The greatest Mechanist in the galaxy. You. A Yi artifact of
unimaginable proportions. It.

And now it lies within your grasp.

Again.

Getting a second chance at it is quite good luck.
Being closely watched by someone--her--is not.


THE WEAPON is a short puzzle game, roughly annual-comp-sized.

Included in the game package are a z-machine "z5" game file and
the front page of the 35933.11.14 edition of the Centauri Star
newspaper, provided in both HTML and plain text formats. The
game includes complete online hints.

Look for 'weapon.zip' in the if-archive on ftp.gmd.de in the
incoming or zcode directories; it is a standard "zip" format
archive file.
