Labyrinths of LaCoshe
General Hints:
You need 379 points to enter Hades, completing the game in less than 136 moves
allows you to become Grotto Master and score 400 points.
Wave the sword to create the bridge.
The Grotto:
At the waterfall type THROUGH WATER to arrive at the Grotto.
The Grotto contains the lamp and the sword. Store treasure here. You can only
pass E if you are carrying no objects.
Any object dropped in the room above the Grotto falls through the hole in the
floor. That way you can use the narrow exit E of the Grotto and find the objects
awaiting your arrival.
The Caves:
Once in the caves, go E to the Troll Room and kill the Troll with the sword.
The keys for the grating can be found by going N, D, S from the Troll Cave. Go
E, W, W to get back. The grating can be found N, N of the 2nd Mirror Room.
Cyclops Room:
Give the wine skin to the Cyclops to make him fall asleep and you can visit the
thief's lair to retrieve your stolen property.
If you say 'Ulysses', the Cyclops gets so enraged that he charges through the
wall and opens up a way to the Grotto.
To go from the Cyclops Room to the Troll Room move N, D, S, S, E, W
Teleportation:
Once you have the necklace of numbers, you can enter - for example - JUMP TROLL
or JUMP GROTTO.
The Porcelain Egg:
Don't try and open the egg - this is a treasure. If you try to open it, you'll
destroy its contents. Allow the Thief to steal the egg.
He will take it to his lair, and open it, revealing a tiny jewelled bird.
Once the thief has opened the egg, you could try killing him (SAVE before
attempting) with the sword or knife. If you are successful, you will get the
thief's silver chalice.
Round Room and associated problems:
Don't try pushing the buttons in the Machinery Room until you have the plastic
pole, or you'll get a shock. The pole is at a Dead End in the twisty passage
maze, N, S, D from the Troll Room. The Machinery Room can be found S and S from
the Troll Room by solving the riddle, and then doing things in a bucket.
You can push 3 buttons. 2 of them reveal treasures as well as stabilising the
Round Room, and the third provides a surprisingly attractive experience.
Once the Round Room is stabilised, you can go N to the room with the skin of
wine, S to the Cold Room, E to the E-W path beside a ravine, W to the room with
the spade, U leads to the Troll Room, and D to the twisty passage maze.
Torch:
To get the torch, you first need the rope from the Very Chilly Chamber. From the
Troll Room, go E, N, N, E, E, D. To get back, you must go S, N, N, S, S, S.
Go to the gallery, tie the rope to the rail and go D to the torch room. Go to
the E side of the lake via the Round Room and then into the Small Room to get
the wrench and push Button V.
After that you can go to the Control Room, using the wrench to turn the bolt in
order to drain the lake. If you then throw the torch into the Cold Room, you'll
melt the snow and reveal another room containing a jade figure.
DON'T enter the Small Cave while holding the torch - there's a gas leak! You can
get the ruby by dropping the torch before going into the cave because you can
survive in the dark just long enough.
Shield:
Getting the shield involves taking the spade from the Damp Cave, going to the
Sandy Room and digging 3 times.
