Ecstatica Walkthrough by Harry Maragos

First off, walk forward and turn to the right.  Keep an eye out for
the Wolfman, if he appears just run away and return to the same spot
later.  Do not try to fight him as he can only be destroyed with a
magical item.  Once the coast is clear, go into the first door on
your left. There should be some sort of key type sign, and you
should be able to see the church behind your character in the
background.

Enter the building, there should be an old Knight fighting with the
green Dragon. Walk towards the Dragon and it will fly out of the room.
Pick up the Knight's bludgon, then hang around and talk to him. Your
character will automatically pick up the knight and take him to the
building that is on your right when you begin the game.

Listen to the knight speak, he will explain about the evil that
has engulfed the village. Head to the shelves next to the door and pick
up the vegetable lying on the shelf.  This is one of the ingredients
you need for a magical spell. If the wolfman bursts through the door,
quickly jump into the barrel.  Eventually, he will leave the room.

Walk into the next room, and there will be a man lying on the ground
holding a key. You do not need to pick up the key because the Knight
has already openned the door for you.

Next, go outside, you should be back at the 'beginning' point of the
game.  Walk towards the open barn, keeping to the left.  Tread too
close to the middle of the path, and you will be knocked unconcious
by the Wolfman.  At the barn turn left and continue down the path.
If you are confronted by a blue dragon or the spider attack them
with the bludgon, they will die after three to five successful
hits.  However, if the Wolfman appears, hit him a couple of times
and he will back off. Again do not attempt to kill him, he cannot be
killed with ordinary weapons.

Once you reach the door that has a paved walkway open it and go
inside. There should be demon sitting at the foot of the stairs
drinking and belching.  The easiest way to kill him is to sneak
behind him (press F1) and hit him from behind.  Once he is dead
climb up the stairs.  You will be in a bedroom.  Pick up the diary
and you will find out some details about the witch.  Do not pick up
the teddy bear, you do not need it just yet.  Go up the next flight
of stairs and look at the book.  It will show you the other two
ingredients you need for the spell to turn into a beaver.  Touch
the open pot and you will automatically put the vegetable into the
device.

Exit the house and walk to the church next to the open barn.  Enter
the church and get the little stick figure thing that is on the ground
near the hanging priest.  Return to the room with the spell device and
add the stick to the pot.

Go back to the church and grab the bible. Head back to the doorway
that leads to the spell device.  Go left down the alley, and continue
walking until you find an opening that will lead to vegitation and grass.

At this junction you will see a person hanging upside down on a cross.
Face the person on the cross and head right. You will see another person
on a cross.  Head right again and this will lead down a path. In
the distance you will see beggar walking in front of a small well
fortified Abbey. At this point the Wolfman might try to attack you
from behind, if he does, just run towards the abbey.

Once you get to the abbey, you should read the book automatically.
This will allow you to enter the abbey.  Drop the bible and enter
the monastery.  Grab the Holy Relic that the two monks are
worshipping.  The monks will turn on you but unfortunately you will
have no choice but to kill them.  Make sure that the monks do not have
a chance to lock the doors.

Walk outside of the Abbey, and down the path towards the
town. There will be a flower, drop the relic and pick up the flower.
It is the last part of the magic potion.  Return to the room where
you put the other two ingredients, but instead of using it just yet,
drop the flower, and pick up the teddy bear.

Go outside again and head towards the open barn (next to the church).
Walk inside the Barn, and you should automatically throw the teddy.
At this point, the girl will start talking to you. When she asks you
to follow her do so.  She will try to lead you into a hole in the
wall but unfortunately you are too big to fit through.  Realizing
this, she will open up the Dungeon for you. Decend into the dungeon,
and you will be greeted with six skeletons. These are easy to kill.
Once they are dead another secret door will open, walk through it
and proceed down the stairs, until you get to the bottom.

Your character will freak out with what he sees and will run back to
the top. Go back to the bedroom where you dropped the flower. pick
the flower up, and place it in the device.  The potion will be
complete. At this point, you will drink the potion and turn into a
warped looking beaver. Return to the hole that the girl tried to
take you through. You can easily enter it with your new body.

Hop down the little hallway until you get to some stairs, Here
you should turn back into a human. Kill the gnomes if you want, then
go up the stairs. You will open a trap door and there will be an old
man waving a sword. Hang around for a bit and he will drop it. Pick
up the sword. You do not have to kill the man.  Collect the relic
from where you left it last.

Go outside, and go back to where the path leads in two directions,
the person hanging upside down on the cross). You can either fight
or avoid the two Minotaurs.

Head towards the castle, take the steps down to the fountain.  Walk
past the fountain and keep heading in that direction. At the lake,
stand on the rock, you will automatically throw the sword into it.
The Lady of the lake will knight you. Turn around and head back
towards the fountain.

Walk down the path from the fountain towards the single house.
Inside this house you will find the lovestruck witch.  You can use
the broom to fly around the village. If you find the witch give her
a couple of hits.  She will love you for it.  Head towards the
castle.

At the castle do not take the front entrance, use the side entrance
instead. The Wizard will welcome your new knighthood and tell you to
go to the tower.  Proceed to the top of the tower and read the spell
book.  You will need both items to create a fireball wand.

Head straight down the tower towards the dungeon.  At the bottom
there will be statue that will swing at you. Timing is needed to
avoid being hit. Keep going forwards, there will be two phantom
warriors that will try to attack you, just smack them around, they
die quick.

Proceed forward until you get to the room that has "X" shaped
staircases. Walk towards the RIGHT side of the room (the one with
the fire breathing stone dragon). Take the stairs down. If you go
the other side, a spike will come up and kill you. Once you are in
the centre of the first two sets of stairs, proceed down the next
flight of stairs in the same direction; that is do not turn around.
If you do this you will not get nailed by the second spike.

Go down those stairs, avoid the spikes in the floor, towards the
center room. There will be two coffins standing on end and a hole
in the ground.  If you fall into the hole, you can avoid fighting
the first skeleton.  Walk past the coffin opposite the hole and the
coffin door will open.  A skeleton wearing armour will appear. Grab
the armour and go to the outside of the inner room (the floor with
the spikes) and pick an entrance that has gargoyles around it.

There are three entrances.  The first entrance is the door with the
open grill.  This takes you to the torture chamber. Avoid this
door, as one of the guards will jump you from behind and knock you
unconcious.

The second entrance leads to the pleasure room.  You will see two
females relaxing and two naked guys fanning an empty bed. You can lie
down on the bed they are fanning.  This room will contain two exits
besides the one you came in.  One will be a stairwell going down.
(The room view will show you at the top of the stairs with the
'Camera' being at the very bottom).  Do not go there just yet. The other
exit, located behind the two ladies is a deathtrap. If you go through
this doorway you will be impaled on a spear.

The third entrance will contain a red dragon inside.  Kill the dragon
and walk through the door.  At this point you should be only carrying
the relic.  Walk inside to meet a green creature.  Listen to the creature
and he will tell you your destiny lies behind the demon's head.
Pick up the book and head back up to the top of the castle.

Leave the castle through the side door again and follow the path to
the lake.  Avoid the nymph as her music will put you into a sleep.
Keep following the path until you get the stone statues forming a circle.
Stand on the pedestal in the centre of the circle and you will create
the fireball spell.

If you have not done so, you can use the wand to kill the minotaurs as
well as the annoying wolfman. Revenge is so sweet.  Return to the
tower and climb down the stairs until you get to the pleasure room.
Climb down the stairs where the view is from the bottom looking up.
Tou will enter the throne room.  There will be a duplicate of yourself
waiting.  The only way to destroy your alter ego is to fire a fireball.
Talk to the king for a few minutes, then run back to where you picked
up the magic book. The demon's head should now be gone and the door
will be open.

Climb down the swirling staircases until you encounter the devil
himself. He will invite you to his table.  Follow him and he will
talk to you.  Do not give him the fireball wand. Instead stand up
and walk away.  He will turn into a green dragon. Destroy him (10-15
blows should be enough) and you have finished the game.
