HINTS:
I. Starting Out
What do I do with the lamp?
- Remember the story of Aladdin?
I can't afford anything in the marketplace.
- Try pawning something valuable.
What is the purpose of the turquoise rug?
- If you put on the ground and sit on it ("GO RUG"), you might be able to
command it ("SAY") to do something magical.
II. The Island and Caves
What am I supposed to do here?
- You will eventually need to construct something which will allow you to
escape the island. First, however, you will need to explore the caves.
How do I get rid of the skeletons?
- As with nearly all other enemies in game, you will need to DRAW your
sword and KILL them, one at a time.
How do I get the key in the "Sea of Deceipt"?
- Did you find the bamboo pole and magnet yet? If so, this puzzle
shouldn't TIE up much more of your time.
How do I open the chest?
- Wasn't there a key around here somewhere?
I've got the booty, now what?
- Didn't you find a place where you could spend all of it?
How do I build the raft?
- Have the axe? Then do your best imitation of a lumberjack. With that and
the twine in hand, you should be able to BUILD it. Of course, you won't be
able to launch the raft from the forest. Just make sure you have something
to paddle with.
I'm lost at sea...
- Drop an object or two to plot your way through... (Sea monsters can be
dispatched with a sharp blade, by the way)
III. The Wizard's Domain and Endgame
Help! I'm being chased by a Cyclops
- Try to CLIMB your way to higher ground. Nowhere else to go? You will
need to make your "second wish" here.
A Banana? Is this a joke?
- If you eat it and drop it on the ground, the Cyclops may find that it's a
slippery slope all the way down...
How do I deal with the tarantula?
- The tarantula is, in fact, much like a groundhog on Groundhog's Day. Or,
perhaps more like a "deer in the headlights".
What is this invisible force protecting the princess?
- Did you find anything yet that could shed some "dust" on the situation?
I have the Princess. What do I do about the Roc?
- Don't let it stampede your game, cowboy.
How do I make the potion to return the princess to full stature?
- As the book says, you will need to mix the milk with the powder. Is
there any object in the game which might contain milk? With a large rock,
it can be SMASHED. Remember, however, that you will need something to
contain the milk. Make sure you do it in a dark place, however. Do you
recall an area underground where the only source of light was a very small
window?
