Directions are given as NORTH, EAST, SOUTH, WEST, LEFT, RIGHT, FORWARD or BACKWARD or UP and DOWN. N W E S Some of the actions in the game are activated by function keys, they will be shown as <F1> .. <F10>. Save your game as much as you like. It will prove to be the best approach in case that you have forgotten something or worse you DIE !. In this particular game it's very handy to have many pieces of paper, or just one big one, nearby so you can write all sort of things like hints etc. down. It's also virtualy impossible to play this game without the manual. **************************************************************************** As you start up the game see the intro at least once and pay attention to the clues given. Or just watch the graphics and enjoy the sound. Well off to the game !! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The beginning: ============== IN THE CASTLE: -------------- You'll find yourself inside camelot standing on a floor plan of the castle. You can walk around by using the cursor keys or the mouse. When you reach a certain room, a message window will appear. You can enter the room by pressing ENTER or just click the mouse. First go to merlin's room. It's the little tower room on the right. The big tower room beneath it is your treasury. Enter merlin's room. "LOOK AT ROOM", "LOOK AT OBJECTS", "LOOK AT WIZARD", "ASK ABOUT GAWAINE". "ASK ABOUT GALAHAD", "ASK ABOUT LAUNCELOT", "ASK ABOUT QUEEN". "TALK TO MERLIN", leave the room and go to the queens bower. "LOOK AT BOWER", "LOOK FLOWERS". Walk over to the rose, "GET ROSE". "ASK ABOUT THE MESSAGE OF THE ROSE", "TALK TO QUEEN" 4 times. "KISS GWENHYVER" as much as you like. But after a few times it gets boring. She's not into any major loving at this time. Well back to some serious adventuring again. "ASK ABOUT LAUNCELOT". Leave the room and go to your own room. It's to rooms to the left from the bower. "LOOK ROOM", "LOOK CLOTHES", "CHANGE CLOTHES", "GET PURSE". Leave the room and go back to merlin's room. "ASK ABOUT THE GRAIL", "LOOK AT MAP".

Walk over to merlin's desk and "LOOK DESK", "LOOK AT SCROLL", "READ SCROLL", "GET SCROLL". Walk over to the table, "GET BEAKER", "GET FLASK". Merlin is a bit pissed off because you can't keep your hands to yourself. Just "APOLOGIZE" or restore your game. You did save your game didn't you. You didn't save it ?. So what's the point of writing a good advice at the beginning of all our solutions if you don't pay any attention to it. Well life sucks, once a janitor always a janitor ???. Oops wrong solution. Now walk to the chest and "OPEN CHEST", "GET LODESTONE". Leave this room and go to the treasury.
