I loved Terminus! But I was confused for a while by the Instructions in KernelFiles. The game text reads as follows:
`>cd ..
You have moved to KernelFiles. The KernelFiles hold the sudo-secret (no, not
pseudo). You'd better read the Instructions.

You've learned how to make use of your friend grep I see. If you haven't it might be
wise for you to go back to the Library again to do some reading. Because here,
you'll need to use him to help you. Here is your task:
There are a lot of items in the MoreKernelFiles room and one of them contains the
sudo password. This password is very powerful password that lets you do absolutely
anything in the world. It lets you cast a spell on any item that is protected in any
way. You know the password is contained in one of these .txt items. You know that it
appears on a line that says the word: 'password='. You should find it with grep's
help. Then you'll need to use the sudo spell to find Paradise. To do this, just Type
'sudo' before the command you want to run, like so: 'sudo cp ITEM_A ITEM_B'. You
will then be prompted for the sudo password. Type the password, and the spell that
comes after sudo will be cast. If you open the Certificate in Paradise with sudo,
you will have truly found Paradise.`
The text above suggests (to my mind) that the solution is sudo mkdir Paradise, which the game doesn't permit. I finally looked at the Certificate itself, which gave me the key to finishing the game:
>less Certificate You must read the Certificate with the sudo password.
Oh.
>sudo less Certificate Password: You have correctly entered the password. You are now in Paradise. Take a look around, and congratulations.
I would suggest adding the words and the Certificate to the text that appears when you enter KernelFiles. The updated flavor text would read as follows:
You have moved to KernelFiles. The KernelFiles hold the sudo-secret (no, not pseudo). You'd better read the Instructions and the Certificate.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
