Terrible conversion

DullingWine

Five stars for the adventure game, which I played way back in the 80s on my BBC Model B, but only 1 for this shameful conversion. For a start I'm sure there's some text missing - what about the text which actually tells you the exits you can go? Are you just supposed to type n,w,s,e randomly until you go somewhere? Also it took me awhile to realize you had to put the focus in tiny strip below the text, surely the authors could have done much better than this terrible effort. Please improve - otherwise I'll consider the author/s nothing but dodgy geezers (for those that don't know this was another one in the series)

Poor interface

Doesn't appear to work. I played the original on the spectrum but could not persuade this one to obey any commands whatsoever. I remained in a smelly council flat with the TV showing 3-2-1 no matter what
