Welcome to the eighth Scott Adams' walkthrough in the month that EUG finally got hold of the Official Scott Adams' hintbook which contains coded hints and tips for the official fourteen Scott Adams' adventures. Fourteen? Here at EUG there are only thirteen: nine is Ghost Town, ten is Savage Island 1, eleven Savage Island 2, twelve Golden Voyage and thirteen Sorceror Of Claymorgue Castle. Does anyone have any information on this fourteenth adventure? The book, rather unhelpfully, doesn't give it a name although it is not, I repeat, not Buckaroo Banzai (a bugged adventure fifteen that appeared only on the Scott Adams Scoops compilation.
And, while we're on the subject, does anyone out there have a unbugged copy of Buckaroo Banzai? Our copy was committed to a home for the terminally ill adventures a long time ago...
