About Hunt the Wumpus 2
This version is ad free. After creating the original "Hunt the Wumpus" in 1972, Gregory Yob (June 18, 1945 - October 13, 2005) decided that it would get a bit boring after a few thousand games, so he created "Hunt the Wumpus 2" sometime between 1974 and 1976 to extend the fun. This is a faithful re-creation of that version, again with an adaption to use input methods more suited to Android based phones and tablets. As a re-creation, it is entirely text based.
While keeping the same logic where each room in the cave connects to 3 others, the same hazards (Super bats - in 2 caves - that can pick you up and drop you anywhere at random and bottomless pits - in 2 caves - which mean instant death if either of these rooms was entered), and the same weapon (a bow with 5 crooked arrows), Gregory came up with 5 new maps to add to the original dodecahedron and added the ability to allow a player to enter his/her own map. This resulted in a game that offered some new challenges while following the same basic rules as the original.
By applying logic and exercising care, it is possible to win the game but it requires that the player work out the details of the map, including the room numbering. Some of the maps are much more difficult and make it much harder to win. See our web site for more information and details on the new maps.
What's new:
- this release includes a bug fix for Cave 3 - Hex Map. There was an error that caused the app to immediately give an error when this cave was selected.
See the developer's web site (http://www.cyberspyder.com/Android/wumpus2.html) for more details.
