The Wumpus, a mythical creature which no man has seen before, lives in a cavern of 20 rooms made of a squashed dodecahedron. Each room connects to 3 other rooms.

Your mission is to deduce which room the Wumpus is sleeping in (it usually sleeps), and shoot it with an arrow. You have 5 arrows. You fire an arrow by inputting '0' when prompted 'MOVE TO?'. You can then shoot in up to 5 rooms. The rooms must be joined to each other, or you can ricochet and be killed.
