- ===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
-
- You are Captain Nevarro of the Pirate Ship Odyssey, searching the rich
- waters of the Andorian Sea for ancient sunken treasure. Battle dangerous
- sea creatures and fierce pirates who will attempt to send your ship to a
- watery grave. Strengthen your vessel by finding ammunition dumps on
- nearby islands. Avoid the force of the swirling whirlpools and drifting
- icebergs, and beware the haunted ghost ship, which is rumored to have
- caused many crewmen to leap to their deaths in sheer terror. If you
- think you can collect all ten ancient treasures while outwitting the
- dangers of the deep, then man your vessel and sail on in search of
- Pirate's Plunder.
