!Pyramid - Instructions
=======================
First: The Copyright Bits
-------------------------
This is a game written using V1.300 of Trellis - the adventure
interpreter from Soft Rock Software. As yet, V1.300 has not
been released.
Both Trellis and !Pyramid are (c)copyright 1991-1996 Soft Rock
Software. However, !Pyramid itself may be distributed in the
manner of public domain software provided it is not altered or
tampered with in any way. It is made available in this way to
provide a demonstration of what can be done using the latest
version of Trellis.
Playing !Pyramid
----------------
The game is a fairly straightforward text/graphic adventure.
When first loaded, you are presented with a simple title
screen. Press <Space> to move onto the game.
In this game, you are imprisoned inside a pyramid, and must
find out how to escape. As I said - its straightforward :-)
You play the game by entering simple one or two word commands
such as NORTH or TAKE DIAMOND. In some cases you may need to
type in longer sentences, such as PUT DIAMOND ON PEDESTAL.
You can't use abbreviations, and you can't enter more than
one command at a time.
Help is available through th use of the HELP command. If you
want help about a specific object, you can try HELP OBJECT
(eg HELP DIAMOND). The software will only give help on an
object you can see.
Trellis
-------
Trellis version 1.300 is not yet available. There are still
a couple of minor bugs to iron out, and some things I want
to improve. It'll probably become V1.310 before it is
released.
The currently available version is 1.210, which uses draw
files for graphics. This version costs 8.99 including
postage and can be ordered from:-
