The Exodus

The Exodus is a two part graphical text adventure based on the Holy Scriptures where you play the role of Moses. The first part starts at the moment that Moses has completed his education at the Palace. Bored with all things, he wants to see how the Hebrew slaves are doing. In the second part, Moses has to bring the people to Sinai and then to the Promised Land.

To get anywhere in the game, one or two-word commands need to be entered. To navigate your way through the locations in the game you uses the abbreviated commands 'n', 's', 'e' and 'w'. Type 'look' and it will give another description of your current spot. 'inv' tells you what you have in your possession. With 'take' or 'get' you get an object in your possession and 'drop' to remove something from your possession. 'pray' is a 'help' like function and gives sometimes a clue.

Other two-word commands are also recognized by the game (eg: 'drink', 'lift', 'read', 'throw', leave', 'kill', 'strike', 'read', 'climb' and 'follow').

There is an option to save your current game progress and type 'quit' to stop the game.
