Lines: 44 Jim, I have used zork on a univac 1180, which was patched from some other operating system, but i am told it is standard zork. okay, some hints........................... 1. The gunk is used to repair you boat that you inflate. If you ever inflate the boat with the pointed stick, it will poke a hole in the boat. 2. To get into hades you need the following: a. Candles b. Book then go to hades and say "exorcise" and the ghost will split for better places. I haven't figured out what you do down there, 'cause they kill you pretty quick as soon as you start fooling around. beware......... 3. Magic words like what?? i haven't found any that i could use anywhere. maybe...... 4. YES !!! Do you know the maze from the troll room??? Well, you go into the maze and i don't remember the commands you say to get through there, but you end up below a grate in the maze(catching on??)...you need keys(hint) to open it. The thief's lair is in that maze also, as well as a skelton. I would of sent you mail directly, but it didn't work out right.... Maybe i have given too much...i have only scored 385 out of 500 the last time i played. if you have gotten higher, let me know. It has been awhile since i played... -- Everything you know is Wrong!
