Worlds Apart: An Interactive Fugue
By Suzanne Britton (worldsapart@ironphoenix.org)
Version 3.0

Getting Started

This is a TADS game, and therefore requires a TADS or HTML TADS interpreter.
Specifically, it requires an up-to-date (2.5.7 or better) interpreter; it may
run with an older interpreter but will probably behave strangely. If you have
a computer running Windows, you can obtain a self-contained executable of this
game (bundled with HTML TADS) by visiting the Worlds Apart homepage at
http://ironphoenix.org/worlds/ .

Otherwise, you'll need to obtain an interpreter before playing the game. Check
the TADS Page at https://www.tads.org/ for advice on how to obtain and install
the right interpreter for your system.

If the game detects an HTML TADS interpreter, it will use HTML codes for
fonts, colors, better screen formatting., etc. This is not required, but I
think it enhances the game a little. If you are not using HTML TADS, you
should set your display to use a fixed-width font if you can. Otherwise,
formatting will look odd in a few places.

If Interactive Fiction is a new thing to you, or you just want to refresh your
memory, you can get some general playing instructions within the game by
typing INSTRUCTIONS. Specific information on Worlds Apart is available by
typing ABOUT, and hints are available via the HINT command.
