Snowball walkthrough (Apple II - Level 9 Computing/Rainbird)
Snowball (http://www.mobygames.com/game/snowball) was a graphics adventure game created by Level 9 Computing and published by Rainbird in 1986 for the Apple ][. It is the first part of the Silicon Dreams trilogy. The player plays Kim Kimberley, who is traveling on spaceship Snowball towards planet Eden. She is awaken from hibernation because of a sabotage on the ship, causing it to travel towards the Sun. Kim must stop the saboteur and save the ship from destruction. Hope you enjoy the walkthrough!
Like other adventure games from Level 9 Computing, this game uses an interpreted language called A-code (http://ftp.ifarchive.org/if-archive/level9/info/Level9_Facts.txt) that allows Level 9 Computing to port their games to multiple platforms.
The long play is done by Smartadventurer, a program that I wrote to automate the playing for vintage Apple ][ games. You can follow the project here: https://vinniethelung.wordpress.com/tag/smartadventurer/
