bradhig1 Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 I got the Mattlock once but couldn't get back to town to save cause some dumb spike enemy wouldn't let me off the ladder and killed me. How do I refill magic and what are E points for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChildOfCv Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 You mean experience points? That's how you gain levels. You can restore mana by eating something. Or the hospital in towns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradhig1 Posted June 21, 2021 Author Share Posted June 21, 2021 trying to find the three fountains. Found the one in the sky. I missed the dragon shield and death magic and can't get them now because the wall won't let me backtrack to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChildOfCv Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 In some ways, it would seem that the game was rushed out the door. For instance, there is a full inventory worth of unusable items (you can only get them with a special save password, so that's not a problem at least). But it shows that the ambitions were likely far greater than what was released. In short, it is entirely possible that you are SOL if you don't have that one extra mattock. Do you have a password that you can use to go back to that village and try again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChildOfCv Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 On the good side, I re-reverse-engineered the mantra system. So it's possible to fix unwinnable situations by tweaking a password. I also made a list of the unusable items: Crystal Lamp Book Black Potion Fire Crystal Also, all of the items that are supposed to appear in your stats page can also be added as inventory items, which makes them completely unusable. faxanadu.py Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I don't think you can get stuck. I know what you're talking about, but it's not necessary to go back, just inconvenient at best if you wanted those expensive items early. It's a few hours work, and boring as sin, but it's doable and very useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradhig1 Posted June 22, 2021 Author Share Posted June 22, 2021 I can't get through a door at the top because I don' have a stupid rinig to open it and don't know where to find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go die before making it to the next town, you will revive back in the second town, and now the "Dwarf" will no longer give you another mattock either. Your only option then is to use a password that doesn't have the "Dwarf" defeated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're talking about the entrance to that multi-door castle, take the ladder up and continue. Eventually you'll find a guru who will hand you the last ring.

ChildOfCv Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Also, if you feel like cheezing your way through, here's a good password: 05j?0v?,GMxmNAUzMeA faxanadu.py Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 ahh ok well I guess I lucked into not having that horrible glitch (or forgot.) What's so cheesy about that password? Max stats/gear? That should make the game a bit more enjoyable, not exactly easier as it's nasty if you're powered up or not, and at times a bit confusing in exploration, so if anything that would be a help.

All gear and max level starting at the very starting town. Though I left out the pendant. Believe it or not, the pendant actually WEAKENS the Dragon Slayer. Don't know about the other weapons though, but it definitely turns some 2-hit kills into 3-hit kills for instance, as with the dwarf knights. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradhig1 Posted June 23, 2021 Author Share Posted June 23, 2021 I used game genie to get through due to all the backtracking and not wanting to keep buying red potions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChildOfCv Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 And YT just recommended this one to me. Pretty in-depth about game mechanics, getting free items, etc. Also confirms that you do NOT want to get the pendant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
