Ten Liner Cave

I saw this video recently:

"Tiny Text Adventure: From ZX81 to VIC-20 to Ultimate 64" by 8-Bit Show And Tell
I thought it'd be cool to port the game to the MZ BASIC as well. I tried but failed. I've got it into ten lines but had to split certain mathematical functions between lines due to the 79 character limit of the MZ's BASIC. I've attached the file so you can see what happens. Every move it says "CANNOT DO" regardless whether it can do or can't do what you're asking it to. And the map doesn't seem to work, except moving from the initial cave location north to the hall. Anyone have any ideas what's wrong?
Here's the file (for SA-5510):
