<H1>Adventure Textfiles</H1>
Among the more popular games of the 80's were text adventures, which described
fantastic places and people in the form of paragraphs of text, and the player 
was asked to interact with these ASCII worlds and solve puzzles and dangers.
Since these games required a lot of intelligence and perseverance to solve, it
became a point of pride to release the solution or 'Solve" first. This was 
the set of instructions that provided a walkthrough for the game.
