  > look at your surroundings
  Considering how important this place is for the future of all fishkind, you are stunned by how little has been done to make it look significant. A lick of paint, although distasteful for the fish licking it on, wouldn't have gone amiss. The only exit is southwest.
  The device almost fills the room, looking like an aquarium filled with multi-coloured gravel.

  Some serious anomalies have arisen in the last batch of data. Someone is tampering with the figures and The Project! All staff are advised to remain vigilant regarding all suspicious data and misuse of computer time. Let's nip this problem in the bud, boys.

  Store notes: The Stream Regulator has been stolen. This is serious. The Project will fail if we don't replace it. At present, we haven't located any replacement components. Anyone who can find them will be a hero. Here's a list of what's needed:
  Filter.
  Photon bridge - Dr. Salmon worked on this, he may know its whereabouts. Focus wheel - stolen days ago.
  Tuned Crystal - There's an untuned one in the museum but they won't let us near it.
  We also need a case to keep everything stable.

  Shutdown failed. The Project activated.
  Sensors detect Stream Regulator sabotaged. This will cause rapid water evaporation. Hydropolis in immediate danger. Red alert. Evacuate! Evacuate!
  
  All the water gets sucked towards the Device. You try swimming for it, but, with no water, that's more than a little difficult. Suddenly, the door caves in under pressure from water outside and a huge wave slams your puny body against the far wall. Laboratory (at the Project terminal)
  This lab is exceptionally clean. Dr. Roach must be remarkably fastidious. The water is constantly decontaminated and recycled to protect The Project equipment and your terminal from damage by grit, fluff and dirt. Exits are northeast, southeast and west through the metal door to the corridor.
  Goldfish Bowl
  A tingle runs up and down your scales here. It's definitely not your vacation bowl. True, it does have gravel, ant eggs and pondweed, but then so has every goldfish bowl. The difference is you can see out of this bowl and it doesn't have a tacky plastic castle. It looks like you're in a computer room of some kind, with terminals lining the walls.

  Project Room
  Considering how important this place is for the future of all fishkind, you are stunned by how little has been done to make it look significant. A lick of paint, although distasteful for the fish licking it on, wouldn't have gone amiss. The only exit is southwest.
  The device almost fills the room, looking like an aquarium filled with multi-coloured gravel.
  
  > unscrew the lok screw with the hyperdriver
  The hyperdriver grips and turns the Lokscrew(TM) in that cunning way that only hyperdrivers can. The Lokscrew(TM) is easily removed.
  
  > examine the accelerator
  The stream accelerator accelerates particles gathered by the main Project machine.
  
  > Go west
  Windows line the north wall of this corridor which continues east and west. They look out onto the quad, and stream light on to an archway which leads south to the library.
  "On your marks, get set, GO!" Three pairs of students, tied together come rushing past you. It's a two-tail race, obviously a ploy to raise money for rag week. Then hordes of students swim by, rattling collecting tins. It's a good job they don't take Fisa. They swim off.
  
  > check your inventory
  You are carrying a fishofax, a tatty card, a new card, a travel pass, a screwdriver, a hyperdriver, a lok screw, a stream accelerator, a crystal, a film and a sachet.
  You are wearing a watch, some dark glasses and some ear-plugs.
  
  > turn on the tuna
  There is a ringing sound which dies away after about twenty seconds.
  
  > ask Chub about the case
  Ernest Chub says, "It's a lovely antique I found at the second hand shop. Buried under a pile of rubbish it was. The proprietor has no sense of value."
  
  > ask Chub about the Filter
  Ernest Chub says, "Your mind works in such an amazing way sir. I really don't know how you think of such things."
  
  > ask Tench about the Filter
  Simon Tench says, "Roachie baby, you're really on form. What a concept!"
  
  > ask Tench about the photon bridge
  Simon Tench says, "The photon bridge? Too far out for me fish."
  
  > Inventory
  You are carrying a fishofax, a tatty card, a new card, a travel pass, a screwdriver, a hyperdriver, a lok screw, a stream accelerator, a tuned crystal, a film and a sachet.
  You are wearing a watch, some dark glasses and some ear-plugs.
  
  > examine the film
  The film is an original copy of "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes". It's more of a vegetable video than a fruity film now you think about it.
  
  > look at the accelerator
  The stream accelerator accelerates particles gathered by the main Project machine.
  
  > Go north
  Behind a counter stands an assistant, ready to sell you anything in the shop. Many racks are filled with exciting jackets, a fashionable accessory in Hydropolis at the moment. You can leave the shop by going south.
  
  > Go north
  You dart across Dace Road while nobody's looking.
  Second Hand Shop
  This shop is run by a cool catfish of many talents, most of them illegal, who goes by the name of Steve. Steve is a fish who could sell stripes to tiger sharks, but would rather sell them his grandmother - if he hasn't already. The shop has a bad reputation. It normally sells "fins what have fallen off the back of a submarine" if you get my drift. The exit from this den of low morals and high prices is to the south.
  You recognise the fishton.
  There is a radio case here.
  
  > put Crystal in the case
  "Watch it," shouts Steve, "that's sold."
