True enough!

[Description of hacking the "nam" file deleted.]

On the disk I have the "nam" file is encoded, so it's not easy to figure
out what to change. The disk is labeled "Copyright 1987 KINGSOFT" and
says it's made in West Germany (of course the floppy itself says "made
in Japan :-). 

It looks like Kingsoft decided to make life tougher for would-be
cheaters. It would be nice if you could get a peek at the higher levels,
but at least Emerald Mine doesn't make you start from level 0 every
time!

If you like puzzle-action games like Loderunner, get this one!
