Welcome to Battune the HERO.
STARTING THE GAME.
Just enter HERO to start the game.
Enter N to start a new game or enter R to restore a saved game.
Enter exactly three initials to identify your save game.
MOVING ABOUT.
You may use the cursor keys to move in any direction. For faster
play you may also enter North, East, South, West, Up, or Down.
You may also GOTO a room if you have been there at least once.
(i.e. GOTO GARAGE) (in caverns use an item name i.e. GOTO LADDER)
If I do not move in the desired direction, I have reached a limit
in the current area. Try a different direction.
MAP.
For easier play, if you enter MAP you will see all the rooms you have
been in, and the initial location of items.
ENTERING COMMANDS.
When you see the prompt ">" on your screen, you may enter commands.
SINGLE LETTER COMMANDS.
You may enter just one letter for the following commands.
N for NORTH E for EAST S for SOUTH
W for WEST U for UP D for DOWN
I to look at INVENTORY Q to QUIT
L to LOOK around the area you are in
MULTIPLE LETTER COMMANDS
You may enter from 2 to 6 letters for a command. Some commands are:
(note: all commands may not apply to Battune the HERO)
BREAK BUILD BURN BUY CHOP CLIMB
CUT DIG DOWN DRINK DROP EAST
EAT FEED FIX GET GIVE GOTO
INVENTORY JUMP KILL LIFT LIGHT LOAD
LOOK MAP MOVE NORTH OIL OPEN
PULL PUSH PUT QUIT READ REMOVE
RESTORE SAVE SHOOT SHOW SOUTH TAKE
TALK THROW TURN UP WAVE WEAR
WEST
If you wish to open a door with a key, you may enter OPEN DOOR or
UNLOCK DOOR. I will know you mean with the key.
ITEM NAMES.
You may enter from 1 to 6 characters of an item name.
Please note: many items have two names. You may enter either.
Example: RED DOOR you may enter RED or DOOR. But be unique.
If there is a RED DOOR and A RED DOG and you enter RED, I may not
know which you mean.
Also, if you have a choice between RADIO and RADISH, if you just enter
RAD, again I may not know which you mean.
ENTERING COMMANDS.
Commands can be full sentences or just a verb and nouns.
You may enter GIVE THE BONE TO THE RED DOG or
GIVE BONE DOG
GIVE BONE in which case I will assume you mean to the DOG.
Battune the EXPLORER.
Talk to everyone, they may have clues or items for you.
Travel the city performing good deeds.
One final suggestion. Save your game often. If you get killed
you will be returned home, and will have
to repeat your steps.

I would also appreciate any suggestions or comments to write more
grahic adventure games for the PC-compatible users.
Have fun in the many worlds of BATTUNE.
