             SHIP OF DOOM


            Fatal SHIP

            ===============


     Authors: Artic Computing (C) 1982


     The second program, which we present, was circumvented
attention, we think, because of its
venerable age and terrible interface.
Once it was made complete
Disk version, upgraded input / output, get something that meets 
in our view current requirements. This game

in English. But you should not have this
scare, because description of the game short and
understandable.

     As we know, this program is the third in a series 
adventyurnoy. In the first (ADVENTURE 'A'), as far as is known, 
must be "... on an alien planet to find and free the trapped 
and powerless spaceship. "What should do ADVENTURE 'B' - is 
unknown. Likely to have it repaired. If anyone have any 
thoughts about this or the above programs - call, write, COME!


     So the plot. When the intelligence
fly your ship was captured by the gravitational beam with alien 
craft. Your goal - to free your vehicle by pressing the

control button on the main computer
Hall. Do not confuse this button with ESCAPE BUTTON, which will 
fall to you in the first location. ESCAPE BUTTON need to fly, 
and managing Konopka - to turn off the gravitational beam.


     So, make sure of the uselessness
ESCAPE BUTTON go south and take away
aboard an alien ... To take
key, located under the lid, you need a screwdriver ultrasound 
SONIC SCREWDRIVER. But it still needs to be assembled from 
parts scattered throughout the ship. With you constantly robot 
FRED, which sometimes gives smart tips or useful information.


     Need to say about governance.
The program only understands design:
 "Verb + noun" or "verb".
In addition, a different perception of the name of some items. 
Ie If you see ANDROID MAN, you should check

which part of the name of the program understands (ANDROID or 
MAN). Unfortunately, the program has no equivalent command 
LOOK. Rather, the team is there, but She serves as EXAMINE. And 
in order to recall a description of the location,

need to get out of it and enter again. Most
big problem is not guessing, and selection of readable
phrases. Example: you have the key KEY, and you
see keyhole KEYHOLE. Logically
suggest that we must insert a key:
INSERT KEY. Here the question arises:
INTO WHAT? Do not attempt to try to be clever, such as
INSERT KEY INTO KEYHOLE. Just specify:
INTO HOLE. Besides, sometimes you have to specify what to give, 
and sometimes - to whom. Check experiment. 



            GOOD LUCK!
