Grenade - Watch your fingers
Description
Grenades are area of effect projectiles. They have varying effects when used - some cause damage, some incapacitate, and others do different things. In all cases, they work in roughly the same way - to arm a grenade, you 'prime' it. Then you 'throw' the grenade into an adjacent room - or 'drop' it in your current room if you have a getaway route planned. Grenades will not go off until they are moved from your current inventory..
