LOST GOLD v1.55
The Search For The Lost Dutchman Gold Mine
A True To Life Interactive Adventure
1. There are items or weapons that can be effective when you shoot or
fire them, as well as when you throw them at an attacking
creature, but be careful, those that fire or shoot have a limited
number of shots, depending on the ammunition available. An Item or
Weapon that is thrown at a creature is no longer in your possession
and must be retrieved before it can be used again.
2. Read everything carefully! Help is provided in certain rooms. Type
<HELP> or <H> to see if any additional text is available.
3. There is a limit to the number of items you can carry with you.
Each item that is carryable or wearable has a specific weight and
size. You CANNOT carry any more than that limit, you must drop
something(s) in order to be able to pick up the new item, or you
cannot put items in something if the items are to large in size to
fit.
4. A hostile creature will block all visible exits until killed.
5. Save your position often.
