Actually, yes, this was the experience I was recalling... it was 1995, not 1993, and it was the 'Turbo' version of Journeyman Project, which came in a CD pack bundled with Windows 95 by Packard Bell (a surprisingly large compilation of software to bundle with such a computer at the time. Man, it was a golden age of progress in the PC world back then). Since it wasn't the retail version of the game, it did not come with the original instructions; instead they buried the door access code and some other numerical codes you needed during the game in a bundled instruction book for the CD box set. [0](the little teal booklet in this photo) No one ever knew to look in there, because it doesn't appear to be branded to have anything to do with the game.

There are entire sects of people on the internet that share this incredibly frustrating memory from their childhood. [1]

That's really interesting- I wish I could go back 30 years and verify that- I am a bit skeptical to be honest, as a young sponge with my first computer I was reading everything available to me- which wasn't much, a book on windows, and the manuals that it came with. But maybe I missed it.

That booklet doesn't appear to be available online anywhere :(.
