====== Wishbringer ====== Wishbringer is not set in the Zork universe, and is labelled "Interactive Fantasy for Beginners" when you start the game. This suggests to me that it should be a fairly easy game. The Wishbringer itself is a magical stone, with which you can wish for seven different things. In order to get a wish granted, you also need to have a specific object associated with that wish. The objects and the wishes they are associated with are explained in the documentation which came with the game. The game has a clock in its status line (instead of a running score, which many other games do). The clock starts at 3:00 in the afternoon, and you should find out fairly early in the game that The Olde Magick Shoppe closes at 5:00pm. Each move adds one minute to the time, except for "wait", which adds 3 minutes. ===== Things ===== I've found the following things so far: ^ Item ^ Points ^ Purpose ^ | Blanket | 3 + 3 | Y | | Bone | 1 | Y | | Bottle | | | | Can | 3 | Y | | Candle | | Y | | Conch Shell | | | | Envelope | 5 + 5 | N | | Fridge | | Y | | Horseshoe | | | | Pelican | | | | Platypus | | | | Purple Note | | | | Rattlesnake | - | Y | | Umbrella | - | Y | | Vulture | | | | Worm | 3 | | ===== Wishes ===== The Wishbringer itself is a stone which can grant seven different wishes.
