Bzzt.  The combination is actually given as a clue!  I haven't played this,
but my friend was playing on a mac, and was showing me the various rooms.
And in one of the rooms, I pointed to something and said "Wait, isn't that
the combo", and sure enough...  Don't know about the Amiga version, but
I don't think they'd pull out the clue.
