Companions of Xanth Hints
What should I do here?
1 of 9: There's really only one thing that you need to do at first -- wait for the phone to ring. You might want to look through some of the items on your desk while you are waiting.
2 of 9: When the phone rings, answer it.
3 of 9: You first have to turn on the lights in the foyer to reach the kitchen.
4 of 9: There's a light switch near the door, on the right side of the foyer.
5 of 9: Now just answer the phone and talk to Ed. Nothing that you can say is really all that bad, so explore through the choices and say whatever you feel like.
6 of 9: The eventual goal of the conversation is to get Ed to send you a computer game.
7 of 9: Once he hangs up the phone, go to the foyer to pick up the package with the game in it.
8 of 9: Open the package and the game box. The floppy is bootable.
9 of 9: Stick it in the disk drive, close the door, and turn on the computer. You're ready to play the game!
