Triffids! Triffids!
I'm not sure where this game was played but as you can tell from the clues it was written for a specific location. You will have to change them for your own use!
Story
There has been a catastrophe involving contaminated water, which caused certain house-plants to develop abnormally. All towns are now over run and under their control!!
You have managed to escape to this isolated spot, where you have been living on the food you managed to salvage on the way here. Soon this will be finished. You expect to be able to poach food from the countryside, but you have no salt. This will be vital to preserve food.
You have been chosen to make this journey to the .....to find salt and bring it back to the settlement. But there are preparations to make before you go.
