It initially sold for $24.95, and was distributed on [[:Category:Solid State Software Command Module|Solid State Software<sup>TM</sup> Command Module]].

==Gameplay==
Hunt the Wumpus pits the player in a contest to search for, and hunt down a mythical creature known as the Wumpus. The player navigates through an invisible cave. The visited chambers of the cave become visible once they have been visited. If the player enters the chamber where the Wumpus resides, he/she loses. Besides the beastly Wumpus, the cave system hosts other dangers including bottomless pits and cave bats.
