IT HAS SHARP GRAPHICS AND SMOOTH ANIMATION. PLUS A MENU FEATURE IN PLAY. HOWEVER,THIS GAME HAS ONE DRAW BACK.IF YOU START TO MAKE TOO MANY WRONG MOVES THE THUGS CLOSE IN ON YOU AND KILL YOU.THIS MAKES IT RATHER TEDIOUS TO HAVE TO KEEP GOING THROUGH THE SAME SCENES, TRYING TO FIND THE "CORRECT" THING TO DO. BECAUSE OF THIS I HAVE PUT THINGS THAT AREN'T NECESSARY IN PARENTHESES. @ THIS GAME ALSO HAS SPECIAL KEYS THAT CAN TAKE CARE OF COMMON COMMANDS. @ 1 - SAVE GAME 2 - LOAD GAME 3 - REPEAT PREVIOUS COMMAND 4 - TELL ME ABOUT 5 - DROP 6 - GET ALL 7 - QUICKSAVE 8 - QUICKLOAD 9 - TALK TO THE @ NOW ONTO THE GAME.... @ SOLVE: ----- @ 1.

IN THIS WAY YOU CAN SOMETIMES GET THE IDEA OF THE VOCABULARY NEEDED. @ @ HOW TO SOLVE DEADLINE --------------------- @ @ ALL COMMANDS ARE IN "QUOTES" AND ALL DIRECTIONAL MOVES ARE IN [BRACKETS]. @ @ FROM THE FRONT PATH OF THE ROBNER'S ESTATE PROCEED [N]. NOW YOU SHOULD BE AT THE FRONT DOOR OF THE HOUSE. TYPE "OPEN DOOR" AND THEN PROCEED [N] AGAIN. THIS WILL PLACE YOU WITHIN THE ESTATE. THEN GO [N,N,E,] THEN "CLIMB STAIRS". THIS WILL PLACE YOU AT THE SECOND LEVEL OF THE ESTATE. THEN GO [W,W,W,W,N]. THIS WILL PLACE YOU IN THE LIBRARY TO DO YOUR DETECTIVE WORK. FIRST "LOOK RUG". YOU WILL SEE MUD SPOTS (CRUCIAL FOR THE ARREST). THEN "TAKE CUP AND PAD AND CALENDAR AND PENCIL". NOW "RUB PENCIL ON PAPER". AFTER HAVING DONE THIS, "TURN PAGE ON CALENDAR" AND "READ CALENDAR". AFTER HAVING DONE THIS, "OPEN BALCONY DOOR" AND GO [E]. THIS WILL PLACE YOU ON THE BALCONY. "LOOK RAILING" (THIS WILL CONFIRM OUR MUD THEORY). HAVING DONE ALL OF THE ABOVE PROCEDURE, [S,E, E,E,E,D,D,W,S,S]. THIS WILL PLACE YOU AT THE FRONT DOOR AGAIN. NOW GO [NW, S,S,E,S,E,SE]. THIS WILL BRING YOU TO THE SHED (MORE DETECTIVE WORK). NOW, "LOOK LADDER" (MORE MUD AGAIN-I THINK IT IS SAFE TO ASSUME THAT THE MURDERER USED THE LADDER TO ENTER THROUGH THE BALCONY AND THEN SOMEHOW MURDERED OUR DEAR FRIEND MR.ROBNER. NOW THIS HAVING BEEN DONE, RETURN TO THE FRONT DOOR. [NW,W,N,W,N,N,SE]. NOW WE HAVE TO TREK ALL THE WAY UPSTAIRS AGAIN!. GO [N,N,E,U,U,N,N]. YOU SHOULD NOW BE IN DUNBAR'S BATHROOM. TYPE "LOOK LOBO" (INTERESTING, HEH?). NOW GO ALL THE WAY DOWNSTAIRS AGAIN. [S,S,S,D,D,W, S,S]. YOU WILL BE AT THE FRONT DOOR AGAIN. NOW YOU HAVE TIME TO TAKE A REST. TYPE "WAIT TILL 11:30". @ IT SHOULD NOW BE 11:31. NOW WE HAVE TO HUNT DOWN MR. MCNABB. GO TO THE ORCHARD [E,NE,N]. (NOTE: DUE TO THE NATURE OF DEADLINE, MCNABB MIGHT NOT BE THERE. IF HE IS NOT, HUNT HIM DOWN! - IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE YOU FIND HIM). ONCE MCNABB HAS BEEN LOCATED SAY "HEY MCNABB"/CR/ "WHAT IS WRONG". AFTER THIS FOLLOW HIM HOME AND HE WILL THEN POINT OUT TO YOU TWO HOLES IN HIS ROSE GARDEN. YOU THEN SAY "LOOK HOLES" (MORE MUD THEORY) AND THEN "DIG GROUND". THEN WITH YOUR NEW FOUND TREASURE TYPE "ANALYZE FRAGMENT FOR LOBLO". NOW WE HAVE TO CATCH THE WILL READING. GO [N,N,SE,S, SW,W,S]. YOU WILL BE AT THE FRONT DOOR ONCE AGAIN. NOW GO [N,N,W] AND WAIT FOR THE WILL TO BE READ. AFTER THAT SAY "HEY GEORGE". THEN TYPE "SHOW GEORGE THE CALENDAR". HE WILL PANIC AND RUN UPSTAIRS. FOLLOW HIM!! HE THEN WILL DUCK INTO HIS ROOM AND YOU GO [W,W,N,N]. THIS WILL PLACE YOU ON THE LIBRARY'S BALCONY. NOW TYPE "WAIT 10 MIN". ONCE GEORGE ENTERS THE ROOM WAIT FOR ABOUT 2 MIN AND THEN [S], "LOOK BOOKCASE", "PRESS BUTTON", "GET WILL", "LOOK SAFE", "GET PAPERS", "READ PAPERS" THEN GO TO THE LIVING ROOM [S,S,E,E,E,E,D,D,E,E] AND SAY "HEY BAXTER", "WHAT ABOUT FOCUS", "SHOW FOCUS TO BAXTER", "HEY DUNBAR", "SHOW FOCUS PAPERS", "WHAT ABOUT FOCUS". THEN FOLLOW DUNBAR CLOSELY. ONCE OUTSIDE THE HOUSE SHE WILL DROP A PIECE OF PAPER. "GET PAPER", "READ PAPER" THEN CONTINUE FOLLOWING HER. ONCE YOU CATCH UP, ASK HER "HEY DUNBAR", "SHOW PAPER TO DUNBAR". THEN MAKE TRACKS FOR THE SHED. [E,E, SE]. WAIT FOR BAXTER. ONCE DUNBAR AND BAXTER ARE PRESENT TYPE "ARREST BAXTER AND DUNBAR". @ @ EASY, ISN'T IT ??? @ @ @ @ SOLUTION TO SORCERER ==================== @ @ {S} *YOU'LL BE EATEN BY THE HELLHOUND AND THEN WAKE UP*. {FROTZ ME, GET UP, W, W, PULL HANGING, GET KEY, OPEN DRAWER, UNLOCK JOURNAL, READ JOURNAL} * INSIDE THE JOURNAL IS A WRITTEN CODE WORD WHICH WILL CHANGE EVERY TIME THE DISK IS BOOTED.

PRESS FOURTH BUMP. (THE SCULPTURE IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE SOLAR SYSTEM. YOU PRESS THE FOURTH BUMP BECAUSE IT CORRESPONDS TO YOUR HOME PLANET (EARTH). WHY IS EARTH THE FOURTH BUMP AND NOT THE THIRD ? BECAUSE THE SUN COUNTS AS THE FIRST BUMP!). AT THIS POINT YOU SHOULD SEE A "TINY BUMP"). PRESS TINY. NOW YOU WILL SEE A BLACK ROD RISE UP. THIS ROD IS A "SELF- DESTRUCT" DEVICE! DO NOT PUT IT IN ANY BLACK SLOT, EVER!. TAKE BLACK ROD. THE AIRLOCK DOOR WILL OPEN WHEN YOU TAKE THE ROD. IN. CLOSE OUTER. OPEN INNER. IN. TA-DA! YOU ARE NOW IN THE "ARTIFACT" !!! @ @ THE ARTIFACT === ======== @ THINK OF IT AS AN INTER-GALACTIC INTELLIGENCE TEST. PUT THE RIGHT BLOCKS IN THE RIGHT HOLES AND WIN THE PRIZE. THE ARTIFACT IS CYLINDRICAL IN SHAPE, AND DIVIDED (LIKE A PIE) INTO FOUR WEDGES, WHICH (LIKE THE SLOTS) ARE COLOUR CODED. THESE COLOURS ARE: RED, BLUE, GREEN, YELLOW. THESE WEDGES ARE TRANSECTED BY 5 CONCENTRIC RINGS: IN SHORT, THE CYLINDER IS DIVIDED INTO A SORT OF CIRCULAR GRID SYSTEM OF RINGS AND COLOURS. (THIS WILL BE MORE OBVIOUS TO YOU AS YOU MOVE ABOUT IN THE ARTIFACT.) DIRECTIONS ARE: N,S,E,W,U, AND D. UP AND DOWN CORRESPOND TO IN AND OUT. EAST AND WEST CORRESPOND TO LEFT AND RIGHT, AND ALSO TO PORT AND STARBOARD. WHEN YOU ENTER THE ARTIFACT, YOU WILL BE UNABLE TO ENTER THE YELLOW SECTION WITHOUT BEING EATEN BY THE GRUES (WHICH WERE APPARENTLY CAPTURED ON THE PLANET ZORK, BUT WHO ESCAPED FROM THE ALIEN ZOO FOR THE EXPRESS PURPOSE OF MENACING ADVENTURERS FOOLHARDY ENOUGH TO TRAVEL WITHOUT LIGHT. ) @ @ COLLECT THOSE RODS! ======= ===== ===== @ @ YOU CAN GET THESE IN DIFFERENT ORDERS, BUT THE FOLLOWING ONE WILL DEFINITELY WORK: BLACK, RED, SILVER, YELLOW, PINK, BLUE, GOLD, BROWN, VIOLET, GREEN, CLEAR (CRYSTAL), WHITE. @ @ GETTING THE RED ROD: IT'S BEING HELD CAPTIVE BY "ANT-MEN"! TO GET THERE: N. W. FORWARD. E. NOW, THE ANT-MEN WILL BE VERY NASTY IF YOU TRY TO TAKE THEIR ROD AWAY. SO LET'S KEEP THEM BUSY DOING SOMETHING ELSE -- LIKE REBUILDING THEIR NEST .... THROW SOMETHING AT THE NEST -- THE TAPE PLAYER WILL DO NICELY, AND YOUR SPACE SUIT WILL ALSO WORK IF YOU WANT TO BOTHER TAKING IT OFF. THEN GET RED ROD. DON'T FORGET TO RECLAIM WHATEVER IT WAS YOU THREW!! (GET LIBRARY) @ @ GETTING THE SILVER ROD: (IT'S ON THE WAY TO THE YELLOW ONE, WHICH WE REALLY >NEEDSECOND< RED SLOT (THIS WILL TURN ON THE LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEM AND GET THAT TELL-TALE WINDEX AROMA OUT OF THE AIR IN A FEW TURNS. LATER ON THIS WILL ENABLE YOU TO TRADE YOUR OLD SPACESUIT FOR SOMETHING TRULY USEFUL (LIKE A BROWN ROD)). GET CARD. YOU'LL NEED TO PUT THIS INTO THE COMPUTER -- I SUSPECT IT'S A DISK II CONTROLLER CARD -- CAN'T BOOT UP WITHOUT ONE! @ @ GETTING THE PINK ROD: IT'S IN THE SPACESHIP DOCKED OUTSIDE THE YELLOW AIRLOCK. BE CAREFUL, ONE FALSE MOVE AND IT'S DEEP SPACE FOR YOU. TO GET THERE : U. N. D. W. OPEN INNER. OUT. CLOSE INNER. OPEN OUTER. GET BASKET. (THIS BASKET CAN BE USED TO HOLD THE RODS TILL YOU NEED THEM -- THAT WAY THEY WON'T TAKE UP VALUABLE INVENTORY SPACE.) OPEN OUTER (YES, AGAIN: IT STUCK THE FIRST TIME!). OUT. ATTACH LINE TO SPACESUIT. ATTACH LINE TO HOOK. PORT. GET PINK ROD. @ @ GETTING THE BLUE ROD: IT'S IN THE LABORATORY, WITH OTHER USEFUL IMPLEMENTS. TO GET THERE: E. DETACH LINE FROM HOOK. IN. CLOSE OUTER. OPEN INNER. IN. S. S. PUT ALL RODS IN BASKET. E. GET ALL DISKS. NOW COMES THE TRICKY PART: THE ROD IS IMBEDDED IN THE SILVER SPHERE. ALL WE HAVE AT OUR DISPOSAL TO OBTAIN IT IS THE 4-POSITION DIAL AND THE TWO DISKS ... FORTUNATELY, THESE ARE "TRANSPORTER DISKS". UNFORTUNATELY, THEY EXPLODE INTO NOTHINGNESS IF YOU ALLOW THEM TO TOUCH .... ANYWAY, HERE'S THE PROCEDURE: PUT RED DISK UNDER GLOBE. PUT BLUE DISK ON FLOOR. PUT CARD ON GLOBE. TURN DIAL TO 4. TURN DIAL TO 2. GET CARD. GET BLUE ROD. GET ALL DISKS. PUT BLUE ROD IN BASKET. W. PUT BLUE DISK ON FLOOR. (YOU *>HAVE<* TO PUT IT ON THE FLOOR HERE SO THE "MAINTENANCE MOUSE" CAN COLLECT IT AND PUT IT IN THE GARAGE SO YOU CAN TRANSPORT THERE (AND OUT OF TROUBLE) LATER!!!) @ @ GETTING THE GOLD ROD: N. N. N. N. W. AFT. NOW YOU'RE IN THE COMPUTER ROOM. OPEN PANEL. PUT CARD IN SLOT. CLOSE PANEL. TURN COMPUTER ON. (IT WILL SPEW OUT A GOLD BAR FOR YOU). PUT GOLD ROD IN BASKET. LOOK AROUND IF YOU LIKE, BUT THERE'S NOTHING ELSE TO DO HERE. THE ENUNCIATOR PANEL TELLS YOU WHAT YOU HAVE TO FIX TO PUT THE ARTIFACT IN ORDER, BUT I'M GOING TO TELL YOU THAT ANYWAY ...... @ @ GETTING THE BROWN ROD: N. W. W. S. S. E. E. REMOVE SUIT. LOOK AROUND OR "WAIT" OR SOMETHING UNTIL THE CHIEFTAIN COMES. OFFER SUIT TO CHIEF. POINT AT BROWN ROD. @ @ GETTING THE VIOLET ROD: YOU HAVE NO TIME TO PUT THE BROWN ROD IN YOUR BASKET! FOLLOW THE CHIEF WHEN HE LEAVES. IT'S THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE THE VIOLET ROD!!! JUST KEEP SAYING "FOLLOW CHIEF" UNTIL YOU GET TO THE "CENTER OF THE WARREN". THEN: D. CLOSE INNER. OPEN OUTER. OUT. P. P. GET VISOR. N. MOVE SKELETON. GET VIOLET ROD (MOVE THE SKELETON ONLY ONCE!!). S. S. PUT RED DISK ON FLOOR. STAND ON RED DISK. SURPRISE ==> TRANSPORTER CITY. WITH ANY LUCK YOU'LL NOW BE IN THE GARAGE. IF THE MOUSE HASN'T COLLECTED THE BLUE DISK YET, YOU'LL BE BACK OUTSIDE THE LABORATORY. YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO WAIT TILL HE COMES AND GETS IT, THEN TRANSPORT TO THE GARAGE ...... @ @ GETTING THE GREEN ROD: ENTER BIN. (KEEP TYPING "ENTER BIN" OR "AGAIN" UNTIL YOU FIND THE GREEN ROD. IT MAY TAKE UP TO 10 TRIES!). GET GREEN ROD. PUT GREEN ROD IN BASKET. @ @ GETTING THE CLEAR ROD: F. P. N. N. N. N. W. LOOK AT LASER THROUGH VISOR. GET CLEAR ROD. @ @ GETTING THE WHITE ROD: E. S. S. U. S. S. P. U. U. JUMP. PUT SILVER ROD IN SILVER SLOT. IN. GET WHITE ROD. @ @ YOU'VE GOT ALL THE RODS NOW. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS FIGURE OUT WHY YOU'VE COLLECTED THEM. @ @ FINISHING UP ========= == @ @ PUT THE WHITE ROD IN THE WHITE SLOT. (A BLACK SLOT WILL APPEAR. DO =>NOT<= PUT THE BLACK ROD IN THE BLACK SLOT!). GETTING TO THE CONTROL BUBBLE: OUT. U. JUMP. FIRE GUN AT DRIVE BUBBLE. AGAIN. AGAIN. (YOU SHOULD NOW BE "ON CONTROL BUBBLE".) D. PUT GOLD ROD IN GOLD SLOT. IN. PUT CLEAR ROD IN CLEAR SLOT. FIVE COLORED SLOTS WILL APPEAR. PUT THE APPROPRIATE ROD IN EACH SLOT --> THE ORDER YOU DO IT IN DOESN'T MATTER. @ THE FINAL SEQUENCE: YOU NOW USE THE VARIOUS COLORED SPOTS TO SET THE COURSE OF THE ARTIFACT TOWARD EARTH. TOUCH LARGE SQUARE. (THE VIEW NOW COVERS THE AREA FROM THE SUN TO JUPITER). TOUCH BROWN SPOT. (YOU WILL HAVE TO TOUCH IT 4 TIMES, UNTIL THE EARTH IS HIGHLIGHTED). TOUCH VIOLET SPOT (THREE TIMES, UNTIL THE PATH FORMS A CIRCLE AROUND THE EARTH. (DON'T STOP AT THE ELLIPSE!)). TOUCH GREEN SPOT. (THE PATH WILL FLASH.) TOUCH BLUE SPOT. BLAST-OFF !!!!!

You've solved Tass Times in Tonetown! @ --> Solve written by : The Keymaster @ @ @ @ ------- TRINITY ------- @ @ World tensions seem to be running high, but so what else is new? Darned if you're going to let that get in the way of enjoying the last day of your vacation. You don't get over to the east side of the Atlantic often and there's no reason for angry rhetoric to spoil a stroll through Kensington Gardens. It's a spot you will have to learn to love, since you're doomed to be passing through it forever. But the good news is you're going to become an integral part of the space-time continuum. But that's for physicists; let's get on with the game! @ As in any game, be sure to map. The mapping is especially fun in this game, since it shows great symmetry with the props included with the package, particularly, the Sundial. @ You start off at the Palace Gate, getting ready for a stroll through the park. The first place to go is off to the northeast, The Wabe. Here you'll find an object that is the central theme for the whole game, a Sundial. If you examine it, you notice that the gnomon, the piece that casts the shadow, is loose. Hmmm. UNSCREW GNOMON. It falls to the ground. TAKE GNOMON. @ From the Wabe go southeast to the Flower Walk. But what's that in the bushes? A soccer ball. TAKE BALL. (There are very few red herrings in this game.) Go north from here. I'll meet you at Lancaster Walk. @ There is water on two sides of us here. First try going east toward the Long Water. Whoa! That's some tough grass. But notice what an easy time the bicyclists have. Well, let's head off to the west. This is the Round Pond, a quaint European scene. Take a look at the boats. What's this, a paper bird? TAKE BIRD. Look at the bird. There's some writing. OPEN BIRD. READ PAPER. Take a look at your watch. 4 pm isn't far away. You're going to have to find a way across that grass. @ Go northwest. This is the Black Lion Gate. Some irresponsible nanny has forgotten her perambulator. (Don't worry, you can call it a pram.) OPEN PRAM. Whew! At least she didn't forget the child. This has wheels, kind off like bicycle tires. Better bring it with you. PUSH PRAM SOUTH. @ Here at the Broad Walk you see an old woman selling crumbs. At least she isn't on the dole. Patronise the woman; BUY CRUMBS. She offers the bag and your change: TAKE BAG AND COIN. Put the coin and the paper (from the bird) in your pocket. Might as well give some crumbs to the birds. FEED BIRDS. (Once, and only once. You'll notice that the wind shifts.) What's this? A Ruby? Try to take it. Beep Beep! A Roadrunner in England? These crumbs are going to be useful, so take care not to spill them. @ PUSH PRAM NORTHEAST. Here you are at the Iverness Terrace. There is a typically preoccupied British youth listening to his walkman and blowing bubbles. Don't antagonize the fellow, just remember the scene for future reference. PUSH THE PRAM EAST. @ Here at the Lancaster Gate you'll see a woman struggle with and lose her umbrella. Oh, the poor woman, look at her face. Before you can help, she has left and her umbrella is in the tree. Well, maybe you can give it back to her at some other time. THROW BALL AT UMBRELLA. Down it falls. TAKE UMBRELLA. PUSH THE PRAM SOUTH, back to Lancaster Walk. @ Time is running out. GET IN THE PRAM. (Don't you feel silly? You certainly look silly.) Now how to get this thing moving? Remember the wind? OPEN UMBRELLA. Eiiiiiggghhhh! When you get up you'll notice you will have dropped everything. TAKE ALL. (Don't worry about the pram.) When you read the description, you'll notice that the rhetoric has turned into war and the first missile is on its way! Fortunately, a door appears over the water. ENTER WATER. ENTER DOOR. (And, yes, it is a good direction!) You're on your way to the other side! @ You find yourself in a meadow. A shadow lies across the room. You will become very familiar with the shadow. Also here is a gigantic mushroom. There are six others like it in this part of the game. Five of them must be solved before the sixth one can be solved. (If you haven't yet done so, save the game and have a look around and then continue from here.) The only way out of this room is to the north. You are now at the Summit, and have seen or will see a meteor fly through the sky and hear it hit the ground. @ From the Summit go northeast to the South Bog. Amid the bog is a decaying log. It sparkles as it decays. Most adventurers recognise a potential light source when they see one, and this is certainly one. KICK LOG. TAKE SPLINTER. No need to worry about grues or other such creatures now. Go east to the Bottom of the Stairs. Go up twice to the Top of Vertex, and notice the temperature. EXAMINE HOLE. EXAMINE RING. Try to screw the gnomon in the hole. The threading doesn't match. You'll try again later. Go down twice. @ From the bottom of the stairs go south to the Trellises and southwest to the Arborvitaes. Go east to the Arboretum and notice the statue. Go north to the North Arbor and then up to the Top of Arbor. Here you'll see an axe. TAKE AXE. It will be an extremely important piece of equipment. Go down (to the south if they ask) and you'll be in the South Arbor. Go down into the Arboretum and once again notice the statue. The name is sdrawkcaB! Go west and then northeast to get back to the Trellises and then north again to the Bottom of Stairs. Go up twice. Now SCREW GNOMON IN HOLE. It works this time because the threading (and everything else) has been reversed. EXAMINE THE RING again. Notice that the symbols on the ring are the same that are on the sundial in the game package. Also note that they are present in the "Illustrated Story of the Atomic Bomb" in the game documentation.You'll notice a lever has popped up, too. @ Go down twice. From here go northeast to Under Cliff. You will see a bee hive here. Go east to the Crater's Edge and east again into the crater. Here is that meteorite that you saw earlier.You can't take it now, however, because it is too hot. You will have to find a way to cool it down. Go west and then northwest to the Bluff. Here is a cottage. OPEN DOOR. Go east into the Cottage. Examine the surroundings,they are interesting and amusing.LISTEN TO THE BIRD. Get the whole recipe; be sure of it by WAITing enough times so that the bird repeats the first thing you heard. (Not including "Awks!" or other bird-type sounds.) Now you have a quest. @ OPEN THE BACK DOOR. Go east to the Herb Garden. You'll see some mushrooms, one with a door, and a refuse pile. SEARCH PILE. TAKE GARLIC. You now have one of the necessary ingredients. Go west back into the cottage and DROP THE GARLIC (not in the cauldron). Go west again to the bluff and then southwest to the Chasm's Brink. You'll see the shadow here and a big tree. In order to cross the chasm, you have to fell this tree. Fortunately, you have your axe with you. CHOP TREE WITH AXE. Make sure the tree falls where you want it to: PUSH TREE NORTH. The tree will bridge the gap and you can go north to the Mesa. When you get there you will see another mushroom, but the white is open. ENTER DOOR. @ If you've noticed the correlation between the sundial and the documentation, then you know where you are. Climb down from the Scaffold. OPEN BOX. TURN ON SWITCH. You can listen to the final procedure checks. PUSH BUTTON. Now you can get out as the doors open. Go south to the South Beach. You can walk around a bit, but better just to go northwest to West Beach. You can see a small islet a short way off shore. Try to enter the water. Owww! Don't bother trying to placate these crabby creatures, it can't be done. If you simply WAIT a few turns some interesting things happen. You will see a large dark fin approach you and you will see a coconut fall from a tree on the islet. Don't back away from the fin; just prepare yourself for...a dolphin! He's friendly and intelligent and, sadly, probably soon dead. When the tide has risen so that the coconut is afloat, POINT AT COCONUT. The clever dolphin understands you and sends it to your feet. TAKE COCONUT. You must now take leave of the dolphin and go back through the door. Go southeast then north. UP. ENTER DOOR. @ You are now back on the Mesa. Go south and then northwest. You see the boy again, but now he's huge. You'll get back to him. Go south. This is the North Bog, directly north of the South Bog. Notice the Venus Flytrap. Go southeast to the Bottom of the Stairs. DROP UMBRELLA here. Go northeast. This hive is no doubt the place for the honey. This is no time to stop taking risks: PUT HAND IN HIVE. Now you've done it. You need a defence. The Flytrap! Without hesitation go west twice. The bee will get sidetracked (permanently) and you can go back for the honey. Go east twice. PUT HAND IN HIVE. @ From here you must go back to the cottage to get rid of this honey which is stuck to your hand. Go east then northwest, then east again to enter the cottage. You were daring to get the honey, now be daring to get rid of it: PUT HAND IN CAULDRON. That's one down, three to go. DROP COCONUT. CRACK COCONUT WITH AXE. TAKE COCONUT. POUR MILK IN CAULDRON. That's two down and two to go, and the garlic is right here on the floor. But what about the lizard? DROP THE COCONUT and let's find it. @ Go west, southeast, west and southwest to get back to the Bottom of the Stairs. Go up twice and TURN RING TO THIRD SYMBOL. Go down twice and west twice until you reach the Waterfall. Go north to the Cemetery, noticing the crypt, and then north again into the Barrow. You'll see a barrow wight here, but he'll not bother you so long as you have a light source. You will also see a small hole in the wall. Go north again and you'll be in the Ossuary, surrounded by those less fortunate then yourself. SEARCH THE BONES and you should find (appropriately enough) a skeleton key. TAKE KEY. The mushroom here has its white door open. (The shadow from the enormous gnomon is the key to the doors; by changing the position of the gnomon by turning the ring, you direct the shadow from the suns toward a particular door. While the shadow touches the door it remains open (until you pass back through it). By keeping the lever down the suns are prevented from moving.) ENTER DOOR. @ This area is the Underground. You'll notice a small thermo-nuclear device waiting to be detonated. You will also see a lantern. TAKE LANTERN. Go west. TAKE WALKIE-TALKIE. A skink is a small lizard, by the way. Go west. By now you have probably noticed that the skink is afraid of light. To get it out of the crevice, PUT SPLINTER IN CREVICE. The skink then runs by to the east. Time to corral that li'l critter. Go east. TURN ON LANTERN. DROP LANTERN. Go west and there is the confused and bewildered skink running around at your feet. TAKE SKINK. PUT SKINK IN POCKET. This is no time to be squeamish. Go east and TAKE LANTERN. Go east twice, the second time being back through the door. @ Now that you are back in the Ossuary, you have to get out of this creepy place but those bars are there to see that you don't. Go south. Remember that hole? PUT KEY IN HOLE. TURN KEY. Just go DOWN to get out to the Ice Cavern. First thing to do is TURN OFF LANTERN. You will need it again later. In fact, LOOK AT LANTERN. It is now time for some inventory management. @ Go east to get to the Waterfall and then east twice more to get to the Bottom of Stairs. DROP WALKIE TALKIE AND LANTERN. Those two items and the umbrella should now be here. Return to the Ice Cavern by going west three times. LOOK AT CEILING. There are icicles there, just the thing to cool a hot meteorite. THROW AXE AT ICICLES. One falls to the ground. TAKE AXE AND ICICLE. Save the game here. (I hope you have been doing so regularly.) Take the icicle to the Crater using the shortest possible route. Oops, didn't quite make it, eh? A detour is in order. From the Ice Cavern go east three times to the Bottom of the Stairs and up twice to the Vertex. (Remember that it's cold in thin air.) While you're here, TURN RING TO SECOND SYMBOL. Now that the icicle is re-frozen, go down twice, northeast, and east twice to get into the crater. No time to lose, PUT ICICLE ON LUMP. You can feel its pull on the axe, so you know it is a magnet of sorts. TAKE LUMP. It is now time to visit the bubble boy. @ Go west three times and then northwest to get back the Promontory.GET IN WATER. WAIT until you are swept up into a bubble. You do not have to worry about any special means of guiding the bubble, simply give directions normally. Go south, then southwest and finally IN. The bubble freezes and you are floating in space. When you read the description, you will notice that the moon, in crescent form, is coming into view. TAKE SKINK. KILL SKINK. Soon you will collide with a satellite (the kind Cap Weinberger dreams of) due to the force of the magnetic meteorite. Save the game. When the satellite brings you VERY close to the white door, BREAK BUBBLE WITH AXE. This will propel you into the door and send you back to the Waterfall. @ You now have the last ingredient for the potion the bird described. Go northeast, east, northeast, and east to get back into the Cottage. Open the cage door and let the bird go. PUT SKINK IN CAULDRON. TAKE GARLIC. PUT GARLIC IN CAULDRON. EAST. WAIT. After the Boom you can go back into the cottage. The book and pedestal and map are all destroyed. However, if you look in the cauldron there is an emerald there. TAKE EMERALD. That leaves three mushrooms to go. @ TAKE CAGE then go west, southwest, southwest again, and east back to the Bottom of Stairs. You can now DROP ALL BUT CAGE and go up twice. SET THE RING TO FIFTH SYMBOL and go down twice. Go west, northeast, northeast again, east, and east again. This will bring you back to the Herb Garden where the door in the mushroom is now awaiting you. ENTER WHITE DOOR. This brings you out onto the Platform in Siberia. Go down to Under Platform. Eeek, what's that? WAIT a turn and you'll see that the ground is covered with rodents which are racing to the northeast. May as well follow them so go northeast twice. At the Cliff Edge you recognise these rodents as lemmings. They are so thick underfoot that they almost obscure the fissure beneath your feet. EXAMINE FISSURE and sure enough, there is a lemming in there just waiting for you to take it. TAKE LEMMING. PUT LEMMING IN CAGE. CLOSE CAGE. That's what you're here to get so go southwest twice, up, and ENTER DOOR to exit back to the Herb Garden. @ Go west twice, southwest twice, and east. Now go up twice and SET RING TO SIXTH SYMBOL. Go down twice, DROP CAGE, and TAKE UMBRELLA AND PAPER. Go east twice to the Moor where another mushroom with an open door invites you in. ENTER DOOR and ooops...where's the ground? Pretty far down so you'd better OPEN UMBRELLA. Once again you seem to have dropped everything so TAKE ALL. Go east into the Shelter and TAKE SPADE. Go west back out to the Playground and examine your surroundings to be sure you know where you are. WAIT for a little while and a girl will appear and be very interested in that umbrella of yours. It's clear she would like it but maybe you should charge her for it. You'll need a way back up to that white door in the sky. If you could only fly. Did you see anything in the school windows that gave you an idea what to do here? Perhaps one of those paper birds is the answer. Of course, you still have your own paper bird, don't you? Oh, it's a little ruined? So refold it. YOU can't. GIVE PAPER TO GIRL. Now we're on to something. GIVE UMBRELLA TO GIRL. See, you knew something magical would happen! BOARD BIRD and once it stops just ENTER DOOR. @ Now it is time to use the spade. From our map we know that the seventh mushroom must be across the river, but if you've ever tried to board that dory while you were alive, you know you can't. If you've never tried it, go ahead, it doesn't hurt and may yield a smile. From the Moor go west four times and then north. Here in the Cemetery is that crypt whose lid you may have tried to pry with the umbrella or axe. Neither of them worked; but if you examine the spade, you'll see that it looks sturdy enough. PRY LID WITH SPADE. LOOK IN CRYPT. EXAMINE CORPSE. TAKE SHROUD and you may as well WEAR SHROUD. TAKE BANDAGE and then LOOK IN MOUTH. TAKE SILVER COIN. Looks like we're ready to cross that river now. But wait, that silly corpse is wearing a green boot and a red boot. TAKE RED BOOT AND GREEN BOOT. WEAR RED BOOT. WEAR GREEN BOOT. They may just come in handy. Go south and then east twice. You can DROP BANDAGE AND SPADE. You should now TAKE CAGE, EMERALD, WALKIE-TALKIE, LAMP, AND BAG. @ You are now ready for the seventh mushroom. Don't forget to go up twice, SET RING TO SEVENTH SYMBOL, and go down twice before you set out for the river. Go southeast and WAIT. Once the real ghosts take a seat you can BOARD DORY. Because you have covered up those tourist shorts with a shroud you should have no problem with this. GIVE SILVER COIN TO OARSMAN and you're off on the final leg of your journey. @ From the Sand Bar, go south. You should be greeted by the roadrunner with that ruby. ENTER DOOR after the roadrunner and emerge in New Mexico. You are in the Shack and because of the voices outside it seems prudent to stay here for a while so let's read a little. DROP CAGE. TAKE BOOK. READ BOOK. It's not very interesting so DROP BOOK and TAKE SLIP OF CARDBOARD. EXAMINE SLIP OF CARDBOARD. READ POETRY and EXAMINE DIAGRAM. Take careful note of the diagram each time you play because the diagram is different each time and its information is critical to your success. DROP SLIP OF CARDBOARD and TAKE CAGE. @ It sounds as if the men have left so go west and then down twice. Here's the roadrunner and that ruby. Hmmm, we already have an emerald. That makes a red gem and a green gem! There must be some connection then between the gems and the red and green boot. EXAMINE GREEN BOOT. Yup, looks like that emerald would fit into that recess. PUT EMERALD IN GREEN BOOT. Interesting,and probably useful. TAKE RUBY. PUT RUBY IN RED BOOT. Looks like you are ready for some speedy traveling and that is essential because time is short. From your Illustrated Story of the Atom Bomb you know that the bomb will be tested at 5:30. (With the wings on your boots you can cover one move in the desert in 15 seconds but without the wings it will take you 5 minutes. Brewing up that emerald was a required part of the game!) @ Go northwest three times and you will be at the Paved Road near the jeep. OPEN DOOR and ENTER JEEP. EXAMINE RADIO and EXAMINE DIAL. That dial matches the slider on your walkie- talkie pretty well so let's SET SLIDER TO X where X is the number the radio dial is set to. (This number varies with each game you play.) OUT. Don't worry about that wallet, you don't need it. RAISE ANTENNA and TURN ON WALKIE-TALKIE. There just may be some useful information to overhear. Go southeast five times and then east once. Now go south and then west. @ There are two doors here. Let's OPEN RIGHT DOOR and go west. Yipes, this looks like trouble. I would leave fast, so go north. Boxed yourself into a closet, huh? Well, first CLOSE DOOR. Whew! Safe for now. But what can you do now? Maybe if you distracted the snake with another prey, it would be satisfied and leave you alone. OPEN CAGE and OPEN DOOR. Perfect! Just as planned. Go OUT. MOVE PAPER, DROP CAGE, and TAKE SCREWDRIVER. Go south and then west. TAKE KNIFE. You really don't have time to explore the rest of the house but you now have all that there is for you here. @ Go east, north, east, east again, and southeast. DROP ALL BUT BAG AND LAMP. (Never, ever drop that bag unless you want to use it -- that roadrunner is hungry!). Go up and DROP BAG (I guess it is safe here). Go IN and DOWN. TURN ON LAMP. (I hope you saved as much of the power in this lamp as possible.) DROP LAMP and go UP and OUT. Now go down, northeast, and up. TAKE BINOCULARS and oops! Here we go again! But we've prepared in advance so just go DOWN and TAKE BINOCULARS. Now go UP and OUT and TAKE BAG (wouldn't want those tasty crumbs to get wet). Go down and TAKE WALKIE-TALKIE, SCREWDRIVER, AND KNIFE. Go northwest, north, west, and then northwest twice. @ Let's explore the south road next. (If you've been listening to your radio, you know that time is getting short. Or you can check your wristwatch, it is working again.) Go south four times until you are Behind the Shed. WAIT a bit until your friend the roadrunner arrives then EXAMINE SHELTER WITH BINOCULARS. That bird sure is nosy, isn't he. Put him to work by typing POINT TO KEY. DROP BINOCULARS, TAKE KEY, and then go north four times. UNLOCK PADLOCK WITH KEY, TAKE PADLOCK, DROP PADLOCK, OPEN BOX, and EXAMINE PANEL. OPEN CIRCUIT BREAKER. Listen carefully to what you hear, especially the part about the "kid" and the line he may have forgotten to connect. @ Now in your next move CLOSE HANDLE or they will come to investigate. Again, listen carefully to what they say because the timing of the final puzzle depends on what you hear. OK, you now know what you need to do. If you can somehow disconnect the line that the crew thinks is faulty, and you do it AFTER the autosequencer starts, they will chalk it up to a "wet line" and let it go. You know which line it is because the kid is worried about it. I can't tell you which one it is because it changes from game to game. @ It will be the positive, ground, informer, or detonator. These are abbreviated as POS, GND, INF, and DET on the slip of cardboard you found in the book. Remember that panel in the Shack? You now have the screwdriver you need to open it and you have the knife to cut the proper wire (the slip of cardboard will translate the name of the wire into the colour of the wire you need to cut). All you have to do now is go up into the Shack, open the panel, wait for the autosequencer to start, and then cut the correct wire. Oops, there is that searchlight, isn't there? Maybe we should take care of that first. @ Then it should be safe to climb back up into the Shack. Go southwest four times and you will be Outside Blockhouse facing a big dog who is sleeping. Perhaps you have looked on this dog as a problem but he is, in fact, the solution to a problem. The searchlight is mounted on this blockhouse. Have you ever disturbed the dog or allowed the roadrunner to disturb him? Notice that when the crew comes out to investigate, they turn the searchlight from the tower to the blockhouse area.This is what we need to use to our advantage. @ Also, have you studied the actions of the roadrunner here? He's been hungry all during the game. The dog seems to provide a good dinner table but not for long. If you could just find a way to have the roadrunner disturb the dog when you were at the tower, you could climb the tower while the searchlight was aimed at the blockhouse area. So, here is what you can do. @ After arriving at Outside the Blockhouse, WAIT for the roadrunner. As soon as he jumps onto the dog, DROP BAG. Whew, he is more interested in the crumbs; but when he's done, he will probably go back onto the dog and alert the crew. After dropping the bag, immediately go northeast four times. If you haven't wasted any crumbs along the way, you should see the searchlight sweep away from the tower just as you arrive (you are still listening to your radio, I hope). @ We're almost there now but no time to linger. Go up twice and then east. UNSCREW SCREWS WITH SCREWDRIVER and LOOK IN PANEL. Too dark? Then just turn on your lamp. Oh, that's in the reservoir? OK, just TURN ON THE BULB that is conveniently in the Shack. That's better. Now LOOK IN PANEL. As you suspected from the diagram, there are four wires which are red, blue, striped, and white. Using the card and the information regarding the "wet line" you gained after you opened the box, you now know which wire to cut with the knife.But DON'T do it until AFTER the autosequencer starts at T-45. WAIT as long as needed. CUT xxxx WIRE WITH KNIFE. @ @ CONGRATULATIONS! Perhaps their next test will be a little less ambitious and you will survive your London vacation after all. To get the final messages from the game (now that you are back in Kensington Gardens at the Palace Gate), go east, north, and north again. EXAMINE WOMAN and read your final rank. @ @ @ @ WISHBRINGER SOLUTION Written by:The Sheik @ @ =====INTRO===== @ Having completed Wishbringer in one day, (sure you did, SEWER RAT !!) I thought I would type up this file to help anyone stuck somewhere in the game, who is smart enough not to by the original or the InvisiClues. I would first like to give a brief background on Wishbringer. The object of Wishbringer is to find the cat, Chaos, and bring him/her/it back to the woman who owns the Magick Shoppe. Wishbringer is unique in that it can be solved many different ways (thus allowing for longer game-play). Wishbringer (the item you will find) is equipped with 7 wishes, and the game can be solved without using any of them. In my completing the story, I had to use one wish, and I may try to go back and solve the story without using that wish, but the solution I provide here will be the same. You will end up with 95 out of 100 pts, while still successfully completing the game. @ This solution will not be "exact". As it is, there are wandering monsters ("Boots") that you will have to avoid on your own. I will present answers to any obstacles that may seem difficult to people like me who did not buy the game package.
