THE PESACH ADVENTURE
Copyright (C) 1993 by Avi Gobbler Productions
To play The Pesach Adventure (TPA), type "pesach" at the DOS command line.
Detailed playing instructions and an introduction to interactive text
adventure games are available within the game itself.
DISCLAIMER
TPA is provided as-is, with no warranty of any sort, including warranty of
merchantability or fitness for use for the purposes described. The authors of
TPA take on no liability of any kind whatsoever, arising out of any cause
whatsoever, including negligence, for any damages, direct, indirect, special,
consequential, or of any other type whatsoever, or for loss of income or any
other claim arising from the use of the software. The user of the software
must make the final determination of the usability of the software, and takes
on any and all risks associated with the evaluation and/or use of the software.
Your usage of the software constitutes your acceptance of these conditions,
and of the license terms described below.
LICENSE TERMS
TPA is not public domain software and is not free software. If you use TPA for
any length of time, you are asked to donate at least $5.00 to your favorite
qualifying charity. A qualifying charity is any charity to which donations
would be tax-deductible under the current IRS codes.
Synagogues, churches, and religious schools are exempted from this requirement.
They've done enough tzedakah already.
Specifically excluded from this license are any individuals or groups who
promote anti-Semitism or neo-Nazism. May your names be dishonored
throughout the universe.
Christian groups who wish to teach about Passover are more than welcome to use
TPA for this purpose. We welcome inter-faith instruction of this type and
have ourselves often participated in it.
Shareware distributors may distribute TPA as long as they do not state in
any way that they are selling the program, which remains always the property
of the copyright owners, and that the portion of their charges allocated to
TPA does not exceed five dollars. Please do not ask us to send you free
upgrade disks. At two dollars per registration we can't afford it.
Individuals may redistribute this package in any manner they wish provided
that they charge no fee for doing so, and that the originally archived files
are all included, intact and unmodified. Upload like a meshuggah!
REGISTRATION
If you wish to have a printed walkthrough solution for TPA and a little more
about some of the teaching points in the game, please send a stamped self
addressed envelope with correct first class postage on it, along with two
dollars, to:
Avi Gobbler Productions
1825 N. Grandview Lane
Bismarck, ND 58501.
If you are an individual, you also must tell me to whom you contributed your
minimum $5.00 charitable donation. Synagogues, churches, and religious schools
need only write on their letterhead or have their affiliation printed on the
return envelope.
Your comments and questions are more than welcome, whether or not you register
your copy of TPA. While we cannot promise to respond within a particular time
period, we will do our best, as long as the volume of correspondence stays
reasonable. Please note, though, that if you wish a reply you MUST supply a
stamped self-addressed envelope for this purpose.
No phone calls, please. Our schedule doesn't permit asynchronous interrupts of
that nature.

News flash: beta testing, in addition to shaking out the usual bugs,
revealed that the game as it now stands is both too simple- for an adult
with adventure game experience- and too hard- for children with no such
experience.
A new, expanded version is in the works, with a much richer story line and
environment. It won't be done in time for Pesach 5753 but we hope to have
it out for Pesach 5754.
Your ideas and suggestions are most welcome. Please write, leave E-mail
on any Keshernet node, on the Wildnet or Rime game conferences, or on the
Exec-PC, Software Creations, or Xevious BBS systems. I do not have a
Compuserve, Genie, or Prodigy account.
