Looks like i'm back to my old habit of looking at small (and mostly irrelevant) aspects of the game... So:

You might have noticed that trying to handle (press h key) any tree (regular trees, as in "you pass beneath a beautiful tree") makes the player actually shake the tree. The ensuing message is "You shake the tree. A few dead leaves are the sole fruit of your effort". I found out about this a long time ago, didn't pay much attention; now that i'm exploring the mysteries (?) behind the game (heh) i'm suddenly curious again.

Question: What's up? Anyone know if this was meant to have a specific use? I've tried this with a character with survival skill at 100, in case it had something to do with foraging or something, but I get the same results.

Let's see if someone can figure out the meaning of this?

I think there is a possibility of an apple falling down on your head, but I´m not sure.

Or maybe the tree comes to life as an Animated Tree...

The free apple would be nicer.

The "shake the tree" was a result from a RFE in adom.com long ago (thus no link here soz :) Maybe TB would add something to it in future versions ;)

Based on my memory the guys back there purposed these dropping:

Apple :)
Cats >.<
Amulets
Rings
Hanged man (Eek!)
An elf :))
