Far below you is an active volcano, from which great gouts of molten lava come surging out, cascading back down into the depths. The glowing rock fills the farthest reaches of the cavern with a blood-red glare, giving everything an eerie, macabre appearance. The air is filled with flickering sparks of ash and a heavy smell of brimstone. The walls are hot to the touch, and the thundering of the volcano drowns out all other sounds. Embedded in the jagged roof far overhead are myriad formations composed of pure white alabaster, which scatter their murky light into sinister apparitions upon the walls. To one side is a deep gorge, filled with a bizarre chaos of tortured rock which seems to have been crafted by the Devil Himself. An immense river of fire crashes out from the depths of the volcano, burns its way through the gorge, and plummets into a bottomless pit far off to your left. To the right, an immense geyser of blistering steam erupts continuously from a barren island in the center of a sulfurous lake, which bubbles ominously. The far right wall is aflame with an incandescence of its own, which lends an additional infernal splendor to the already hellish scene. Rising up from the volcano, the sulfurous smoke seems to shape the letters "P L O V E R". You wonder what it might mean, but decide it is probably isn't important.

A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE ADVENTURE GAME TOOLKIT The ADVENTURE GAME TOOLKIT (AGT) is designed to allow a game designer/writer to create and play his/her own high-quality text adventure games. Once created, these adventure games can be shared with and enjoyed by others -- even if they do not have a copy of the Adventure Game Toolkit themselves. Using AGT the game developer can create two distinct levels of adventure games: STANDARD LEVEL games that require no programming experience (honestly!!), only a fertile imagination. These Standard Level games only require that the game designer/writer generates the game using a word processor or text editor to describe the various locations, objects and results of actions that collectively make up the game. PROFESSIONAL LEVEL games that also make use of AGT's special adventure game metalanguage to create games as complex and rich as the game designer's imagination and prose style will allow. These games should be technically comparable with the published text adventure games from firms like Infocom. FEATURES OF THE ADVENTURE GAME TOOLKIT AGT has a number of features that make it a very comprehensive adventure game creation product. Some of these key features are: * "Look and feel" of Infocom adventure games with similar screen layout and standard vocabulary and routines. * Large standard vocabulary with potential to define many more words unique to a specific adventure. Typical games can have a vocabulary of 500 words or more. * Sophisticated parser that can understand (1) complex input commands including pronouns (IT, HIM, HER, THEM, MY and ITS), and (2) compound commands separated by AND or THEN or punctuation symbols, and (3) commands addressed to characters within the game. Here are a few examples of commands AGT can handle with ease: GET THE FLASH LIGHT AND THEN SWITCH IT ON PUT ON THE CLOAK, THEN EXAMINE IT; READ ITS LABEL PLACE THE GREEN ROCK AND THE SMALL PEBBLE BEHIND THE TREE ENTER THE HOUSE; GET ALL; EXIT; SOUTH; SOUTH THEN DOWN SULU, SET A COURSE FOR ALPHA 14 SCOTTY, BEAM DOWN A TRICORDER AND THE QWERTY MODULE DROP THE FOOD, THE KEY AND THE BOTTLE THEN UNLOCK THE DOOR WITH THE BRASS KEY AND THEN LEAVE * Function and cursor keys predefined to input frequently used commands and move directions. * SCRIPT and UNSCRIPT commands to echo game output to printer. * Versions for IBM, Macintosh, Atari ST and Amiga. Games created on one of these computers can be played on all of the other computers without making any modifications to the game. WHAT THE REVIEWERS HAVE SAID ABOUT THE ADVENTURE GAME TOOLKIT "Using the Adventure Game Toolkit, anyone with an ounce of imagination can create a text adventure game ... similar in layout and sophistication to those made by Infocom and other commercial developers." -- Donald B. Trivette in PC Magazine (January 17, 1989) "The Adventure Game Toolkit (AGT) acts as a compiler which allows for creating remarkably complex and sophisticated games in a fairly simple way .... AGT's parser reminds me of Infocom's." -- Scorpia in Computer Gaming World (February 1989) "If you have ever wondered what it is like to create your own adventure games, but didn't have the programming knowledge to do it, this product is for you .... The process is easy ... and you'll have hours of fun doing it." -- Resul DeMaria in Public Domain Software & Shareware "The Adventure Game Toolkit from Softworks ... provides all the tools you need to build your own text based adventure games .... The Adventure Game Toolkit is an extremely powerful development package." -- Bob Napp in Big Blue Disk #30 AGT was recently award the Adventure & Strategy Club (of England) "Golden Chalice" award. THE ADVENTURE GAME TOOLKIT IS NOW "FREEWARE" AGT is now "freeware." This means that the authors, David Malmberg and Mark Welch, still retain the copyright to AGT and all of its related files, such as the documentations and sample games. However, you or any other user may use the AGT system to develop and distribute your own games without paying any royalty to the AGT authors. So enjoy!!

The object of the game is for you to explore the cave and return (safely) with as much treasure as possible. The cave is a mysterious and magical place. You will face many puzzling and perilous challenges as you explore. END_INTRODUCTION
