ONCE AND FUTURE, FREEWARE EDITION This freeware edition of Once and Future was recompiled and packaged for Internet distribution by N.K. Guy on behalf of the author. The icon for the Macintosh edition was created by Ivan Cockrum. Aside from the changes to the licensing terms and copyright information this version is identical to the version distributed commercially by Cascade Mountain Publishing. As they used to say in paperback reprints of novels, not one word has been omitted! Please note that although it remains copyrighted, it is now a free program and is not supported in any way. If you need help or hints you may want to check out the Usenet newsgroup rec.games.int-fiction. There's a community of interactive fiction enthusiasts who hang out there who'll be happy to help. This archive contains a copy of the game only. It does not contain a copy of the interpreter software required to play it.
