Instructions
There are some system words to control the game:
- SAVE GAME to save your position to the tape, during the hurrican this is not available
- YOHO to save your position anytime
- INVENTORY to list your objects carrying
- QUIT to give up the game


Solutions - Hints
The bear likes salt. So if you are starting to sweat, do not forget to take a bath, or it will eat you!

What do I do with the sand in the beginning?
DIG (the game will ask How?) WITH HANDS - you will make a hole.
How do I make salt?
Fill the bottle with seawater, and pour it on the hot rocks behind the cave. It will become salt.
Why do I keep drowning?
You cannot have any objects with you when you go into the lake, or you will sink and drown. That is, UNLESS you have a log with you. Make sure to HOLD BREATH first.
Where can I find a knife?
Swim down in the lake, then swim north.
Why can't I make a raft?
You will need TWO logs, and vines. Drop all these on the beach and then MAKE RAFT.
How do I get the log out of the volcano?
Try going UP from the volcano when you have the log with you. You won't be able to get out, but the log will land on the other side.
What do I give the pirate?
The bottle of rum of course!
I'm in the cave in the cliffs and can't go any further!
You need to get drastic with the stalactite...
I'm still in the cave in the cliffs and still can't go any further!
HIT STALACTITE - the game asks How? WITH COCONUTS. A crevice will open.
What is the password I need to vocalize?
Read the note the pirate gave you, it's says it pretty clearly.


Solutions - Complete
Here is the complete solution by MCG:

(At start you are on a beach by the Ocean. A large stone head is here. You have a watch that counts your steps. Note that you can carry maximum 6 objects simultaneously.)
DROP WATCH
LOOK HEAD (It's weird.)
GO HEAD (On top of the head, offshore is an atoll.)
D (On a beach by the Ocean. A large stone head is here.)
E (On a beach by the Ocean. Palm trees are here.)
GO PALM (In The top of a tree. Coconuts are here.)
GET COCONUTS
D (On a beach by the Ocean. Palm trees are here.)
W (On a beach by the Ocean. A large stone head is here.)
DROP COCONUTS
LOOK JUNGLE (You can see trees, wild animals, vines.)
DIG (How?)
WITH HANDS
LOOK SAND (I see a hole.)
EXAMINE HOLE (Found a bottle of rum.)
GET BOTTLE
S (On a plain.)
GO VOLCANO (On the rim of an extinct volcano. It is had work. Note that you are sweatting, that is salty after volcano climbing.)
EXAMINE vOLCANO (You see a bear and a cave. The poor beast has been trapped in the crater for years and is deficient in a certain mineral that only you can supply. Beware of the bear! When you are sweatting or nervous (look your inventory: there is Sweat), then the bear can sense your smell and it kills you! To avoid this, you have to have a bath in the lake after you have dropped all your objects. Save the game frequently from now on and avoid the bear until you can supply his needs another way.)

GO VOLCANO (In a volcano.)
DROP BOTTLE (You can't carry anything across the lake without assistance.)
GO LAKE (In a lake.)
SWIMM EAST (In a volcano.)
GET BOTTLE
GO CAVE (In a cave.)
EMPTY BOTTLE IN BASIN
E (In a volcano.)
DROP BOTTLE
GO LAKE (In a lake.)
SWIMM WEST (West of the lake on a secluded ledge on the volcano wall.)
GO CREVICE (On the edge of a cliff outside the volcano.)
JUMP (On a beach by the Ocean, a cliff is to the west.)
E (On a beach by the Ocean. A large stone head is here.)
SAVE GAME (Save your position in the game first!)

WAIT (If the hurricane hasn't started, it will. Hurricane Alexis hits island. This time the bear escapes in the cave. At some stage you will hear a CRASH, which is a palm tree falling over. If hurricane is simply too much for you, say "YOHO" to save your position in the game, but you can survive the storm the hard way.)
E (On a beach by the Ocean. When you can not hear CRASH! just go W and E again. Yes, it is dangerous to move in a hurricane but as far as I know you don't have a choice.)
GET LOG (This would come in handy for ferrying goods across the lake.)
W (On a beach by the Ocean. A large stone head is here.)
S (On a plain.)

SWIMM WEST (West of the lake on a secluded ledge on the volcano wall.)
DROP BOTTLE
E (In a lake.)
