NORD AND BERT COULDN'T MAKE HEAD OR TAIL OF IT

Nord & Bert was Infocom's 28th game and was written by Jeff O'Neil, the author
of Ballyhoo.

Eh, I don't know really what to write for the plot of this one...hmm...it is
composed of eight scenarios that you should complete. Ehm, the big picture is
that you are in the town of Punster which suffers from the missuse of
language by its citizens and...oh well, here's how the scenarios are called:

1. Go to the Shopping Bizarre
2. Play Jacks
3. Buy the Farm
4. Eat your Words
5. Act the Part
6. Visit the Manor of Speaking
7. Shake a Tower
8. Meet the Mayor

The good news is that this was the first Infocom release to have an online
hintbook! Just type HINT from inside of a scenario and you'll get there!

This was also the first game that loads both on C64 and on C128 (only
in 80-column mode like the previous 3 sole-C128 games) and the first C64
Infocom game to occupy two disk sides.

EMULATOR NOTE: It is not recommended 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
much more enjoyable!

ALSO REMEMBER to answer NO at the Loading-from-a-1541-or-a-1571 question, in
order to maintain high-speed emulator loading!

Well, that's all!
Best Regards
Dimitris
