+advent (Colossal Cave Adventure, the 1995 430-point version)
+
+This is the last descendent of the original 1976 Colossal Cave Adventure
+worked on by the original authors - Crowther & Woods. It has sometimes
+been known as Adventure 2.5. The original PDP-10 name 'advent' is used
+to avoid collision with the bsd-games version.
+
+This code is a forward-port of the Crowther/Woods Adventure 2.5 from 1995,
+last version in the main line of Colossal Cave Adventure development
+written by the original authors. The authors have given permission and
+encouragement for this release. The file history.txt contains a more
+detailed history of this game and its ancestors.
