Lethe Flow Phoenix: a Flight of Fantasy (release 1, August 1995) Hi! This is my first game, written in TADS (The Text Adventure Development System). To play it, you will need at least version 2.2 of the TADS run-time interpreter, available from ftp.gmd.de in the if-archive/programming/tads directory. There are two versions of this game available there. "lethe.zip" uses the file i/o features available in TADS 2.2 to read and write to a file in which it will save options from game to game, and the other one ("lth-noio.zip") has been compiled without file i/o. The one with file i/o is rather more convenient, so you should try and use that first. If it doesn't work on your system (and I've had at least one person not be able to use it), you should get the other game file without file i/o and try that. If you use the version with file i/o, you must have the file "lethe.cfg" in the same directory as the "lethe.gam" file, or the game will become quite confused. More help is available in game. New users should type "SETUP" and "HELP" after starting the game. ...Enjoy! -- Dan Shiovitz (scythe@u.washington.edu) August 30th, 1995
