Pit Of Ignorance

A little man has fallen down a deep pit, and you must help him out by correctly answering a series of general knowledge questions.

This variant on the hangman theme has a good stock of questions, some of which are very tough indeed. They start off fairly simple while the little man is near the bottom of the pit, but when he gets to the top, oh boy! What was the name of the first dog to orbit the earth in a satellite??

With each correct answer, the figure clambers up another level. Incorrect answers loosen his grip and he falls down an indeterminate distance. If he falls too far he is fatally injured and you must start again.

Good for a laugh, but little else.
