Heeeelp!

Has anyone else tried the (I think) brilliant Hamlet text adventure?

I've gotten reasonably far - killed Polonius and Ophelia died - but I'm stuck. Anyone have suggestions?
(Relevant ones, preferably.)

Edited to add: I guess the author got sick of people e-mailing him, because he's added a "hints" button. With that help, I managed to finish!

I haven't gotten it to run. So... I take it that it's fun?

It seems to work better on Microsquish Explorer than Netscape.

Ah, yes; that does it.

Will I be eaten by a Grue?

Guess you'll have to find out. The landscape is significantly smaller than Zork, though... I was hoping you'd be able to wander through the library "in a maze of twisty little sentences, all alike." But no.
