Walkthrough of the BBC Micro text adventure "Micro Adventure".
Originally released as "Micro Puzzle" (1984) by Les Howarth in Usborne's Weird
Computer Games (pp. 12-16) book of type-ins for various 8-bit computers.
This version with rather astounding graphics was created for BBC Micro, by John
Blythe of Rucksack Games and released as "Micro Adventure" in 2019.
The following solution was initially copied and pasted from Richard Bos'
original solution for "Micro Puzzle" at
www.solutionarchive.com/file/...
The following modifications were then applied for the "Micro Adventure"
release:-
* Commands converted to upper case to match this particular version.
* I happen to use GET as one less character to type, but TAKE as in the
original solution is stil OK to use.
* REMOTE-CONTROL which could never be abbreviated has changed to REMOTE in this
version, as easier to type.
* The COMPUTER has been renamed LAPTOP.
* The LAPTOP numeric code is changed from 111 to 404 in this version.
* The LAPTOP password is changed from GROCER to NOSE in this version.
