This is a step by step solution to CRYPT OF MEDEA by SIR-TECH, an
old Apple adventure but well done. I hope that it will take you
through the game to a successful conclusion. Words with capital
letters can be abbreviated by the capital letters. The parser looks
for four letter words which can save some typing. Save the game often
because a wrong step will kill you. For example, you will die when
you swing on the rope if you are carrying too. Going East from the
lab with the table without the rod will also kill you. Also there
are things you can do which I don't mention in the solution which
will get you killed. They are fun to try but not without a save game.

the sound off with control s. Timing is crucial. You must be prepared
to enter the next three commands quickly. The timing is crucial and
regular Apple II speed necessary - normal speed on a GS and will work.
Light bomb, drop bomb, South, North, North, use axe, North, Up. You are
done - the game records 70 experience points here. I don't think that
there are any more.
