→Beginning an Adventure
To play a cassette-based Adventure game, insert the tape into your recorder and position it at the start of the game (see "Loading Cassettes"). Then type CSl and press ENTER. Now follow the step-by-step instructions on the display to load the game into the computer's memory.
If the game is on diskette, insert the appropriate diskette into Disk Drive 1. Then enter the name of the data base as DSKlfilenameDSKl.filename, where filename is the name of the game on the diskette. For example, with a file name of A2, you would type:
DSK1.A2
Each game begins with a brief introduction to the Adventure series. When you finish reading this information, press ENTER to continue.
The program now explains the word or direction abbreviations that are allowable in the game and then asks, "Do you want to restore a previously saved game?" At this point, you choose to continue a previous game or begin a new game. To continue a game from a previous session, remove the Adventure tape from the cassette recorder or the diskette from Disk Drive 1. Next, insert the tape or diskette which contains your previous game. (For a tape, be sure it's positioned properly as explained in "Loading Cassettes.") Now, type Y for "yes." The program then asks for the file name of the saved game. With a cassette tape, enter the name as CSl.For a diskette, enter DSKlfilenameDSKl.filename, where filename is the name you gave the game when you saved it. The computer then loads the program into memory, and the game continues from the point where you stopped.
If you are starting a new game or did not save your previous game, answer N for "no" to the question about restoring a previous game. The adventure then begins.
