AFRICAN ADVENTURE
(IN SEARCH OF DR. LIVINGSTONE)
Written by R. & B. Fullerton
Walk Through by Dorothy Millard (C64 Version)
Notes:
1. In some versions to kill the alligator use the spear instead
of the dagger. Also the diamond and dagger are in different
locations.
2. A native will throw a poison tipped spear at you during the
game, it just misses and the native runs away. Do not bother
with it unless you are playing the version which require you to
kill the alligator with the spear instead of the dagger. Never
take the spear with you into the native village or you will be
killed.

King Solomon’s Gold 20
Nose Ring 20
Dr. Livingstone 100
