AFRICA GARDENS HOTEL
Written by Tom Davies
Walk Through by Dorothy Millard (C64 version)
Scenario
After a long journey you find yourself standing outside a faded
Victorian guesthouse. The cold winter evening seems to be getting
colder and misty rain swirls amongst the leafless trees around
Africa Gardens. You push open the heavy door and enter the silent
hall.
Notes
1. A large number of objects in the game are red herrings.
2. The ruby and the diamonds increase your score when carried,
but you cannot carry them and everything you need in the treasure
chamber at the same time, which means that it isn\'t possible to
score 100%.
