RETURN TO PIRATE'S ISLE

including complete solution (better late than never)

(Note: This article was originally published in the March 1988 issue of THE
COMPUTER VOICE, newsletter of the Southern California Computer group.  We have
the game on disk Lima disk 810A bootable from EA3.)

This was done for all the TIers who are fed up with this game.  The following
commands should be typed in exactly as they appear.  Remember to save your game
often (as we found out the hard way).  If you want to play the game without the
pictures press "Z".  To restore the pictures do the same.  I found no differences
between the disk and cartridge version of theis game, so I'll assume this solution
file will work with either of them, though it was tested on the disk version.
Good luck! 

Note: The alarm clock ringing is there to alert you that there is a part of the
ship not accessible from within the boat. Once you find this hidden part of the
boat and pick up the clock, it stops ringing.

unable to start the engine with a dead battery and no way to charge it.
