Having replayed the game, I recall what my problem was and why I thought the game was bugged. I cannot find the bag of coins.

Can you tell me where they are?

Yes, the random elements are annoying.

I have the lantern, bead, helmet, princess, medallion and am in the mirror room with the helmet whispering "Kraldor".

It's been so long ago that I can't really remember what I did.

Yes, I have a list of objects.

I have a message to myself to go back to an ...

landfall on rollus

I know that I haved posted help on many Spectrum games. This is because I can find them easily. I have looked up other venues, but sometimes it is difficult to separate the arcade games from the text adventure games.

This game is available at WOS. I am unsure whether there is a bug in this game, or ...

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

I tried Insert ...in... but the hint said "to what?"

In my opinion, the first author should be the one that contributes the most. Since Doreen and I were both stuck, and you found how to cross the rapids, I nominate you.

Writing it up - that's just a ...

Somehow I just knew I'd have to write one more time.

You have to wear all the objects. I have another verb problem - how to wear the last item. I thought the thongs would be helpful for this. The hint says "many uses". One of those verb noun to noun - one final hint please. I've tried INSERT, TIE ...

Hurray Alastair. Glad to know my faith is not misplaced 8)

OK - Doreen and I will soon catch up.

P.S. Actually Wordpad is better - easier to read.

I am going to check north of the broken tree, as you suggested.

Other than that, I am stuck.

I got that message too. And no, I don't know what it means. Do you need a companion? The horse? Does that mean you need to find that object (which you need to find with the hints already given?) I can't find anyone to take with me.

I still believe that we need to find at least one of those objects ...

You don't need the horse for this. Once you have the shoes and are wearing them, get to the rocky path. Then go NW, W, W. I'm not really sure whether you need the horse for this. But in my opinion, that is getting close to the end, so one needs to find more treasures before one goes there.

On the ...

Maybe. That's by the lion of course. But the "blocked" message appears all the time when you can't go somewhere. I have received those messages more than "I can't" ones.

Are those the areas we need to explore further? I don't remember getting many, if any, of those messages. Should we be exploring ...

Thanks for those hints, but, guess what - I managed to eventually figure it out. And yes, the knife was useful.

Anyway I have caught up with you and now have three objects.

It seems like the Sun God items really can't be used.

The horse shies at several places in the desert, and always dumps you ...

A torch?

Doreen, what items? Twigs? Flint? And...the blanket? Haven't tried that yet.

Alastair -
one arrow for the lion - so I now have 5.
one arrow for the beast past the canyon
and, if you say so - one for the green eyes

But I have no light. Not to mention permanent light. I have tried using ...

The action you want is not "subtle". Quite the opposite.

In the boss' studio, you see something. Can you open it? Do you have a tool you can use to get into it?

Remember - you need both of the items you got in the other location.

Thank you both.

Well, I've explored some more, but haven't caught up yet, as I only have two items.

At the green eyes. Should one do something here, and if yes, I need a hint.

I presume the rapids are a no go?

Not sure where, and how to light the fire, nor where.

Nor what to do at the sand. I ...

A verb rather than a noun???

Thanks folks.

OK - I'll catch up to you soon.
