I just be about to play the Classic game, and just be

Welcome to Adventure!! Would you

Somewhere nearby is Colossal Cave, where others have found fortunes in treasure and gold,
though it is rumored that some who enter are never seen again. Magic is said to work in
the cave. I will be your eyes and hands. Direct me with commands of 1 or 2 words. I should
warn you that I look at only the first five letters of each word, so you'll have to enter
"northeast" as "ne" to distinguish it from "north". (Should
you get stuck, type "help" for some general hints. For information on how to end
your adventure, etc., type "info".)

current program were added by Don Woods. Address complaints about the UNIX version to Jim

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.
