This version has been extracted from the Sam Coupe disk magazine Enceladus issue 5.
The Enceladus version of Part 2 had the password requirement removed.
NOTE
There's a random element that makes the game a bit difficult: you need the help of a child and
you
have to find him if he doesn't appear on his own (pay attention to the message
'There's a young man
wandering about' or 'Perchance you are my saviour' - if that happens, SAY BOY
"FOLLOW ME"); if he
doesn't appear right before you need him, move back and forth in the region where you are right
now
a few times (pay close attention to the locations) - eventually he will show up.
