| | Description | |
| This is a very mysterious game! It has been released for Plus/4, C64 and also Enterprise (see this Hungarian description for the Enterprise version: http://ep128.hu/Ep_Games/Leiras/Newton_almaja.htm)
The game may be the most complex/obfuscated/hard to crack programs ever written. If you are a coder, try to disassemble it.
To our knowledge, the game has not been solved yet.
Controls:
Move around: Cursor
Select: Space
The screen shows the aerial view of a city. You can walk around and try to enter the buildings. Each door has a 3 letter/number combination. Some doors open for any combination, and there are advanced mechanics at work for others.
Once a door is opened, you get a riddle. If you can solve it, you receive part of a picture.
Translations:
"Mi a betűzár kódja" - What is the letter lock's combination?
"A zár nem nyílik" - The lock won't open (You entered the wrong code)
"Ez most nem időszerű" - It's not the time for this (This door cannot be opened right now regardless of the code)
"Belépni tilos!" - Entry forbidden! (Shown if you've already been to this door) |

| | Hidden Text | |
| The game contains the following hidden text at $6EFE:
DATATRONIC BLOCK
Also, from $7060-$70E0 there is some text left in memory which appears to be Forth source code. |

The buildings are marked with a letter. Each building has multiple doors, which are numbered from 1, starting on the top, or left side, going clockwise.
Buildings open at start:
A, B, C, D, E, G, H, I.
The other 8 are locked:
F, J, K, L, M, N, O, P.
NOTE: The letter lock combinations are random!
Here's how it can be verified: open a door by guessing the code. After reset (or re-loading the game) the same code will not work.
Here's what's not random:
- if a door opens with *L*, that means the first and the last letters are not checked, only the middle letter is. While the letter is random, the pattern is not.
- if a door is marked with ***, it will open with any combination
- it appears that if two doors within one house are let's say ABC and ADE, the first letters will always be the same.
The above means that the letters will be random on start up, or after reset. It's almost pointless to list out the codes, but the patterns should help. However, if we can guarantee that the program is run exactly the same way, the codes are reliable. This is where emulators come in. Here's how the codes below will work: Run the prg file in Windows using YAPE 0.80.
