SECTION III: INSTRUCTIONS
Insanity I and II are two-token text adventures. Your input must be
limited to either a verb (alone) or a verb/noun combination. Sample
verbs accepted by the games are given below.
Insanity III has a four-token parser. It translates your input into
the same two-token verb/noun combination, but takes out any "noise"
words such as "THE", "A", "AN", or "AT".
Verbs typically understood by the parsers are:
LOOK - This will give you a description of either
the surrounding area, or if this command
is given with a noun, the program will
describe the object. You may abbreviate
this "L".
EXAMINE - This will give a more detailed description
of an object either in the room or in
your possession. It can be abbreviated "X".
I - This is short for INVENTORY which takes
an inventory of all that you are carrying.
GO - Followed by a direction, this command will
move you to another area. You can also
just type in the direction (EAST, NORTH,
UP) or an abbreviation (E, N, U, etc.).
Sometimes you can talk to someone. They usually ask you yes/no
questions to which you may respond. This doesn't always mean that
yes and no are the only answers that will be understood, however.
