==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. As the player navigates from chamber to chamber within the cave system, certain chambers will alert him/her to dangers close to him/her.
==Fun Facts==
This was the first title programmed by [[Kevin Kenney]] who went on to create multiple titles for the TI-99/4A home computer including [[A-MAZE-ING]] and [[Tunnels of Doom]].
Hunt the Wumpus, [[A-MAZE-ING]] and [[Blasto]] were originally intended to be included on a single cartridge. However, [[Kevin Kenney]] added extra features to each of the titles making them viable stand-alone products.
