| | Bugfixes | 1) The game is impossible to complete because the locations starting from 37 ("Murky bottom") are not reachable in any way. From the Murky bottom (room 37), we can go Up to the lake (room 36), but not back down. Perhaps that was the intended way. The fix below will add a "down" direction from room 36 to room 37:
1136 DATA 0,0,4,0,0,37
2) The fights are impossible to win, because the enemy health is initialized to the maximum value each round. To fix this, insert the following before the current code in the lines below:
320 B=1:
340 IFB=.THEN375:ELSEB=.:
This sets up a new variable (B), which functions as a flag. It's initialized to 1 in the beginning of the fight, and sets up the monster's health only once.
3) While fighting, if the enemy misses, they will not die. To fix this, in line 402, change GOTO321 to GOTO407.

| | Solutions - Complete | This is the probably intended solution. The game has several fatal bugs which prevent it from being completed. Even if the bugs are fixed, several mandatory fights (which are determined randomly) have a very low chance of succeeding.
(Getting the lantern, matches and lantern fuel - note that this can be skipped as there's no penalty for walking in the dark rooms.)
N, W
LIST, 1 (purchase fuel)
E, N, N, N
GET LANTERN
S, S, S, E, N, U, W, N
GET MATCHES
S, E, D, S, W, S
(Getting the stick)
S, S, S, E, E, E, E, E
GET STICK
W, W, W, W, W, S, S, W
(Reaching the depths)
If you have applied the bugfix outlined above, D would take you to the Murky bottom.
Otherwise you can use the built-in cheat command: JR (return) 37 (return)
USE STICK (you fall though)
KILL GHOUL (monster HP = 64)
W
KILL DEATH (monster HP = 2000)
N
KILL SPECTRE (monster HP = 168)
KILL DRAGON (monster HP = 768)
GET MEDALLION
