News & Stuff
The EAG now has new, lower back-issue prices! With the Apple II world continuing to shrink, the EAG's expenses aren't so much as they once were. These days, I get few inquiries and little correspondence, and new adventures are few and far-between. (Alas.)
I had traditionally felt that back issues should cost as much as new issues do, which works out to $1.75 per issue. I've recently had a change of heart and now feel that everyone who wants them should have a full set of newsletters.
Therefore, in the interests of getting a full set of NEUC and EAG issues to everyone who wants them, back issues are now priced just pennies above the break-even point. See the back-issue item on page 2 for the new pricing.
Phil Moore is our Eamonaut of the Month for his EAG Utilities Menu program. Phil gets 10 disk sides or 5 back issues of his choice. Send in your list, Phil!
I have to say in passing that Phil has been a real asset over the years. Thanks for all your help, Phil! And a big thank you to everyone else who has helped out at one time or another.
I have a scheduling conflict with the national LDRS High-Power Rocketry meet in South Carolina, and so I am not going to KansasFest this year. But, trust me, Kfest is a ton of fun. If you go, you won't regret it.
For a limited time (probably until the Sept. EAG comes out) we are offering a special deal that will enable you to get the entire Eamon library compressed to 3.5" disks for a very reasonable price. See details inside!
We're always looking for upload errors. I just recently found out that an Eamon that had been on Genie for years was corrupted and could not be properly played. I also was informed of a couple of errors in some Internet FTP uploads.
We need to do all we can to stomp bad Eamon uploads out! To that end, I ask you all to please tell me any time you find a munged Eamon file.
I am offering bribes!! For each bad Eamon upload found, I will give the informer one back issue or two 5.25 disk sides of their choice!
The big news these days in Eamon seems to still be the advent of Apple II emulators for various modern platforms. No longer does it make sense to work on simple ports of original Eamons over to Mac and PC environments. We hope to have a detailed article on emulators in an upcoming issue of this newsletter.
Speaking of ports of Eamon, John Nelson is still working away on his QuickBasic Eamon system for the PC. This system supposedly is considerably enhanced over the basic Eamon system that we know and love. I hope to be getting a copy of the latest version sometime soon and should have more information in a future EAG issue.
Our own Matt Vigor is in the process of building a very nifty Web page for Eamon! It is presently a work in progress, but what is in place already is very impressive.

Special Deal — Limited Time Offer!!
I now have the DOS 3.3 and 80-col. ProDOS Eamon collections archived to 3.5 disks. For a limited time, I am making these available to EAG members to update and complete your Eamon collections.
These are ShrinkIt archives. To access them, you must have a minimum of one 3.5 drive and one 5.25 drive. The DOS 3.3 titles require a 3.5 and a 5.25.
The EAG members' price for the entire set is $25.00. To take advantage of this offer, you must take these steps:
- This offer requires that you supply the disks. You must include 18 DD 3.5 floppies with your payment. Note that these must be DD disks. My drives cannot read nor write to HD disks, so don't send them.
- You must use a shipping container that I can re-use to return the filled disks to you.
- The $25.00 price includes formatting the floppies with ProDOS. If you format the disks for me, the price is $20.00. This reflects the time savings I get from not having to do the formatting. It doesn't matter what ProDOS volume name you use since I will be doing whole-disk copying.
- If any of the above requirements are not met, the disks will be returned unfilled, and the shipping cost will be deducted from your refund. This may seem petty, but I really hate making disks and it takes quite a while to copy and verify 18 3.5 floppies.
- If you need ShrinkIt, tell me and I will include it on one of the disks. (Note for GS-ShrinkIt users: GSHK cannot handle 5.25 disk archives.)
Please understand that there may possibly be considerable delay if I get a lot of response to this offer. It is unlikely that I will be able to process more than one per week. If it will take more than 6 weeks for me to get your disks done, I'll drop you a note to let you know what the date will probably be.
As with all other EAG activities, the proceeds from this will go into the general fund and will contribute to the usual membership extension that I use to soak up excess funds.
Eamon Walk-Through
A Walk-Through of Eamon #132 Rhadshur Warrior
First, for those who want to solve it themselves, here are some hints:
It's a pain, but you'll probably want to have the Seeker scan each room and then check for advice as you go along. Rooms that you really want to do this include:
- Before the Main Gate
- Beneath the sewer grate
- Before releasing Threndor
- In the secret room beneath the jail
- In the Mystics' Dream Room
Be sure to read your encounters with Zarg very carefully to find what the upgrades do and where to get them. You only get this information once.
Pay attention to your typing when dealing with Zarg. If he gets angry and leaves, you won't get the upgrades and information he has. And you need them!
The Mystics are very tough opponents. Be sure to bring along at least one major magical weapon. There are two 2D5 swords, 'Exeter' and 'Soul Catcher'; give one to Timur and one to Gareth.
The SAVE routine requires a blank disk. To restart a saved game, boot the "save" disk.
If you use a too-strong character, the program will assign you a set of characteristics more to its liking. But don't worry, you'll get your original stats back at the end.
Try to preserve the Power Pills in case the Seeker gets wrecked. For the same reason, rescue Threndor before confronting the Mystics.
The Life-Orb may not be where you expect it.
Let's begin the Walk-through:
This is another one of the "Life-Orb" series of Eamons that resulted from an NEUC contest held long ago. Your mission is to enter Zagora and recover Threndor Tokas' Life-Orb. Note the names of the secret allies and the passwords.
Follow your Seeker's advice and avoid the main gate. Go around back and enter through the sewer. You'll have to attack the grate to bust it open.
You might want to take a LOOK around the sewer as you pass. Follow your Seeker's advice and don't go past the overhead grate. Go up.
You meet Zarg. Smile. Pay close attention to what he says. The map can be rather confusing, but Zarg gives pretty good directions if you want to stay on mission and not do any random exploring.
The city map is roughly star-shaped with streets radiating from a central plaza. A rough layout:
- Temple is on Glory to the NW
- Blood Guard is on Assassins to the NE
- Mystics' Hall is on Triumphs to the E
- Vulgar Unicorn is on Merchants to the W
- The brothel is on Dreams to the SW
- The city jail is on Tears to the SE.
Before you get down to work on the Quest, go down the Avenue of Tears to the city jail. There you'll find some allies. Check the first floor, then upstairs, then the basement. Be sure to open the desk in the commander's office. LOOK around in the basement, too. Use the candle if you need light.
Go meet Zarg in the electronics shop. Smile. Pay close attention to what he says. No-rooms! A worthwhile upgrade. You can choose to pay Zarg or you can go get the treasure he wants. We will assume that you will want to save your money and buy him off with the treasures.
Can't find the Eyes of Rhatek? Did you LOOK in the Treasury Room where the eyeless statue is? Bust the box open.
Go meet Zarg in the Alley of Beggars. Smile. Answer his second question with "G" or "T", and he'll grab his payment. Pay close attention to what he says. Another Seeker upgrade. Combat capability! You can never have too many allies in combat! (Note: actually there is a minor bug that gives the Seeker combat capability when he gets the first PC board, but you need to do this in order to get the next board, which you really want!)
Get the PC board. GIVE it to the Seeker. Now you can scan for No-rooms!
When you get to the Vulgar Unicorn, go upstairs and go straight back to the rear bedroom. A woman! Morraine? Give the password. LOOK. Get the lamp and light it.
Go to the east bedroom and kill Mortan. Be sure to use a long enough name that you don't attack Morraine by mistake! LOOK. Open the saddlebags and get all the coins.
Go meet Zarg behind the brothel. Smile and give him his treasure. Pay attention to what he says. Yet another upgrade, and a really good one, too! Healing capability! You can only heal yourself though meditation which cannot be done during combat. This would be very good to have! The Mystics won't be pushovers. Get the board and GIVE it to the Seeker.
There's nothing in the brothel worth messing with. But if you do take a look around, don't drink Tamsin's wine!
Go to the Slavers Guild on the plaza. Bust the cabinet open and open the chest with the key. Get the ingots.
Go meet Zarg at the Vulgar Unicorn. Smile and give him the treasure. What'd he say? Threndor has been kidnapped! Get the board and GIVE it to the Seeker.
The Blood Guard barracks is on the Street of the Assassins. Go there and fight your way in. OK, you know that Threndor is here somewhere. Maybe in a No-room? Scan the place as you move about.
Be sure to LOOK in the office. You might find something that will be useful later on.
A No-room off the armory! Kill the guard, then consult with the Seeker. Of course, it's right,
Threndor needs his Life-Orb to survive. Leave Threndor for now.
Nothing much left to do now except confront the Mystics in their hall. Wait a minute. We haven't checked the Temple or jail for No-rooms yet.
You'll find a No-room in the Temple that contains a 2D5 sword named "Exeter".
And you'll find a No-room in the basement of the jail that contains the Life-Orb! The box opens with the hexagonal stone. Be ready for some trouble; there may be a traitor in your midst.
Go back and get Threndor, and give him his orb. He's not much of a fighter, but if the Seeker gets wrecked, you won't be able to rescue him.
OK, the going gets tough now. Time to check out the Guild of Mystics. Head over to the Avenue of Triumphs and fight your way in. This is the Mystic stronghold, so be sure to scan as you go.
A No-room off the Dream Room! Hmm. A pool. Examine it. A good Mystic! Swear vengeance. The gift from Harol is a set of Power capsules. These capsules will each make you invulnerable for the next 6 moves. Don't take a second pill when one is already active — it will kill you!
LOOK in the vault. Fight your way up, and up again. Xenon doesn't fight, but asks you to serve him. Don't do it! He's really tough, so take a power pill, and fight.
Break down the large door, and pass through. Oh no! This looks really bad. Better consult with Seeker for some advice. Call upon Rhadshurad by speaking his name.
Whew! That was close. (Mardak has a Hardiness of 200!) LOOK, and go down. Enter the magic gate. You won! The Orb is recovered! Threndor is rescued! Harol is avenged! You lived! It's Miller time.

EAG Eamon Utilities Disk
(DOS 3.3 ONLY)
Date Fixed: 2/28/96
Phil Moore sent in a very nifty menu program that has been added to the disk. There were also some mods to accommodate this program.
Phil noted that several of the programs don't unlock files that they write to, which can cause needless crashes. To repair that deficiency, add these lines:
Program: ARTIFACT MAINTENANCE
25 PRINT D$"UNLOCK EAMON.DESC": PRINT D$"UNLOCK EAMON.ARTIFACTS"
Program: CHANGE EAMON NAME
1050 PRINT D$"UNLOCK EAMON.NAME"
Program: REMOVE DUMMY ARTIFACTS
22 PRINT D$"UNLOCK EAMON.DESC": PRINT D$"UNLOCK EAMON.ARTIFACTS"
Program: DESC.EDIT

Problem: MAIN PGM is corrupted in the area of lines 25000-29000.
Fix: A new disk is required if you have this problem.
Eamon Reviews
#53 Feast of Carroll
by Dan & Jon Lilienkamp
Reviewed by Tom Zuchowski
MAIN PGM Version: 4.0
Extra Commands: ROTATE, KNIGHT, READ, DRINK
Deleted Commands: EXAMINE, no SAVE
Special Features: None
Playing Time: 1 hour
Reviewer Rating: 6.0 Average Rating: 5.7/3
Description: "Your and your friends spent last night together in the Main Hall celebrating the Feast of Carroll, the one day each year when all three of Eamon's moons are full.
"You must have enjoyed yourself a little more than you intended, because now you don't know where you are, and you can't remember how you got here. All that you know, for sure, is that you are in a very mysterious place!"
Comment: This is a fairly interesting and not too difficult foray into the worlds of Lewis Carroll and fairy tales in general. The bad guys are few and pretty easy. There are a couple of minor puzzles.
The little gimmicks are clever and funny, and overall I did enjoy the play. Read everything you can, and try your POWER spell when all else fails (and not before!), and you shouldn't have any real trouble. One item: the way the "Excalibur" code is written, there is only a one in four chance that you will be able to get the sword, and you only get one chance at it. If you don't get the sword, the KNIGHT command is inoperative. But don't worry if you don't get the sword; it's not a very big deal.
While I give this one a (4) for difficulty, the puzzles are subtle enough that they may be over the heads of very young Eamonauts.
#54 Crystal Mountain
by Ken Hoffman
Reviewed by Tom Zuchowski
MAIN PGM Version: 5.0
Extra Commands: LIGHT, PULL, OPEN, UNLOCK, DRINK, PUSH
Deleted Commands: None
Special Features: Cannot FLEE during combat
Playing Time: 1-2 hours
Reviewer Rating: 5.0
Description: "While reading this month's issue of Adventure Monthly, you come across an article about the legendary Crystal Kingdom. It gives the standard info. Location, probability of truth (73%), and legendary treasures: a black pearl necklace, a great diamond, and the Crystal Sword (legend says it will make the holder invincible).
"Since you are brave, daring, and broke!, you decide to search out Crystal Mountain, seat of power for the Crystal Kingdom. After much searching you find an entrance. Just as you enter you trip on a wire and there is a low rumble. Cave in!"
Comment: This is a largish 85-room dungeon with several small mazes, a couple of death traps, and several minor puzzles that revolve around the special command list. It has a good map and a fair number of spelling errors.
I enjoyed the mazes; they are the really bad sort with identical descriptions and names and totally mixed-up room connections, but they are only a few rooms each and not too difficult to solve with persistence. There is a good bit of special stuff involving such items as levers, keys, doors, cells, and buttons.
The mazes, a death trap or two, the modified FLEE command, and a very strong dragon run the difficulty up to about (7). Here are some hints: LIGHT turns the lantern on and off so you don't have to drop it; don't forget your POWER spell; the Crystal Sword is an exceptional magical weapon, but it does not make you invincible!
There is no Quest other than simple escape, but I suggest that you make your own by recovering the items listed in the introduction.
#57 The Manxome Foe
Reviewed by Tom Zuchowski
MAIN PGM Version: 5.0
Extra Commands: None
Deleted Commands: None
Playing Time: 20-30 min.
Reviewer Rating: 4.0 Average Rating: 5.5/2
Description: "As you step out of the Hall, a hansom cab pulls up. Soon after you are seated in the cab, you fall into a deep slumber. You awaken, in a strange room alone."
Comment: This is a somewhat strange Eamon. While I haven't read the poem personally, it appears to be based on "Jabberwocky". It has a lot of odd creatures. The map itself is rather mundane, although the room connections are often pretty mixed up and one-way, and exits are seldom named. About half of the map is simple in-one-side-and-out-the other rooms, and the rest almost constitutes an intermittent maze.
Your "quest" is to find an exit. I would guess that you probably won't see more than about 30 of the 50 rooms on a given playthrough. With a difficulty rating of (4), it is actually an easy play, although it may not be suitable for young Eamonauts because of the room connections.
#61 The Harpy Cloud
by Allan Porter
Reviewed by Tom Zuchowski
MAIN PGM Version: 5.0
Extra Commands: None
Deleted Commands: None
Special Features: Error recovery prevents Ctrl-C
Playing Time: 10-60 min.
Reviewer Rating: 4.0 Average Rating: 4.0/3
Description: "As you leave the Main Hall a dark Dwarf sidles up to you. He says, 'Would you like to visit a kingdom in the clouds?'"
Comment: This begins as a standard "Kill'n'Loot" scenario, but after a while I found myself more interested in finding an exit than anything else. The map is rather messy with lots of very similar room names, though you can't call it a maze, because the room descriptions are quite different. However, the room names don't even remotely resemble the descriptions, which makes mapping a difficult chore.
Much of the stuff was interesting and clever, but mapping got to be a real grind, greatly lowering my overall enjoyment, and a no-warning death trap didn't help. The exit is not marked either, which means that the game is over once you stumble through it, which can happen in 8 or 9 moves if you make all the right choices. There are no puzzles, and the bad guys aren't too bad, but the map bumps the difficulty up to a (6).
Hint: there are secret doors which LOOK will not find. There are hints, but to be safe you might want to just try all directions in every room.
#231 Keep of Skull Gorge
by Don Kellogg
Reviewed by Tom Zuchowski
MAIN PGM Version: 7.0
Extra Commands: None
Deleted Commands: None
Playing Time: 30-60 min.
Reviewer Rating: 4.0
Description: "You have been requested to find the famous Amulet of Bhaal. The amulet was made by the god's priests many years ago, making it the oldest remaining relic of the god and very valuable to them. The Priesthood of Bhaal will pay you very well to return it to them.
"You leave to find the amulet. It's going to be very hard due to the fact that an evil wizard has moved into the place you're going. Rumor has it he's building an army!"
Comment: The actual adventuring has very little to do with the intro. There is no Wizard and no army; I have no idea what that is doing there. This is your basic "hack'n'slash" Eamon, with exactly two locked doors and one secret passage. Just kill everyone who doesn't smile at you and read the descriptions, and you'll do fine.
I give it a (5) for difficulty. I might have given it a higher playability rating, but there are four no-warning death traps. By and large, you would be well-advised to ignore anything that isn't an honest stairway (hint).
There are a couple of doors that don't go anywhere valid, so I simply locked them. So don't worry about getting past any doors that you can't find the keys for.
