Voodoo Castle

A little history regarding the fourth adventure in the Scott Adams' series is that it was actually written in 1980 by his wife Alexis. It's labelled as having a 'moderate' difficulty level but it's very, very difficult due to the parser limitations. The best advice I can give as you follow this walkthrough is not to panic as the testtubes explode. There are no random mazes or elements in this adventure by the way.

There are no treasures in Voodoo Castle adventure.
