It's only a beginner's adventure but it can prove as taxing as a Scott Adams' epic if you hit a brick wall. Here we present the complete solution to Super Gran, an adventure from Tynesoft that was presented with EUG #52.

You begin on a football pitch. KICK FOOTBALL (Until you've scored three goals. You will receive a hat), GET HAT, KICK POSTS, GET CROSSBAR, S, VAULT POLE (Into Scunner Campbell's bedroom - you wind up in the hospital).

LOOK TABLE, GET BOWL, EAT PORRIDGE, EAT PORRIDGE (You regain your strength), GET UP, S, E, GO SHOP, LOOK DARTBOARD, GET DART, N, E, N, N, N, W, GO THEATRE, GET WAND, GO CABINET, READ NOTE, TAP WAND, SAY ABRA(CADABRA), GET ROPE, U, SAY ABRA (The ferret that appears is completely useless!).

TAP WAND, SAY ABRA, GET PART, S, E, S, S, S, E, N, GO HOUSE, LOOK CUPBOARD, DROP WAND, DROP HAT, GET BOX, S, (Now keep going N(ORTH) and S(OUTH) until the milk float arrives - it can take a long time!).

GET MILK, MAKE PORRIDGE, EAT PORRIDGE, EAT PORRIDGE (To gain full strength again), S, E, GO BOAT, ROW BOAT, BREATHE IN, HOLD BREATH, GO LAKE, SWIM DOWN, GET MACHINE, SWIM UP, GO BOAT, ROW BOAT (Back to the shore), GO SHORE, W, GO HOUSE, USE MACHINE (You're invisible!).

DROP MACHINE (The other one!), N, W, GET POST, VAULT POLE, OPEN WARDROBE, GO WARDROBE, D, N, W, GET SHOVEL, S, GET SCULPTURE (One of the treasures!), E, N, GO CRACK, DIG, DROP SHOVEL, GET BLUEPRINT, THROW ROPE, CLIMB ROPE (Up the cliff), S, W, GO HOUSE, DROP PART, DROP BLUEPRINT, FIX MACHINE (Black fixes up the machine and now you'll have full strength!).

N, E, GO RAILWAY (Campbell will run for it), GO RAILWAY, W, GO HOUSE, S, GO SKIMMER, FLY (You may not see Campbell at once so just type anything until you do), THROW DART (His balloon will fall), LAND (You can land in many different places so now find your way to the Hospital).

E, E, E, E, GO RAILWAY, LOOK BALLOON, GET PEARL, LOOK BALLOON, GET CHAIN (Those were the last two treasures!), GO RAILWAY, W, W, N, N, GO HALL, DROP CHAIN, S, E, GO MUSEUM, DROP PEARL, DROP SCULPTURE. You will have replaced all the treasure and won the game!! Wasn't too hard, eh?
