Interactive graphic adventure in similar format to Lord's of Midnight.

This poke allows you unlimited access and the freedom to leave the buildings even if the owners would far rather you stayed. If you want to use it, type it in, Save it off to tape, Run it and play the game tape from the start. If the message "DATA ERROR" occurs, then you'll have to check your typing 'cos somewhere in there, there will be a typing error. Don't worry if there are no stripy lines in the border while you are loading, it'll just stay blue - but the game is going in, honest!

This hack does not work. I carefully checked everything twice over, and I can find no errors I may of introduced, so Your Sinclair or the publishers have messed it up with a typing error. There is a mistake in one of the data lines, because the checksum for all the data lines should be 13676, but all the data lines only compute to a checksum of 12752, so you will be greeted by the dreaded DATA ERROR message. This hack Your Sinclair never printed any correction for.
