     ADVENTURE(6)                 (local)                 ADVENTURE(6)

     NAME
          adventure, zork, aardvark, rogue, wump - dungeon-exploration
          games

     SYNOPSIS
          /usr/games/adventure

          /usr/games/zork

          /usr/games/aardvark

          /usr/games/rogue

          /usr/games/wump

     DESCRIPTION
          Adventure is the grandaddy of dungeon-exploration games,
          part of the object of which is to puzzle out the object and
          the rules.  Zork marks the zenith of the genre; aardvark is
          yet another exemplar.

          Rogue requires a cursor-addressed terminal upon which
          appears a map of the cave pursuit.  Indicia published at the
          bottom of the screen are the cave level being explored, the
          amount of gold accumulated, armor class, and measures of
          your potency: `hit points', strength, and experience level.
          Type `?' for more help.

          The wump cave is inhabited by a Wumpus and by Super Bats
          that like to pick you up and drop you somewhere else.  You
          wander among the rooms, trying to shoot the Wumpus with an
          arrow, meanwhile avoiding being eaten by the Wumpus and fal-
          ling into Bottomless Pits.
