Trying to find a Name of a Game.

Hi,
 Trying to find a name of an educational, adventure type game for some
one. Here is what he says about it.

The game I was looking for.. It was a graphic/text-adventure type, like
Sherwood Forest or Transylvania, where there was a drawn picture of the
area you were in in the top 3/4 or so of the screen, and the bottom 1/4
had about 4 lines of text there, where you would type commands. I
remember it was a bit of an educational type, because there was some
places where you could do some simple math to earn gold pieces in the
game. Actually, I'm sure it was an educational program, because it came
with a teacher's guide that had all the answers to the puzzles in the
game.

The story line was something like, you've crash landed on this island
and you have to find your way off. I remember there was a water bottle
that you had that showed up on the right(?) side of the screen, and
every time you moved the water level would go down by one line of
pixels. You could refill your bottle with water at a place that was
like S, E, E, E from the starting point. You couldn't die in the game,
if you screwed up or ran out of water, you'd pass out and wake up
somewhere back near the beginning.

Of course I don't remember the important things like what it was named
or who made it. We never actually owned any Apple ii variety of
computer, but my mom was a school teacher, so during the summers she
would borrow a IIe from the school, and this was one of the programs
that was brought home. Hmm that's all I can think of right now to
describe it.

Maybe some one will remember what the name is and I can relay that back
to him.

Take Care,
