STARTING AN ADVENTURE
With ADVENTURE CREATOR.
you can create your own computer
adventure game for others to play
or have the computer create an
adventure for you to solve. Set up
a complex maze of interconnecting
rooms. Place treasures. traps and
creatures in each room. Choose a
goal for your game and then save
your adventure to either disk or
cassette for future play.
The Adventure Menu will appear
following the title screen. To make
a menu selection. use the joystick
to move the cursor to the option of
your choice and press the joystick
button.

Choose the AUTO option to play
a sample game created by the com-
puter. A maze of rooms. treasures
and creatures will automatically be
generated with a goal for you to
overcome. The computer will create
a new game each time you choose
the AUTO option. This is a good
way to get acquainted with adven-
turing. The games you create your-
self. however. can be much more
complex than those created using
the AUTO mode.
After choosing AUTO you will
see the prompt: 'BEGINNER OR
ADVANCED?' Press the

a 'Beginning' level adventure or
the

key if you feel ready for the
'Advanced' level. Beware. in the
advanced game you'lI find dark
rooms. faster moving creatures.
more traps and fewer tools. You'll
also start the game at a lower
energy level.
NOTE: You may PLAY. SAVE or EDIT
an AUTO-adventure just as you
would the adventures you'll create
yourself.
