 Welcome to "Twin Kingdom Valley"
 ________________________________
   As you may have already guessed,
this is not only the name of this game,
but also of a mythical place in which
two kings reside. Naturally they hate
each other!
   This game is a simulation of the
life in that valley. Whilst you play,
other creatures will live their natural
lives in the valley. You start the game
somewhere in the valley.
   It is assumed that you are a typical
adventurous, bounty hunting, greedy
human, and that your main objective is
to finish the game with as much wealth
as possible.
   On your journey here you will have
heard a lot of gossip about the region
and its geography. Here is a summary of
that "gossip".

  _____________________________________
 
   Twin Kingdom Valley is one of many
valleys surrounding the vast lake of
Watersmeet (so named because it is the
meeting point of the many rivers and
streams which flow from the mountains
and valleys surrounding it).
   It is believed that the lake itself
has some mystical properties which,
some say, are derived from the many
potions of witches and so forth, which
have been spilt into the rivers and
streams throughout the ages.
   It is also said that a wise man may
look upon the secret of life, which
lies nearby.
   All this of course is simply gossip;
believe it if you will.
   You have rented a small hut, from
the innkeeper of "The Sword Inn", where
your ill gotten gains may be safely
stashed.

          Playing The Game
          ________________
   I cannot, of course, place you
bodily in this valley. Instead "YOU"
are represented inside the computer.
   You are allocated, for instance, a
certain strength which will go down if
you are stabbed, belted etc. by
unfriendly creatures, rather like in
real life.
   Under normal circumstances you will
gradually recover from any hurt, but
like everything in this life, there are
exceptions to the rule.
   Although the machine becomes your
physical body, you are of course still
left with your own mind! It will be
your decisions which determine your
fate.
 
 
  Press the space bar for the next page
  _____________________________________
 
   To play the game you must therefore
type instructions into the machine, and
after obeying you (if possible) the
machine will prompt you for another
instruction with a question mark.
   You may, for instance, choose to
move north, so just type
 MOVE NORTH <RETURN KEY>
   Most words may be abbrieviated, eg.
the above may be entered as
 N <RETURN KEY>
with exactly the same effect.
   The machine has its limitations,
and cannot understand everything, eg.
 IS THERE A GOOD GOLF COURSE NEARBY
will not make any sense to the machine.
Please keep your instructions short and
simple. Eg.
 TAKE THE KEY
Typing "INVENTORY" will list the items
in your possesion. "HELP" will list the
verbs which the machine understands.
 
  Press the space bar for the next page
  _____________________________________
   The machine also has many pictures
of the places in the valley. Some of
these hold useful clues.
   The game starts off by offering you
a choice of 6 options which control
when you see pictures and how much
description you get of the places you
visit. On your first game I recommend
option 1, which is selected simply by
pressing 1. You may alter the setting
by typing
 OPTION <RETURN KEY>
at any point in the game. Option 1 will
draw pictures of places which you have
not been to before, as you arrive.
   Press "DELETE" to erase any picture.
After some pictures you are told which
way you must face to see the picture.
This will often help you draw a map of
the valley (without which you might
easily get lost).
              Happy wandering
