Could someone help me out of the maze in Adventure.

The only fun way is to follow the hint it gives you when you're
in the maze about dropping things so you can tell where you are.
Just sit down with a piece of paper and make sure you have as
many things as you can carry. Then enter the maze and drop something
after each move. That way you can draw the maze and figure out where
you are.
It doesn't really take as long as it might seem. The most confusing
thing is that most of the passages in the maze either go nowhere
or come right back to where you started from.

Aha! But which maze are you in?gwyn@brl-tgr.ARPA (Doug Gwyn <gwyn>) (12/09/84)

Sorry, if you don't know where you are, how could we tell you
the way out? Start over, and this time MAP THE MAZE as you
explore it. If the rooms all look alike, try dropping things
to make them look different (in Zork, watch out for the thief).
If the descriptions of the rooms are slightly different, use
that to tell them apart. Never assume that going in the exact
opposite direction from your last move will take you back where
you came from, and try all 10 possible directions in each room.
