Hints to my questions would be appreciated, Dave. Muchly. Not as good as the previous game.

What I meant to say in the last post is that I WON'T get it, but I did (but I cheated a little) by reading the listing.

Doreen, you need to have the feather. Killing the dragon with the sword doesn't work. The sword is one of those red herrings.

Don't obfuscate too much. Doreen and I have a history of writing when we are really stuck. A while back we caused a kafuffle on this forum, so I am wary about giving too direct of an answer, but some hints can be so obscure... (like some of the ones in this game).

BTW, I am writing a solution with ...

Write me too Juan. I have a feeling I will get the last puzzle.

While I'm not wuite there yet. all I could think of was being in the desert and saying "I feel thirsty."

We need to dig in three places, for the crown, the hilt and the key.

I too am stuck at the door. Maybe at the bottom of the pit (not the one with the newspaper) we wait? or call for help?

Problem is the limited number of objects one can carry, (I think we need - at least - the ladder, the lit lamp ...

Peculiar game. Seems to have few verbs. Lots of stuff you can pick up.

In the farm you need soap to fash.

I presume the bones are needed for something since they're not easy to get to.

You can't bail with the pot, so I'll try the bucket.

The women's shoes. I though I tried getting into the ...

Ditto to all the things mentioned above.

East bank is a no go.

I haven't found the wizard. So if the dry well is where we need to be, then we have to get out of the caves somehow. But how?

Yes, I figured out the rope. But what to do down there?

I also haven't found the brass key and the Crown ...

I'm slowly catching up.

Is there anything to find in the desert?

I've tied the rope to the pit, but how to get down?

Is it necessary to return to the dwarf and give him the apples? The reason I ask that is that there are a limited number of moves after you do that and the curse causes you to die ...

Crumbs, Doreen. Can you kinda slow down a bit? I can't keep up. Glad there is Dave on board who can crack the code and play along with you. I am swamped with work and will join you when I can. I have upgraded to faster Internet, but as expected, there are problems. I'll chat again eventually.

Lord love us!!! The speed with which you folks are progressing is such that I will wait for a new game. Yes, Doreen you can continue to "clean up" you unsolved games, as long as you both will return the favour to me as I have a stack as well.

See you when my work responsibilties lessen, and I can ...

When you examine the door it says in the centre is a circular glass. Do return to the altar, move it, wait until the sunlight beams down and, using the lens, shine the sunlight.

You'll need the lens at the top as well.

But be prepared for a disappointment.

This is one long game.

Lots and lots of locations.

Where are you stuck?
