Die heutige Sonntagswanderung führte mich schneller in die Höhle, für die ich auch gleich die Lampe mitge­nommen hatte.

Welcome to Adventure!!  Would you like instructions?
   NO
You are standing at the end of a road before a small brick building.
Around you is a forest.  A small stream flows out of the building and 
down a gully. 
   IN
You are inside a building, a well house for a large spring. 
There are some keys on the ground here. 
There is a shiny brass lamp nearby. 
There is food here. 
There is a bottle of water here.
   GET KEY
Ok
   GET LAMP
Ok
   OUT
You're at end of road again.
   DEPRESSION
You are in a 20-foot depression floored with bare dirt.  Set into the 
dirt is a strong steel grate mounted in concrete.  A dry streambed
leads into the depression.
The grate is locked.
   OPEN GRATE
The grate is now unlocked.
   IN
You are in a small chamber beneath a 3x3 steel grate to the surface.
A low crawl over cobbles leads inward to the west.
The grate is open.
   W
You are crawling over cobbles in a low passage.  There is a dim light 
at the east end of the passage. 
There is a small wicker cage discarded nearby.
   GET CAGE
Ok
   W
It is now pitch dark.  If you proceed you will likely fall into a pit.
   ON
Your lamp is now on.
You are in a room filled with debris washed in from the surface.
A low wide passage with cobbles becomes plugged with mud and debris 
here, but an awkward canyon leads upward and west.  A note on the wall
says 'MAGIC WORD XYZZY'.
A three foot black rod with a rusty star on an end lies nearby. 

Da steht ja ein bekanntes Zauberwort an der Wand. Und am Boden liegt ein Zauber­stab. Den werde ich nehmen und XYZZY sprechen.

   GET ROD
Ok
   XYZZY
You're inside building. 
There is food here. 
There is a bottle of water here.
   DROP CAGE

   DROP ROD

   SCORE
If you were to quit now, you would score  32 out of a possible 350.
Do you indeed wish to quit now? 
   NO
Ok

XYZZY hat mich nach Hause gebracht, doch für den Käfig und den Zauber­stab habe ich keinen einzigen Punkt bekommen. Offen­sicht­lich haben sie keinen Sammler­wert und sind für etwas anderes gut. Also nehme ich sie wieder mit.

   GET CAGE
Ok
   GET ROD
Ok
   XYZZY
You're in Debris Room.
   W
You are in an awkward sloping east/west canyon. 
   XYZZY
Nothing happens.
You are in an awkward sloping east/west canyon. 
   W
You are in a splendid chamber thirty feet high.  The walls are frozen 
rivers of orange stone.  An awkward canyon and a good passage exit
from east and west sides of the chamber.
A cheerful little bird is sitting here singing.

Mit XYZZY bin ich auch wieder zurück in die Höhle, weshalb ich demnächst nicht mehr durch das Gitter muß. Zunächst aber will ich den Vogel in den Käfig bekommen.

   GET BIRD
The bird was unafraid when you entered, but as you approach it becomes
disturbed and you cannot catch it.
   DROP CAGE
Ok

   GET BIRD
Ok

Na also, es geht doch. Der Vogel kann nur gefangen werden, wenn man keinen Zauber­stab in der Hand hat. Um ihn mitzu­nehmen, benö­tigt man natür­lich den Käfig.

   QUIT
Do you really want to quit now? 
   YES
Ok
You scored  32 out of a possible 350, using   34 turns.
You are obviously a Rank Amateur.  Better luck next time. 
To achieve the next higher rating, you need  4 more points.

Auch der Vogel samt Käfig hat keinen Punkt gebracht, denn 32 hatte ich schon zu Beginn. Das sind zwar sieben mehr als gestern, doch nur weil ich keine Anlei­tung (5 Punkte) und keinen Hinweis (2 Punkte) in Anspruch genommen habe.
