Background
----------
There's an old Exerian proverb: "Zxta'tch df'rtg gt-yqi, Zxta'tch'tch df'pta
na-grl!" No one knows what it means, but everyone agrees that
(a) it sounds more like Klingon
(b) it's probably quite profound
Exactly what this has to do with you, I can't say. What I can say, however,
is that you have been held captive in the Exerian Prison Caves for commiting
a very serious crime. A very serious crime indeed:-
You wore brown shoes and blue trousers!
Your cries of innocence have gone unheard, so as a last ditch attempt at
freedom, you have decided to try to escape....
Instructions
------------
Each of the 5 caves in the demo prison is patrolled by three guards, who
really are quite stupid - at first, even if they see you, they won't give
chase! You must avoid them, though, because as well as no intelligence, they
also have no niceness!
The trick to escaping, as well as avoiding the guards, is to make your way to
the exit. To do this, collect everything - it's as simple as that. (Honest!)
Well, okay, it's not quite that simple. Once you have collected all the
candles, the yellow rocks will become books, collect the books and the red
rocks will turn into...., and so on. Once you have just keys remaining, the
guards will turn really nasty and start to chase you - so collect those keys
and get out fast!
