  18. Once upon a time (isn't that the way the best literature starts?), when 16K computers were still the size of a house, there were adventure games. Since then, the two have evolved together. Computers are now more powerful and sophisticated, and adventure games offer greater stimulation, delight, and challenge than ever before. Adventure games can excite the imagination, but they can be frustrating too. If all you need is just a hint or peek at a map to help you come unstuck, help lies between these covers. The Book of Adventure Games takes the frustration--not the challenge--out of playing adventure games. It provides evaluations, maps, illustrations, and clues for over 75 of the most popular games available on the Apple and other computers. Adventurers of all skill levels looking for that specific answer to speed them on their way will find just the hint needed to keep playing. Maps and hints are presented in a way that offers help without giving away the whole game and ruining it for you. This book won't tell you everything--just everything you need about the following titles: Adventure Adventureland Adventure in Time Ali-Baba and the 40 Thieves Beneath Apple Manor Birth of the Phoenix Blade of Blackpool Castle of Darkness Chambers of Xenophobia The Count The Coveted Mirror Cranston Manor Creature Venture Crime Stopper Crypt of Medea Crystal Caverns Curse of Crowley Manor Cyborg Dark Crystal Deadline Death in the Caribbean Demon's Forge Doom Valley Earthquake -- San Francisco, 1906 Empire of the Overmind Enchanter Escape From Rungistan Escape From Traam Fantasyland, 2041 AD G.F.S.
