Caves Of Ice
Marvin Bunker and Robert Tsuk
Marvin Bunker and Robert Tsuk
This award-winning game should provide hours of amusement. Originally written on the Apple, there are also versions here for VIC, 64, Atari, and PET/CBM.
Robert Tsuk invented a game called "QuintiMaze," wrote a version for the Apple, and won a prize in a BYTE magazine game contest - it was published in the September 1982 BYTE. It looked too intriguing to be limited to Apple owners, so I wrote a version called "Caves of Ice" which will run on all Commodore computers (VICs require 8K or more expansion memory). I contacted Robert Tsuk about submitting this version as a joint article to COMPUTE! where other Commodore computer owners could share it. He replied that he was converting it for the Atari. These games are the result of our joint efforts.
The Game Scenario
At the start you are somewhere in a five-story structure made entirely of ice. Each floor has 25 rooms in a five-by-five array. Carved into the walls of each room are one or more openings, doors to the north, south, east, west, up, or down. However, you can see only the doors available to you from your present vantage point. Only one door in the building opens to the outside - it may be in a wall, the roof, or the floor of the building. Your goal is to get out as fast as possible. You could freeze inside these caves of ice.
You can change which direction you are facing at any time - complete instructions are included in the program.
After finding your way out, you are given the option of trying the same maze and same starting point again to see if you can improve your time. Or, you can play again with a new random maze.
A room with five possible exits -only one of the rooms you
may encounter in "Caves of Ice." VIC version.
Strategy
To quote from Robert Tsuk's earlier article: "The strategy for Quinti-Maze is fairly simple; be methodical. Because all the rooms in the maze look similar, you could wander around forever without finding the exit. My favorite method is to travel in one direction as far as I can go, then I assume I'm at one of the outside walls and search there for an exit."
A Variation
Insert this line at the beginning of either Program 1 or 2:
1
X=RND(-π)
This initializes the random number generator with the same seed each
time you RUN, so you'll always start with the same maze. You can have
the sequence U, W, W, W, N, W, S, W committed to memory and amaze your
friends with how rapidly you can find your way out. The figure shows
the complete maze produced by this starting seed. Note: This seed
produces a different maze on the VIC.
Program Notes
In lines 1140 and 3005, the PRINT CHR$(7) statements produce beeps on the PET when you try to go through a solid wall and when you successfully find your way out. If you have a PET without the built-in beeper, but you do have the CB2 sound, you can replace these statements with the appropriate sequence of POKE statements to give the sound effects desired. VIC and 64 owners should replace the PRINT CHR$(7) with the proper POKEs to produce sounds on their computers if they desire this feature.
In the INPUT statement in line 2001, following the INSTRUCTIONS are three shifted spaces followed by three left cursors. This is my favorite way to avoid the infamous PET INPUT crash.
Program 1 is Caves of Ice for the VIC (with 8K or more expansion memory) and 64. The only changes required to RUN on PET/CBM models are in the keys which must be typed to produce the graphics in lines 120-151. Program 2 lists these changes for the PET. The graphics are not directly accessible from models with "business style" keyboards. Refer to your manuals for the equivalent CHR$ codes. Newer CBM models may also require the addition of a line such as:
5
PRINT CHR$(142)
to put them into graphics mode.

| Atari
And Apple Versions Robert Tsuk When I received Marv Bunker's letter, I agreed a version should be made available for Commodore owners. Also, as an Atari owner, I wanted to include a version for that computer, too. The lack of dimensioned string variables on the Atari made it tricky, but, as evidenced by Program 3, it was successfully adopted. If you find the game too challenging, the Atari and Apple versions have several features not found in the Commodore version which may be of assistance. If you type an * the program will tell you your location in the maze. You are given your X and Y coordinates (0-4) on the current level, and a value for A, which indicates which level (0-4) you are currently on. If you get really lost, you can find your location by typing the *, then a ?. The program will briefly display the X, Y, and A coordinates of the exit. But remember, using the ? is frowned upon unless you're really lost. As in the Commodore version, you move through the maze by typing the N, S, E, W, U, and D keys to specify the direction of movement. However, if you type F to change the direction you are facing, you must then type a number instead of a letter to specify the new direction you wish to face. You'll need to remember that N =1, S = 2, E = 3, and W=4. The Apple version of Caves of Ice (Program 4), the original Quinti-Maze, uses almost 48K. It includes a SAVE the game feature. Special attention must be paid to the first five lines and the data therein, as a mistake in the data will cause a crash in line 167. The Atari version uses just over 16K. Although it has no SAVE the game feature, it has some pretty flashy graphics and sound. |
