I personally tended to use markers to mark passages I'd already explored
myself, so that I would know which passages to try.
I found myself that though I do have a problem with spacial orientation, the

real life worked
Hey Kelly,
I haven't played Swamp in a while, but think you might be encountering
a bug that to the best of my knowledge hasn't been squashed yet, that

That is a good point. The room you mentioned is also one of the same

That is absolutely true. The getchar function is about as basic and

Hi Kelly, something else which might help you, is the s key to move
backwoards, so if you're being attacked, then press the skey and keep moving
away from the zombie. If you have medkits you can heal yourself, then
switch back to your gun or whatever weapon you like to use. When you first

Don't shoot the equipment. Use the scope and only shoot when you hear the
high pitch that indicates that you are aimed correctly.

Hi Damien.
I will agree writing manuals isn't precisely david greenwood's strong

Aiming can take a bit of work; you might want to start off with one of the

Ok, here goes. The basic idea of the game is that you have to take over the entire map. You do this by capturing cities, and producing units with which you battle enemy units. A unit can be anything from infantry to tanks to fighters to
