JailPRISON CELL. Transition to a close-up of your face as aprison door slams on it. To quote from the text available byclicking on the Info button: “The heroes of Greek mythologywere by no means perfect. Often they did things for whichthey ought to have been thrown in jail. Such was the casewhen Theseus (THEE-see-us) visited the Amazons. These weremythological warrior women who lived on the shores of theBlack Sea. The Amazons were renowned horseback riders andespecially skilled with the bow. They lived apart from menand only met with them upon occasion to produce childrenfor their tribe. Some say that Theseus had encountered theAmazons before, in the company of his cousin Heracles (HURa-kleez;Roman name: Hercules). Heracles had been challenged tobring back the belt of the Amazon queen. The queen, for allher reputation of man-hating, had willingly given it to him.But the goddess Hera (HEE-ruh), who hated Heracles, stirredup trouble. A great battle ensued in which many Amazonswere killed. Now Theseus visited the Amazons on his own.Their leader, fearless and hospitable, came aboard his shipwith a gift. Theseus immediately put to sea and kidnappedher. Perhaps if he had been thrown in jail for this crime, hewould have shown his customary resourcefulness. Lackingthe physical strength, he would have cast about for some toolor implement to break down the door to his cell. Or, failingthat, he would have looked for a weak point.”Clicking on the bucket causes you to walk over and kick it; afew flies swarm out, and you put your hand over your nosebecause something stinks.

Clicking on a ray oflight coming from a tiny hole in the wall causes you to walkover, look at it, and then walk back.Clicking on the bench causes you to pick it up again. If youthen click on the hole in the wall, you hit it with the benchand it enlarges. Repeat procedure six times: the hole growslarger each time. Once the hole is big enough, you walkthrough it and there’s a transition to the next scene.PondBEAUTIFUL LANDSCAPE. Water is a precious commodityin modern Greece, just as it was in ancient times. If the hot,dry climate of summer does not give way to winter rains,the crops fail and all suffer. Such water as there is must beshared between man and beast.This is the scene that you see through the chink in the wallof the Jail (page 18) and then escape into.
