#1
Somewhere nearby is Colossal Cave, where others have
found fortunes in treasure and gold, though it is rumored
that some who enter are never seen again. Magic is said
to work in the cave. I will be your eyes and hands. Direct
me with commands of 1 or 2 words. I should warn you that I
look at only the first five letters of each word, so you'll
have to enter "Northeast" as "ne" to distinguish it from
"North". (Should you get stuck, type "help" for some
general hints).
#2
A little dwarf with a big knife blocks your way.
#3
A little dwarf just walked around a corner, saw you,
threw a little axe at you which missed, cursed, and ran away.
#4
There is a threatening little dwarf in the room with you!
#5
One sharp, nasty knife is thrown at you!
#6
None of them hit you!
#7
One of them gets you!
#8
A hollow voice says "Plugh".
#9
There is no way to go that direction.
#10
I am unsure how you are facing. Use compass points or
nearby objects.
#11
I don't know in from out here. Use compass points or name
something in the general direction you want to go.
#12
I don't know how to apply that word here.
#13
I don't understand that!
#14
I'm game. Would you care to explain how?
#15
Sorry, but I am not allowed to give more detail. I will
repeat the long description of your location.
#16
It is now pitch dark. If you proceed you will likely fall
into a pit.
#17
If you prefer, simply type W rather than West.
#18
Are you trying to catch the bird?
#19
The bird is frightened right now and you cannot catch
it no matter what you try. Perhaps you might try later.
#20
Are you trying to somehow deal with the snake?
#21
You can't kill the snake, or drive it away, or avoid it,
or anything like that. There is a way to get by, but you
don't have the necessary resources right now.
#22
Do you really want to quit now?
#23
You fell into a pit and broke every bone in your body!
#24
You are already carrying it!
#25
You can't be serious!
#26
The bird was unafraid when you entered, but as you approach
it becomes disturbed and you cannot catch it.
#27
You can catch the bird, but you cannot carry it.
#28
There is nothing here with a lock!
#29
You aren't carrying it!
#30
The little bird attacks the green snake, and in an
astounding flurry drives the snake away.
#31
You have no keys!
#32
It has no lock.
#33
I don't know how to lock or unlock such a thing.
#34
It was already locked.
#35
The grate is now locked.
#36
The grate is now unlocked.
#37
It was already unlocked.
#38
You have no source of light.
#39
Your lamp is now on.
#40
Your lamp is now off.
#41
There is no way to get past the bear to unlock the chain,_
which is probably just as well.
#42
Nothing happens.
#43
Where?
#44
There is nothing here to attack.
#45
The little bird is now dead. Its body disappears.
#46
Attacking the snake both doesn't work and is very dangerous.
#47
You killed a little dwarf.
#48
You attack a little dwarf, but he dodges out of the way.
#49
With what? Your bare hands?
#50
Good try, but that is an old worn-out magic word.
#51
I know of places, actions, and things. Most of my vocabulary
describes places and is used to move you there. To move, try
words like forest, building, downstream, enter, east, west,
north, south, up or down. I know about a few special
objects, like a black rod hidden in the cave. These objects
can be manipulated using some of the action words I know.
Usually you will need to give both the object and action
words (In either order), but sometimes I can infer the
object from the verb alone. Some objects also imply verbs;
in particular, "inventory" implies "take inventory", which
causes me to give you a list of what you're carrying. The
objects have side effects; for instance, the rod scares the
bird. Usually people having trouble moving just need
to try a few more words. Usually people trying unsuccessfully
to manipulate an object are attempting something beyond their
(or my!) capabilities and should try a completely different
tack. To speed the game you can sometimes move long distances
with a single word. For example, "building" usually gets you
to the building from anywhere above ground except when lost
in the forest. Also, note that cave passages turn a lot, and
that leaving a room to the north does not guarantee entering
the next from the south.
Good luck!
#52
It misses!
#53
It gets you!
#54
OK
#55
You can't unlock the keys.
#56
You have crawled around in some little holes and wound up
back in the main passage.
#57
I don't know where the cave is, but hereabouts no stream
can run on the surface for very long. I would try the stream.
#58
I need more detailed instructions to do that.
#59
I can only tell you what you see as you move about and
manipulate things. I cannot tell you where remote things are.
#60
I don't know that word.
#61
What?
#62
Are you trying to get into the cave?
#63
The grate is very solid and has a hardened steel lock. You
cannot enter without a key, and there are no keys nearby.
I would recommend looking elsewhere for the keys.
#64
The trees of the forest are large hardwood oak and maple,
with an occasional grove of pine or spruce. There is quite
a bit of undergrowth, largely birch and ash saplings plus
nondescript bushes of various sorts. This time of year
visibility is quite restricted by all the leaves, but travel
is quite easy if you detour around the spruce and berry
bushes.

Would you like instructions?
#66
Digging without a shovel is quite impractical. Even with a
shovel progress is unlikely.
#67
Blasting requires dynamite.
#68
I'm as confused as you are.
#69
Mist is a white vapor, usually water. Seen from time to time
in caverns. It can be found anywhere but is frequently a
sign of a deep pit leading down to water.
#70
Your feet are now wet.
#71
I think I just lost my appetite.
#72
Thank you. It was delicious!
#73
You have taken a drink from the stream. The water tastes
strongly of minerals, but is not unpleasant. It is extremely
cold.
#74
The bottle of water is now empty.
#75
Rubbing the electric lamp is not particularly rewarding.
Anyway, nothing exciting happens.
#76
Peculiar. Nothing unexpected happens.
#77
Your bottle is empty and the ground is wet.
#78
You can't pour that.
#79
Watch it!
#80
Which way?
#81
Oh dear, you seem to have gotten yourself killed. I might
be able to help you out, but I've never really done this
before. Do you want me to try to reincarnate you?
#82
All right. But don't blame me if something goes wr......
--- POOF !! ---
You are engulfed in a cloud of orange smoke. Coughing and
gasping, you emerge from the smoke and find...
#83
You clumsy oaf, you've done it again! I don't know how long
I can keep this up. Do you want me to try reincarnating
you again?
#84
Okay, now where did i put my orange smoke? ... > POOF! <
Everything disappears in a dense cloud of orange smoke.
#85
Now you've really done it! I'm out of orange smoke! You
don't expect me to do a decent reincarnation without any
orange smoke, do you?
#86
Okay, If you're so smart, do it yourself! I'm leaving!

Sorry, but I no longer seem to remember how it was you
got here.
#92
You can't carry anything more. You'll have to drop something
first.
#93
You can't go through a locked steel grate!
#94
I believe what you want is right here with you.
#95
You don't fit through a two-inch slit!
#96
I respectfully suggest you go across the bridge instead
of jumping.
#97
There is no way across the fissure.
#98
You're not carrying anything.
#99
You are currently holding the
