Zork III: The Dungeon Master Hints
What's the point of this game?
1 of 16: Most of the game is preparation.
2 of 16: You'll need to be ready for a meeting later on in the game.
3 of 16: That generally means solving lots of puzzles along the way. Eventually, everything should all come together.
4 of 16: But if you want a more explicit statement of your goal, I would suggest dying (saving first is probably advisable, of course). Just typing KILL MYSELF WITH ME (or with any weapon) will do the trick nicely.
5 of 16: Don't you wonder who the person who rescued you from death is?
6 of 16: Well, he's a very important figure in this game.
7 of 16: Read his description. He's someone you should try to emulate.
8 of 16: Specifically, you're looking to find everything that he has.
9 of 16: The items you need are listed in the following hints.
10 of 16: You need the wooden staff out of the chest.
