The Yawn c64 (2006)

#1 Post by Alex » Sun Feb 15, 2015 12:17 am

Did anyone ever try to solve the The Yawn?

The game was written by Roland. He was one of the six contestants of the 2006 1k minigame contest. There are 64 locations inside the game. I've uploaded a map . The game only knows a few commands N, S, E, W, L and one more command which the author does not want to tell.

According to the author the game can be solved by giving one specific command in one specific location. According to the author the document file which comes with the program gives you a hint.

Normally you die after 32 turns. However, the author explained, if you load the game and you type list you see the following line:

32 sys2719

If you type NEW and re-enter the line as follows:

255 SYS2719

You'll have 255 turns before you die. (The line number is the number of turns you have)

I tried several things, but did not have any success. Anyone any idea?
