MYSTERY OF SILVER MOUNTAIN
Chris Oxlade and Judy Tatchell
Walk Through by Dorothy Millard (C64 Version)
Notes:
1. When you save your position you appear to lose a coin each time. Also sometimes the save
doesn't work properly. Sometimes coins just seem to disappear for no apparent reason. To get
around this coins problem, list line 4490 and change F(44)=4 to the number of coins you wish - I
suggest =10, then if you forget something you can go back for it.
2. To make the boots last longer list line 1200. IF F(39)=5, and change the 5 to whatever number
you wish - I suggest 12.
3. When you give the coin to the troll and the apple to the pony make sure you type in the singular,
ie. COIN not COINS and APPLE not APPLES (otherwise the troll or the pony take them all).
4. In some locations objects to be examined are not mentioned in the location description. However
these are shown in the book from which the game was typed.
5. At various points throughout the game you will be given a number. Make a note of it as it is
needed later in the game.
6. Magic Words - The magic words are listed in the book shown of the picture of the library, with a
graphic representation beside each one.
* GUIDE - Crossroads (the clue is an up arrow).
* AWAKE - Fountain (the clue is an eye in the picture in the book).
* HELP - High walled garden (the clue is an outlined "C" in the picture in the book).
* PROTECT - Stone Circle (the clue is a circle of nine dots representing the stones).
* LEAD - High pinnacle (the clue is a horizontal arrow in the picture in the book).
