ABSTRACT

In biology, convergent evolution is the process by which unrelated organisms develop similar traits as a result of adapting to similar environmental conditions. Convergent evolution occurs frequently in nature. Hashing out a deal analogous to a custody agreement, Worth got to keep the computer for two weeks before turning it over to his friend for another fortnight. The goal of the game was to delve deep beneath stately Apple Manor and recover the fabled golden apple. Monster vulnerabilities and level layout added other layers of strategy. Worth continued probing and eventually reverse engineered Apple DOS, the operating system that managed the computer’s hardware functions. While few gamers remember Beneath Apple Manor, its influence should not go overlooked. Both the original and special edition versions of Beneath Apple Manor strived to cater to as many users as possible.
