The Errand Boy

Read the descriptions carefully, there you will find the clues to advance in the adventure, as well as information about the objects and characters present. Write your commands in the basic form: NAME VERB, for example GET HERRING, or CLOSE DOOR. Sometimes (not many), it may be necessary to write a more complicated command: OPEN DOOR WITH KEY, etc. To re-read the description of a locality, write LOOK (L). You can know the existing exits in a locality by typing: EXITS. To move use the cardinal points NORTH (N), SOUTH (S), EAST (E), WEST (W), UP, DOWN. It is essential to examine everything you can using: EXAMINATE, EX or X. This way you will find clues or hidden objects. Type INVENTORY (I), to know the objects you have in your possession. Manipulate objects with GET, DROP, PUT, REMOVE, PUSH, PULL, etc. To talk to the characters you must use SPEAK [CHARACTER], for example SPEAK GNOME. The game understands dozens of verbs, try to use the most appropriate verb in each case: WAIT (Z), ATTACK, OPEN, CLOSE, BURN, etc. If you are sure of something and the game does not understand you, try writing it in different words. In general, the use of the verb USE is not allowed, or more specifically the unnatural construction USE [SOMETHING] OVER [SOMETHING]. If you have a broom and you want to sweep the floor, type SWEEP no USE BROOM. If they have a knife and you want to attack a troll with it, use ATTACK TROLL or ATTACK TROLL WITH KNIFE, not USE KNIFE ON TROLL, etc.
