Thanks for that, I forwarded that link to a few friends. You can now confidently sleep the sleep of one who knows they have helped others waste countless hours in front of a computer screen

John's just this guy, you know.

I gave up shortly. Never having seen the game before, it looks like it will take to long to get through.

Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.

Once you know the route through the maze, Ricky (which I think I had memorized in 1982), it should take no more than five minutes or so to get the chalice into the gold castle. (Solution available on request.)

Hey, is it just me, or does that thing only have the beginner's level, slightly modified?

And where is that confounded bridge?

Siberia, you'll first need Flash:

http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash

It's an old Atari 2100 console game, called "Adventure." I used to play it, back in the day. For some reason, his sin't working for me.

1) Click the "game reset" switch to start the game.

2) Using the arrow keys on your keyboard, move the dot (that's you) around.

3) Pick up objects by running into them. You can only hold one object at a time. Space bar drops an object you're holding.

4) There is a glowing chalice somewhere. The object of the game is to get the chalice into the gold (yellow) castle.

5) A key will unlock a castle of the same color. Touch the castle gate with the key.

6) Dragons try to eat you. If you get eaten, reset the game.

Whee... I made it.

But there are a few bugs in the game.
In the maze, if you leave an object, then reenter the area in some cases the item will disappear only to reappear if you enter the area from another area.

Mab, there is a bat which flies around in the game and rather randomly redistributes items, sometimes.
