SPIRITWRAK, An Interactive Fantasy Adventure^\
If you're new to interactive fiction games, I lack the \
space here to give an adequate description, but in short, \
you're a character in a story, able to interact with \
objects, places and other things (using regular english \
sentences) in order to reach your goal, which is to \
figure out how to ~solve~ the story. For a real \
description, you might want to check out documents \
located at ftp.gmd.de.^^\
For those more experienced players, if you're looking \
for on-line clues, etc., sadly, you won't find them \
(the Z5 code is getting rather obscenely large as I \
write this). A short verb list is contained in the \
README file that you should have received with this \
game (or should be able to find at the same place you \
found this game). Beyond that, if you're truly \
desperate, you can post a note on the rec.arts.int-fiction \
usenet newsgroup, or send me email.^^\
Thanks for playing! ^^\
