  Excellent classic adventure, not to big and fun to play. The other game by Bignose software was "The Opera House" Here's the completed command list as far as I have found out, not all used and in no particular order so this shouldn't spoil things: N/S/E/W/U/D EXAM READ GET DROP GO OPEN GIVE DRUG OPEN KILL STAND MEND SPREAD JUMP PRESS PAY FEEL RUB RIG CLIMB UNLOCK UNBOLT HIT STICK PHONE PAY WEAR (you need to drop and object pick it up then wear it) BREAK PUSH DRILL CUT SPRAY MOVE F*!! PLACE also works, but seems to screw up your inventory and you end up not being able to carry anything much, so avoid this command! www.gwobby.webs.com

  A simple but quite entertaining text adventure. A bit low on descriptive text but compensates with some very clever puzzles and humorous touches (did anyone else try climbing the fence in the car park?).

  This text adventure is actually not a bad game if you're into that sort of thing. I remember puzzling over this for ages and wishing I had a walkthrough before such things existed. I played this with one other, I think it was called phantom of the opera though I can't be sure.
