In the game's main menu, you can play the Introduction (followed by creating a new character and starting a new game), start a new hero (without viewing the introduction), or Continue your Quest (restore a saved game). For fun, right-click the scorpion to "find the first bug" in the game.

Pause Game (CTRL-P)
Repeat (F3 or Spacebar): repeat the previous command

You can also inquire about the time and day it is (CTRL-T), print "Ask about" (CTRL-A) or "Look at" (CTRL-L) in the command line. Note that you can also look at people or objects by right-clicking the mouse on it.
