1 WHAT ARE THE FOLLOWING ADVENTURES?
1 VOCABULARY
1 Two adventures on one tape for only `2.95 can't be bad. Both games are Quilled, have split screen graphics and a RAM SAVE/ LOAD option.
1 To find out, visit the ware- house and shoot the thug. He hasa wooden leg that sounds suspic-iously hollow so break it to find a map inside.
1 This leads you to a club whereyou overhear a conversation between two men, ""The word is out, we must meet at the ware- house."" While you are here you can order a drink and it will beput on your slate.
1 This adventure is well worth `1.95 and I have no hesitation in recommending it. It's a pity about the vocabulary though, which has cost this game a star.
1 This adventure ends, if you're good enough, in the castle's cellars. Even if you get this far you could find it's a shocking experience.
1 These commands are essential at times as you will require help with some problems. But there are times when you should be alone as I found to my cost when I plunged down a ravine.
1 There's a lot to be done whileon board the ship if you want tosurvive once you've jumped over-board. If you like to see thingsship shape you'll go far. A generous nature will come in handy and don't have any scruples about forgery.
1 There are plenty of puzzles inthis game to keep you occupied for a while - All is not as it seems to be in the enchanted garden, and you'll need green fingers to reach the elve's cave.
1 The winner, S Cranston of IPSWICH won WINTER WONDERLAND.
1 The solution to Competition 10 was
1 The peace and tranquility of your holiday is broken and you have to get off the ship, reach land and find a way of being rescued.
1 The adventure begins inside your castle and your first problem is to get out as you arewearing a disguise and the guards won't let you leave!

1 "then when you move forward, you just move your pin (a notice- board pin with a big head is best) forward, and you know exactly where you are."
1 "compass directions, makes it easy to forget where you are. And, unlike a standard adventureyou will find that there are no location descriptions, which makes it difficult to map."
1 "These are only some of the questions you will ask yourself in this exciting adventure."
1 ""You've found some-thing.""
1 ""Please re-phrase that.""
1 "" which is a little bit strange."
1 " You will soon meet a tiger whowill give you another spell to be used when the earth moves. You are now only two moves away from the most spectacular game ending I have ever seen. So if you save the game here, you willbe able to see it again at will.Believe me, it is worth watchingagain!"
1 " You will soon discover a lock-ed door in a tunnel, but gettingthe key to unlock it - which is lying in the fort, and, seeming-ly there for the taking - will keep your grey cells ticking over."
1 " You could carry on through thegame to the rain forest, but youhaven't rescued the villagers yet! They are somewhere in AztecCity. But first you will need toreturn to the temple in the river valley and find a potion to give to the condor who is guarding the villagers."
1 " While you are in the temple, rescue a god who is imprisoned by spiders webs - the stone"
1 " When you attempt to go throughthe tunnel you are told to leavethe llama behind and load part 2of the game, so it is advisable,if you have solved all the puzzles so far, to go back to the beginning and play through the game using the shortest route possible."
1 " WEAR the mask to get past the falcon and find a robe, which, if worn will get you past the condor guarding the exit on Condor Mountain."
1 " Very careful mapping is neededhere, you must leave the llama at the shallow crossing, float down on the log then return to collect the llama and take it tothe bridge."
1 " Unfortunately, using
1 " To the east of the village is the river valley where you will find a fawn which needs to be returned to its mother across the river. This is one of the tricky puzzles - the llama"
1 " This, coupled with the fact that you turn left or right or move forward by pressing one keyon the overlay which fits over the top lone of the Spectrum Keys, instead of moving in"
1 " The story is that you are a young Aztec coppersmith. You wake up one morning to find thatall the people have disappeared from your village and the sun has failed to rise."
1 " The reward for returning the fawn to its mother is being confronted by a god who says allanimals will be your friends. This is very useful, as you will"
1 " The game consists of eight areas - the deserted village where you start, The temple, theriver valley, Aztec City, the rain forest, the burnt forest, Condor City and Condor Mountain."
1 " The format of this game is rather like that of LORDS OF MIDNIGHT, in that as you turn, you are shown a different view of what is in front and to either side of you."
1 " The condors are the ""baddies"" of the game, so you may be tempted to ignore his command toget the snake vine to cure him, and his behaviour after you helphim may make you wish you hadn'tbothered, but do it anyway!"
1 " The adventure begins in a forest and after only one move Iwas dead! Our old friend Sudden Death had appeared in the form of a dagger thrown from a nearbyfort."
1 " The Red Lion is a ruby which was found by dwarfs mining in the Black Mountain. It is their greatest treasure and it has strange mystical powers."
1 " Remember the cryptic sentencesspoken by Quetzal? It's not too easy - the smake vine is protec-ted by a snake, so first you must go east into the burnt forest to find a hungry eagle."
1 " Now SAVE the game, this will give you the most time to comp- lete the rest of it. You will have noticed that the sun is sinking on your screen, you onlyhave a limited time to play."
1 " Moving forward, you will be confronted by a dragon - LEAVE"
1 " Moans aside, this is a really nice adventure and if while playing it you can't find the right word then type
1 " LEAVE the tear at the broken altar to repair it, then the coyote will come with you."
1 " LEAVE BEHIND the eagle to remove the snake, then get the snake vine, which you leave withthe wounded condor. Do not leavethis area until you have the conch, a seed, a feather and thetablet."
1 " Just for fun, you can summon as many gods as you wish - you will have discovered their namesby walking through the statues in the temple - but SAVE the game first! One of the gods is very unfriendly!"
1 " In the village, a copper pot, a bone key and a stone knife must be found, but as the pot isheavy, a llama would be useful as a beast of burden. The llama won't come with you unless you feed it with three grains of maize. You will also find a jadestatue but it is not essential for the completion of the game."
1 " In the centre of Condor City,"
1 " In the burnt forest, you will find various objects, amongst which are a thorn (poisonous),"
1 " In the Condor Mountain area, find a herb to give to the sloth, who will then carry you across a dodgy bridge."
1 " If you haven't guessed it by now, you must find the ruby and return it to the dwarfs."
1 " I'm glad I did because this is"
1 " I must confess that my sudden demise almost put me off this game but I persevered, if only because the editor's wrath is ten times worse than facing daggers flying through the air!"
1 " However, there is a log, whichfloats down the river and jams into the bridge, making it safe to cross."
1 " Each area is contained in a 10x10 grid. I found it best to"
1 " Back in the burnt forest, where you may need to USE the shield to protect you from the lightning, find an altar. LEAVE the seed and the feather then USE the conch to please the goddess."
1 " Back in Aztec City, the potionwill get rid of the condor guard and you can free the villagers. You will then be tolda spell which opens a tunnel in the north wall of the city."
1 " An interesting feature of thisadventure is that you can interact with these characters albeit in a limited way. You canuse commands such as
