+Welcome to the game of Hunt the Wumpus.
+
+The Wumpus typically lives in a cave of twenty rooms, with each room having
+three tunnels connecting it to other rooms in the cavern. Caves may vary,
+however, depending on options specified when starting the game.
+
+The game has the following hazards for intrepid adventurers to wind their
+way through:
+
+ Pits -- If you fall into one of the bottomless pits, you find yourself
+ slung back out on the far side of the Earth and in very poor
+ shape to continue your quest since you're dead.
+
+ Bats -- As with any other cave, the Wumpus cave has bats in residence.
+ These are a bit more potent, however, and if you stumble into
+ one of their rooms they will rush up and carry you elsewhere in
+ the cave.
+
+ Wumpus -- If you happen to walk into the room the Wumpus is in you'll find
+ that he has quite an appetite for young adventurous humans! Not
+ recommended.
+
+The Wumpus, by the way, is not bothered by the hazards since he has sucker
+feet and is too big for a bat to lift. If you try to shoot him and miss,
+there's also a chance that he'll up and move himself into another cave,
+though by nature the Wumpus is a sedentary creature.
+
+Each turn you may either move or shoot a crooked arrow. Moving is done
+simply by specifying "m" for move and the number of the room that you'd
+like to move down a tunnel towards. Shooting is done similarly; indicate
+that you'd like to shoot one of your magic arrows with an "s" for shoot,
+then list a set of connected room numbers through which the deadly shaft
+should fly!
+
+If your path for the arrow is incorrect, however, it will flail about in
+the room it can't understand and randomly pick a tunnel to continue
+through. You might just end up shooting yourself in the foot if you're
+not careful! On the other hand, if you shoot the Wumpus you've WON!
+
+Good luck.
