Hunt The Wumpus
I have just finished a text-based version of the classic computer game Hunt The Wumpus! It currently features three different mazes, Glider, Arrow, and Octahedron, each with 16 rooms. The objective is deceptively simple; all you have to do is deduce the location of the evil monster the Wumpus, and then shoot him with your arrow, but if you enter his room, he will enjoy a tasty meal with you as the main course.
It looks complicated, but if you read the rules, its pretty simple to pick up. I hope you enjoy playing it! 
Play it now!

Re: Hunt The Wumpus
Coming soon in version 1.1:
- Extended level selection:
Level 1 - Double Diamond (originally Octahedron)
Level 2 - Star Crescent
Level 3 - Glider
Level 4 - Four Grids
Level 5 - Arrow
Level 6 - Cube and Rectangle
- Level Editor, build your own mazes and play Wumpus on them!
- Replay setup, after play you can retry with the same starting position, and location of obstacles.
- Single Pitfall mode, when activated, removes one of the two pitfalls, for an easier game. This also makes the maze less dense.
All of this is expected to be out by Friday!
