Wizard of Akyrz

#1 Post by Hopalong » Fri Aug 21, 2020 5:45 pm

Hit a snag following the solution on CASA, using the AKYRZ.Z5 (yes, I know these can be buggy!)

S, KILL TROLL, save W, N, DIG, DIG (you find a scepter and a tunnel), GET *SCEPTRE*, SAY RAVEN

It seems the troll at this point is actually a goblin to kill. Bigger problem is when I try to get the sceptre (or scepter) it says 'beyond my power to do that'.

Other than not getting the Sceptre treasure, i've now solved it.

Try this sequence from the start:
W, Get spectacles, E, E, Get painting, Get chain, Fix chain, N, W, Examine stairs, Examine tapestry, Get sword, U, get rug, D, E, E, Go chest, Get shovel, E, Climb tree, Examine nest, Get orb, D, S, Say raven, Drop orb, Say raven, Wear spectacles, S, Kill goblin, Get key, W, N, Dig, Dig, Drop painting, Get sceptre.
This works for me in the Spectrum and BBC versions, with the caveat that the moment you enter the cave the goblin may kill you right away (this is random). If the Z5 version gives an error apart from this, then it is probably buggy.

Hi Exemptus
Following your guide, it still does it on the z5. We'll put it down to it being buggy :)
