I've never really dabble with Spectrum adventures before, but couldn't resist buying this.

Lack of free time has meant I've not been able to spend much time on this, but one of my initial impressions was how complex the map is. I've had a laptop and a copy of Open Office running while I've been playing this on my Next, and have been slowly mapping it on the laptop.

I'm not far in. What about yourself?

Here's my map. I don't know how to get past the splice.

I fired my Cronosoft tape up on my +2 this affa. It was a bloody long load, but when you don't use real hardware that often, it was a pleasure.

Not much progress made yet beyond exploring and appreciating Clive's graphics. This is the first adventure I've played where the F-bomb is a properly valid command.
