Description:
It's a hot, steamy day in the Yucatan rain forest.
You are anAmerican archaeologist and are there in pursuit of the Lost City ofKukulcan, a fabulous city which many think exists only in legend.You, however, take your cue from pioneers like Schliemann, the discov-erer of the Troy of the fabled Helen, who began his work "with a spadein one hand, and Homer in the other." You're convinced that the Cityof Kukulcan is out there, somewhere, and you're determined to find it! However, you are not the first hardy soul to seek this city.
Manyothers have gone before you into this uncharted jungle -- and havenever returned! All you have as a guide is a vague map of question-able pedigree .... In order to complete your 'mission', you must travel through thejungle, find the city, explore the city, collecting objects and treas-ures as you go, and return to your base camp.
Be careful about thenumber of objects you take with you from camp -- you don't want to beoverloaded if the going gets tough! AND IT WILL! Note, also, that QUEST OF KUKULCAN depends on what YOU do; afterall, that's why this type of program is sometimes referred to as'interactive fiction'! If YOU don't do anything, neither will thecomputer!
