This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

� Archimedes World 1993
-----------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Command Line Input
------------------
To enable you to play the adventure there are FOUR types of input that the
program will understand. These are :-
1. Keyboard Entry
2. Control Button Entry
3. Mouse Entry
4. Function Button Entry
You can use these in their own right or by mixing them to achieve the desired
Command Input Line.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Keyboard Entry
--------------
Keyboard Entry is the most common of all the Command Line Inputs. Whatever
you want to do in the adventure, you simply type the command in and press the
<RETURN> key. The program will automatically validate your input and respond
accordingly. If it does not understand your command, it will ask you to
clarify your input.
For example :
If you enter : USING THE SWORD ATTACK THE MAN
THE COMPUTER WOULD REPLY WITH A MESSAGE THAT IT DID NOT UNDERSTAND
You could rephrase the command : ATTACK MAN WITH THE SWORD
Always phrase your input as logically as possible to avoid misunderstanding.

LOAD GAME FROM DISC
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mouse Entry
-----------
You can use the mouse to select words from the text on the screen and add it
to your command line. Simply move the mouse pointer to the word you wish to
choose and press the SELECT (Left Hand) button on the mouse. The word will
now appear on your command line. Repeat the process until you have selected
all the text you require.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Function Button Entry
---------------------
When the game first loads it will ask you whether you wish to load the preset
function key commands, if you do type Yes. If you wish to add your own type
NO, the computer will then ask you for your own definitions of the function
keys F1 through F12. It will then ask you if you wish to save these to disc,
answer accordingly.
The function keys can thus be programmed to contain commands which you think
you may require frequently and thus saving you typing time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hints on Playing Darklands
--------------------------
Using common sense will undoubtably see you through to the end. Sometimes a
policy of attack and ask questions later is a sure fired way of getting into
a lot of trouble. Asking characters that you come across, for help, will be
rewarded with valuable information. Certain weapons are useless against some
adversaries, so choose your weapons well!
Once combat is entered into, it will continue until either you and your
opponent is DEAD - There is no SURRENDER!
There are over 200 locations within the game and many characters for you to
interact with. The object is to find three pieces of paper and take them to
a secret location, where you will be rewarded for your gallant efforts.
There are many verbs catered for including EAT, DRINK, ASK, ATTACK, WAIT,
HELP, TAKE, GIVE, DROP, Etc. If you have trouble making your intentions clear
think of another way of saying it.
Due to the size of this adventure and the dangers it contains, it is prudent
to SAVE your position to disc periodically.
The music can be turned off and on using SOUND OFF/SOUND ON. You can also
fade the music out by using SOUND FADE.
The grahics can be turned off and on by using GRAPHICS OFF/GRAPHICS ON.
RSAVE will save your current status to RAM. RLOAD will load your last saved
status from RAM.
The game runs in MODE 15, this must be selected from the desktop before you
start the game. Your USER MANUAL will explain how to do this if you are not
sure.
All that remains to say is Happy Adventuring and be HONEST!
Until the next, even bigger, even better, adventure.
Goodbye and Goodluck.
