DEADLINE

Deadline was Infocom's 3rd game after ZORK I and II (and before ZORK III!),
and was written by Marc Blank, the co-author of the ZORK trilogy.

You are a detective who has to solve the case of a rich fella who it seems
committed suicide. You have 12 hours to interview everyone you can find and
deside who dunnit, but it would help if you find evidence supporting your case
before arresting the guy!

Difficulty level: EXPERT

Some special commands you should know:
ACCUSE (someone) OF (something)
ANALYZE (something)
ANALYZE (something) FOR (something specific)
ARREST (someone) -- This ends the game, so be sure!
ASK (someone) ABOUT (someone or something) 
(someone), TELL ME ABOUT (someone or something) -- same thing with the above!
EXAMINE (something) -- the most usual adventure command!
FINGERPRINT (something) -- same as ANALYZE (something) FOR FINGERPRINTS.
SEARCH (someone) FOR (something specific) -- for example search for a GUN!
SEARCH NEAR (something) -- this is stronger than EXAMINE (something)!
SHOW (something) TO (someone) -- show them something that might shock them!
(Hey, don't make dirty thoughts!)
SHOW ME (something) - ask someone to show YOU something or lead you someplace.
TIME -- or T for short: tells you what time it is.
WAIT FOR (someone or some amount of time) -- if anything exciting happens
(say, a dog pees all over your leg) waiting stops automatically.
WAIT UNTIL (time) 
WHAT'S WRONG? - an original command this one, lets you know what others think!
WHERE IS (someone or something) -- ask someone where is someone!

Before arresting someone, be sure that you have found his motive, the method
he followed, and that he had the opportunity to do the dirty deed.

EMULATOR NOTE: It is not recommented to play any Infocom game on CCS64, since
there is no way to turn off its 1541 emulation and the games load too slow.
On C64S, Vice, and PC64, though, any Infocom game will load instantly and you
will notice no delay for loading new text while playing, making the gameplay
more enjoyable!

That's all folks!
Best Regards
