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

19 to end your adventure, scoring, etc., type "info".

471 Open Adventure is an author-approved open-source release of
472 Version 2.5 with, as yet, no gameplay changes.

476 puzzles. There are a few minor bugfixes and cosmetic changes. You
477 can now save a game and resume it at once (formerly you had to wait a
478 while first), but it now costs you a few points each time you save the
479 game. Saved games are now stored in much smaller files than before.
