        Greetings, mate, and welcome to Treasure Island! I'm Robert Louis
Stevenson, author of this hearty tale of high-seas adventure.
        In this game, you're young Jim Hawkins, the hero of Treasure Island,
and you'll try to recover the legendary treasure of the infamous pirate,
Captain Flint. To get the booty, you'll need to locate the treasure map. But
beware ... the pirates who sailed with old Captain Flint are also searching for
treasure. These treacherous sea dogs crave riches and rum, and will stop at 
nothing to get them!
        Luckily, you'll have some help on your adventure. The courageous
Captain Smollett, the burly Squire Trelawney, and the wise Dovtor Livesey are
all honest men who'll aid you as much as they can. You'll also meet crafty Long
John Silver and a strange maroon, Ben Gunn. And I'll appear from time to time
as your adventure proceeds.
        Your adventure starts at the Admiral Benbow, the quiet inn and tavern
kept by your family on the misty shores of Bristol, England. You're standing in
the parlor near Billy Bones, a hard-drinking and crusty old pirate
        Are you ready, mate, to embark on an adventure that others have only
dreamed of? Mustr all your courage and choose your friends carefully. If you
can outwit the greedy pirates, you'll find a treasure chest overflowing with
brilliant gold booty-more that you can imagine. Good Luck!
