Zork II

Walkthrough by Bruce A. Smith

Continuing in the tradition of Zork I, Zork II has more treasures to find and collect. As if that weren't enough, you have to contend with that pesky Wizard of Frobozz, who seems bent on interfering with whatever you do. If you're persistent, you'll get your revenge.

Note: The wizard appears at random, and there are times when the spells he casts on you can have fatal effects. At other times, they are merely inconvenient, causing you to drop your possessions or make you lose control of which direction you are going. Save the game often so you can restore if the wizard causes you too much trouble.
