Lost Dutchman, Version 2.1 August, 1997
File: LOSTDM21.ZIP (un-ZIPs, via WinZIP, to LOSTDM21.DSK)
In this nifty little Text Adventure your goal is to find the fabled "Lost Dutchman" mine and collect treasures. According to an in-program blurb, it is a "Rider Fantasy Creations" game. Games can be saved and restored. A text Info file is included on-DSK.
The Version 2 series includes a few new patches. Mainly, these fix a bug in scoring, eliminate dependency upon saving games to a specific folder, and supply an escape for a maze trap in the mine.
LOSTDM21.DSK is a bootable ProDOS disk image which includes a STARTUP program selector. You can launch the game program and begin the adventure or launch a text file reader in order to read the information file (LD2INFO.TXT). The Info file supplies tips for mapping and play as well as a game "map" and vocabulary listing.
