W: See your arms, shield and armor. C: See stones you got. T: See other items you got. L: Load the game. Y: Yes. N: No.
S: Save the game.(Available only in the town or the castle. Stones and other items won't be saved, so you must collect them again.)
*Each key must be entered in uppercase by pressing the CAPS key in advance.
The game:
Your objective is to find out the cause of the strange feeling coming from underground in this country.The 1st file:
After modified the line #110 as below, the second file would be loaded automatically.
If you modify the code as described above, each checksum will change as follows (using version 3.1 coded by the "MSX•FAN" team).

Sorry if there are any typos, however, I have tested my data, including the ending, and had no problems.
The 2nd file named "ATULESS2.BAS":
Correct the author's typos.
In addition, I'm strongly recommend to modify following lines.

Original file name was "A:atu", but we believe that an extension is necessary.
"ATULESS" string should be also included, not only "atu". I'm assuming that we're managing a huge amount of MSX games' files, though.
If you modify the code as described above, each checksum will change as follows (using version 3.1 coded by the "MSX•FAN" team).

Sorry if there are any typos, however, I have tested my data, including the ending, and had no problems.
My suggestions for English version:
Sorry, several lines of dialogue by NPCs have been omitted to avoid "Out of string space" error.(By the way, "CLEAR2000" causes "Out of memory" error even if your MSX's RAM is around 25KB.)
First, delete the line #2340 (it's unnecessary). Then modify these lines as below.

Next, type following lines for the 2nd file!

Tips:
• After rescuing a boy named Lopo, it strongly recommends to head to the dungeon again and look for an old man who Lopo saw.• There are invisible switches on the floor of the dungeon. Step on them to open the way.
• Once you get the 3rd stone, you will not be able to return to the town and level up.
So make sure you level up enough and save the game before you get the 3rd stone.
Joystick support:
"STICK(0)" is found in the line #90. The quickest way is to simply replace each "0" with "1".In addition, it recommends you to modify following lines.

Now you can use Trigger 1 and Trigger 2 instead of "Y" & "N" keys.
You don't have to press Return key to skip each message anymore. (You need Return key when enter your name yet, though!)
SNES+AD Adapter users have to use MSXAdvance's virtual keyboard for C, M, T, W and "1"~"4" keys.
To begin with, you have to press the CAPS key when entering your name (and keep capitalizing it thereafter)
and the Return key after entering your name, but you can use the virtual keyboard for those as well.
