12 Somewhere nearby is Colossal Cave, where others have found fortunes in
13 treasure and gold, though it is rumored that some who enter are never
14 seen again. Magic is said to work in the cave. I will be your eyes
15 and hands. Direct me with commands of 1 or 2 words. I should warn
16 you that I look at only the first five letters of each word, so you'll
17 have to enter "northeast" as "ne" to distinguish it from "north".
18 You can type "help" for some general hints. For information on how
19 to end your adventure, scoring, etc., type "info".

396 Open Adventure is an author-approved open-source release of
397 Version 2.5 with, as yet, no gameplay changes.
398 Version 2.5 was essentially the same as Version II; the cave and the
399 hazards therein are unchanged, and top score is still 430 points.
400 There are a few more hints, especially for some of the more obscure
401 puzzles. There are a few minor bugfixes and cosmetic changes. You
402 can now save a game and resume it at once (formerly you had to wait a
403 while first), but it now costs you a few points each time you save the
404 game. Saved games are now stored in much smaller files than before.
