[rec.games.misc] Theldrow

Does anyone know which version is the most current release
of Theldrow?  I have version 1.0 of the Boden adventure, but
am interested in finding out about new releases.  I am also
interested in knowing how to get ahold of same.

Thank you,

There has been a lot of talk about Theldrow on the net recently.

I wanted to verify that Theldrow can be finished.  All of the parts are
there, and all of the information needed to finish the game can be learned
by playing it.

Yes, the book is hard to find.  Yes, there are clues in the game to help you
find it.

There do seem to be a few small bugs in the game.  Also, Boden is only the
first part in a series of three adventures.  I don't think the author meant
for all items to be available now.  BTW, IMHO, I think Theldrow is a
great game.  The author deserves much thanks.

If anyone wants specific hints on how to finish, feel free to send me mail.

   For those who are interested in Theldrow and the state of future
developments for it, I can at least provide some current info about the
author. 

   Glen Andreas, the author, finished his graduate work here at UMD this
summer and is now working for Palomar software out on the west coast.
I'm assuming he doesn't have a net feed yet, or we would have seen some
replies from him here on misc.sys.mac.

   Last I heard, Glenn was still planning on coming out with new
scenarios for Theldrow. As to when, who knows...

   Though a few people might be curious.
