-> NOTE: THE WIZARD MAY APPEAR ONCE AND
A WHILE AND CAST A SPELL ON YOU,
DON'T WORRY. THE SPELL WILL WEAR OFF
AFTER A WHILE. IF YOU CAN'T DO
ANYTHING ELSE, JUST WAIT IT OUT.
IT WOULD BE WISE TO SAVE THE GAME
PERIODICALLY, AS A PRECAUTION IN
IN CASE YOU MAKE A MISTAKE.
"TAKE ALL", [S,S,S,SW,S], "LIGHT LAMP",
[SE], "ENTER GAZEBO", "TAKE TEAPOT",
"EXIT", [N,NE], "FILL TEAPOT", [S,SE],
[S,S,W]
-> YOU ARE NOW IN THE CAROUSEL ROOM.
BECAUSE OF ITS RAPID SPINNING, YOU
ARE DISORIENTED IN DIRECTION. YOU
ARE TRYING TO GET TO THE RIDDLE ROOM
WHICH LIES TO THE SE, BUT YOU MIGHT
END UP SOMEWHERE ELSE. JUST MAKE
YOUR WAY BACK TO THE CAROUSEL ROOM
AND KEEP TRYING UNTIL YOU GET THERE.
WHEN YOU GET TO THE RIDDLE ROOM, YOU
WILL NEED TO SOLVE THE RIDDLE BEFORE
YOU CAN GET TO THE PEARL ROOM. JUST
SAY "A WELL", WHICH IS THE ANSWER
TO THE RIDDLE.
[EAST], "TAKE PEARLS", [EAST], "GET
INTO BUCKET", "POUR WATER", "GET OUT",
[EAST], "TAKE RED, BLUE, AND GREEN
CAKES", "EAT GREEN CAKE", [EAST],
"THROW RED CAKE INTO POOL", "TAKE
CANDY", [WEST], "EAT BLUE CAKE", [NW]
-> INSTRUCTIONS ON OPERATING THE ROBOT
CAN BE FOUND IN THE SAME ROOM AS THE
ROBOT IS. DO THE FOLLOWING:
TELL ROBOT "GO EAST"
THEN GO [EAST] YOURSELF
TELL ROBOT "PUSH TRIANGLE"
TELL ROBOT "GO SOUTH"
THEN GO [SOUTH] AND "TAKE SPHERE"
TELL ROBOT "LIFT CAGE"
THEN "TAKE SPHERE" AND GO [N,W]
-> IN THE LOW ROOM, YOUR COMPASS WILL
BE QUITE UNRELIABLE, SO JUST DO WHAT
YOU DID IN THE CAROUSEL ROOM, EXCEPT
THIS TIME YOU'RE TRYING TO GET SE
TO THE TEA ROOM.
