- This is the source code for the original Crowther and Woods Colossal Cave
- Adventure, 350 point verion, in PDP-10 FORTRAN. There have been many ports
- of this, in both FORTRAN and C, but all of them can be traced back to this
- version.
- A notable feature of this version which made it into few of the ports is the
- concept of "cave hours". Since the PDP-10 was a timesharing system, it was
- often considered desirable to prevent people from playing games during
- business hours. The game has a "wizard mode" which allows the system
- administrator to set the hours and optionally allow short demo games during
- the off hours.
- There is probably no point in trying to compile this code on anything other
- than a PDP-10, because it depends on string packing of five characters per
- word of memory.
