in the game, including:
Bottle of whisky, money, carrot, jar of oil (for refilling the lamp if you take too much time in the
mine), cartridges and beans (for escaping the jail).
If you steal the wad of money, you are arrested, and you need to EAT BEANS then WAIT. If you WAIT
elsewhere, the game will crash.
