Map

The main difficulty in this game is the lack of explicit exits in most locations. Fortunately, that's a great excuse for me to draw a map.

Walkthrough

Mountain

> take letter. x it. ("Go to the Green Mountains.")

> e.

Path

There's not much to do in this game but visit everywhere and look at what little is implemented, so forgive me, but we're going to go the wrong way first. You can just walk to the winning location, but if you do that, you miss half the game!

> w.

Stream

> take second letter. x it. (Go west.)

> w. u.

Large House

You can't wear either the armor or the gloves.

> take armor. x armor.

> take gloves. x gloves.

> n.

Goblin Lair

The goblins aren't implemented.

> e. s. n.

Guest Room

The bed and lamp aren't implemented.

> s. w. e.

Bedroom

> take third letter. x it.

> w. ne. w. w.

Muddy Swamp

> se. (If you insist.)

*** The End ***

> undo

That was a losing ending. Those letters lied to us. Head back to the path:

> e. s. d. e. e.

Path

Let's go the right way this time:

> d. n.

Small Room

> take all. x lantern. x next letter.

> w.

Fire

This is just a dead end. The fire is not implemented.

> e. n.

Burial Ground

> take map. x map. (So unhelpful.)

> e. u. e.

Long Circle Path

> w.

You reach the Green Mountain. Yay.

*** The End ***

Extras

Characters

There are no other characters in this game but the player-character. However, for completeness:

• A bird is heard chirping from the Path.
• Goblins are in the Goblin Lair.
• Somebody wrote all those letters for you to find.

Endings

• The End
• if you go southeast from the Muddy Swamp. This is a losing ending. I assume you drown in the swamp, but the game doesn't tell you what happens.
• The End
• if you go west from the Long Circle Path. This is a winning ending. You reach the Green Mountain which is important for some reason.

Inventory

All of your possible inventory is useless, and all the letters but the first one are lies. You don't need any of this stuff.

• a letter. It's at Mountain.
• Read it; it says: "Go to the Green Mountains".
• a Lantern. It's in Small Room.
• You can't turn it on.
• a Second Letter. It's at Stream.
• Read it. It tells you to continue west and death lies in other directions.
• an Armor. It is at Large House.
• You cannot wear the armor.
• a Gloves. It is at Large House.
• You cannot wear the gloves.
• a third letter. It is in Bedroom.
• Read it. It tells you to continue to the murky waters.
• a next Letter. It's in Small Room.
• Read it. It tells you that you've gone the wrong way.
• a Map. It's at Burial Ground.
• Read it. It doesn't tell you anything useful.
