INTRODUCTION
You have heard stories since childhood about brave students
from your country who have taken the trip across the ocean to the
United States and enrolled in the English Language Institute of
the University of Delaware. And you heard rumors that most of
these students disappeared and were never heard from again.
Now you have finished your high school work and it's time to
prepare for your future. You have decided to pursue the goal
that has eluded so many international students -- a certificate
from the ELI of the University of Delaware. Your parents and
friends have warned you not to take the risk. They want you to
stay home and get a job. But you are a determined person and can
not resist a challenge. Your application to the ELI has been
accepted and you have received your F-1 visa. You've bought your
plane ticket and are ready to go.
Your study experience at the ELI will be filled with
dangers. You will encounter many hostile forces. But if you are
clever and keep your mind on your work, you might possibly
succeed. Your mission, now that you've decided to accept it, is
to show up at the ELI at the beginning of the September session,
attend classes, do the required work, and receive the valuable
ELI T-Shirt and certificate. It won't be easy. Good luck!

for more than three days you might be expelled from the ELI and
sent back home. And be careful not to lose your passport or

"Hi. This is your friendly author introducing you to the

way through the difficult situations and that you will succeed in
graduating with honors from the ELI. I would like to suggest
that you use some of the following commands -- EXAMINE, GET,
TAKE, SHOW or GIVE an object -- as you play the game. Remember
that some objects can be OPENed, UNLOCKed, PUSHed, PLAYed,
TURNed, and READ. Some objects you can WEAR or PUT ON. Hostile
(angry) people can be ATTACKed.
If you are carrying too many objects, the computer will tell
you that you are "not strong enough to add the item to your
current load." When this happens, you will have to DROP one or
more objects. Try to DROP items that you don't need anymore.
Sometimes giving the command HELP will be useful. You can
press the question mark key (?) to find a list of short cut keys.
Anyway, I hope that you are the one who receives an award
for solving this game. To receive your award please don't forget
to tell me the special name on the certificate you receive when
you graduate at the end of the game. This will be proof that you
have won the game."

"Today's big news continues to be about the new adventure
game created by Lowell Riethmuller at the ELI here in Newark.
Teachers report that many students are absent from class this
week. Everyone is at computer terminals trying to solve the
game. We tried to interview Mr. Riethmuller but he has been so
pressured by requests to give the game solution that he has gone
into hiding. Even Dr. Stevens, Director of the ELI, does not
know where he is. However we did manage to interview Chris
Wolfe, an ELI faculty colleague about this phenomenon that is
taking the ELI by storm."
QUESTION: "Mr. Wolfe, can you tell us something about this
mania for adventure games?"
ANSWER: "Yes. We have never seen anything like this before
at the ELI. Only three days ago Lowell released the ELI game.
Over fifty copies are circulating around the campus. Teachers
are unable to conduct normal classes because their students want
to only do the adventure game. So the faculty has decided to
devote the class time to strategies for solving the game."
Q: "What kind of strategies?"
A: "Students are forming study groups, like in law schools,
and are creating maps to find their way through the mazes.
They're making lists of weapons, key nouns, ways to enter rooms."
Q: "What do you think the outcome will be?"
A: "That's a good question. I am confident that somebody
will solve the game. After all, over 40 groups of students and
teachers are working practically day and night at the game. A
breakthrough has to come soon. We will be relieved when the game
is solved so that we can relax and unwind by doing things like
Christmas preparations for our families."
Q: "Do you have any idea where Mr. Riethmuller is hiding?"
A: "No. Nobody knows where he is. So we're all on our own
with the game."
"Thank you, Mr. Wolfe."

ROOM_DESCR 88 ; Final Essay
You are in your reading/writing class writing your final essay.
Even though you "killed" Jeanette earlier in the game, her ghost
has returned to give you the essay assignment. The topic is "How
to win adventure games." You are able to write a lot about this
topic because you are almost to the end of the ELI game and are
about to win. After your essay you must see Diane Baker in the
ELI office and give her your departure form before you're
permitted to take the Michigan Test. Her desk is to the south.

You are lost now. Because you wandered off into Mitchell Hall
you lost track of the other students and teachers. Around you
are Brown Lab, Hullihen Hall, and Memorial Hall. The sidewalk
goes off in different directions. You can't go north or
northeast because there is construction going on.
