“Quest for the Holy Grail“
$17.95 from Softsync, Inc.
This game is an adventure game for all you kids and grown-ups, but you have to use your wits a little and remember the moves you make. They have to be very careful.
You start out as you land on a small island in your plane. Then you go in any direction you like, as North, East, South, and West, and sometimes Up and Down. There are some things you have to look out for. They are savages, apes, nazi soldiers, quicksand and some other things.
When you enter a subterranean tunnel you have to be careful because you can get killed by savages or by a disease called gangrene. You get that by cutting your arm on a rock of some kind.
In this game you have thing you can pick up like guns, machetes, fishing nets, gold coins and other things. Since you are in the jungle and you can be killed by a savage ape, I suggest you use your gun, but you can use your own judgement. Whenever you get the disease you should find something to heal it, but I’m not going to tell you. You will have to figure it out for yourself.
You will have special commands to use, such as:
GET (object), like a flash-light
USE (object), like you gun.
HELP
LIST, shows the objects you have. You can only carry five at a time.
If you find someone, type in QUERY, but you may get no reply.
To find the Holy Grail you must go in the tunnel and search for something, but I won’t tell you what it is. But I forgot to tell you one thing. When you get the Grail you must get back to your plane before the volcano blows up or you will die.
For all the readers of my column, I highly recommend this game for you and your family. In my next article I will write about “The Elusive Mr. Big”, which is an adventure game that comes with “Quest for the Holy Grail.”
Thank you,
