[net.games] Zork question

rjs (10/20/82)

I just discovered Zork recently and am having difficulty making much
progress.  I've managed to map out the forest, and have found the
house, tree with nest, clearing, and canyon.  How can I either
	a) open the grate in the clearing
	b) get somewhere besides the ledge, bottom and end of rainbow
	   in the canyon
	or
	c) find something else interesting?

	Thanks,
	Robert Snyder

Quick question about ZORK III -- can anyone tell me
how to get the 7th point?  I've gotten to the statues
too, and I don't know what to do with them.

Thanks *very* much!

   Interesting that you got to the statues without the 7th point. I know
it can be done but its a lot harder. The main thing to do with the statues
is get passed them without getting killed.

What does one do with the devil once he appears?  He
seems to want all of the treasures I can find, but he
still wants one more thing.  What does he want, my soul?
Should I be giving him all of the treasures?

What devil?  If you mean the thief, you can distract him
by giving him a treasure, and he has nimble fingers that
might be useful.  Sooner or later you gotta kill him, and
he's tough.

I think the question was dirrected at ZORK II.  There is a devil there,
and you MUST give him all the treasures.
