This is a walkthrough for the 550-point game.  It doesn't necessarily aim to
give a 'best' solution, and misses out some important features and locations.
In particular, the dwarves and pirate are 'turned off' at a cost of 5 points, 
and you don't get to see the Vending Machine maze at all.

Now to enter the cave.  Strictly speaking, we should open up the grate using
the keys, but we cheat by using a magic word learnt from previous games.

In Bird Chamber

Now for the first real puzzle - how to take the bird without scaring it.
The problem is the rod.  (In this game version it is enough to drop the
rod.  In the 551-point version, however, it has to be left in another
room).

Oh-oh!  That pesky snake is rather a nuisance, but your little friend

Now we'll collect the immediately accessible treasures ...

   You see some rare coins here!

On the face of it, the dragon is even more pesky than the snake.  But it
has an Achilles heel, so to speak ...

whoops - our hands are full.  Let's now see what the mushroom will do for
us.  In contrast to the 551-point game, it will increase your strength and
carrying capacity:

On East Bank of Fissure

Strictly speaking, you don't need to get past the fissure, but it's
useful if you do:
>wave rod
(Note that this is not the only use of the rod in the 550-point version.)

West Side of Fissure
>take diamonds

While we're still enjoying the effects of the mushroom, let's also get hold
of the pirate's chest.  (In a normal game you can only do this after 
you've seen the pirate.  Once you have found his chest, he'll stop stealing
your treasures!)  Note that you can also have the dwarves' axe in NODWARVES
mode using the special command PURLOIN AXE.
