LOADING: 128K users select 48K mode LOAD "" (ENTER) PLAYING THE GAME... The first thing you should do is to explore the complex and find the four magical gifts that Venus has hidden for you - these will endow you with supernatural powers...look for the POWER BOOTS which enable you to jump...the RETURNING WARHAMMER, for slaying the myriad monsters and ghouls in the corridors...a TRANS-DIMENSIONAL BAG which nullifies the mass and size of an object, allowing you to carry it easily...and a MYSTICAL HELMET which destines you to be showered with gifts from the watching gods. THE TREASURES FROM THE GODS Once you have the Mystical Helmet, gifts from the gods will occasionally be bestowed upon you while you are in the corridors of the complex. Gifts could be: TELEPORT KEYS for using the teleports...MERCURY'S WINGED SHOES for running more swiftly (only temporarily)...a PARALYSER to eliminate monsters in the corridors ...GOLD to buy things from the traders...and ESP ACTIVATORS which, when taken to the ESP Orbs (in certain rooms), will guide you towards the next GUARDIAN'S SPIRIT (GREEN means right direction, RED means wrong direction) ALSO STARRING IN THIS GAME... TRADERS -- Bodiless creatures with winged ears -- you can buy things from the with your gold (extra lives, paralysers, teleport keys, information) or you can gamble with them! Run headlong into a trader to activate him. ENERGY SPHERES -- Fuzzy balls that are found in some of the rooms -- they home in and kill you, unless you can jump on top of them. GUARDIANS -- In the corridors your way will sometimes be blocked by one of the 5 EVIL GUARDIANS. The GUARDIANS can only be vanquished by capturing their spirits, which are hidden in rooms in the complex. Every time you capture a Guardian's Spirit you will be thrown into the DeadZone -- if you survive you are awarded a bonus life.
