BARD'S TALE: TIPS FROM THE UNDERGROUND

(Screenshot)

  • Each of the 16 mazes is set up on a 22 by 22 grid.
  • Explore every square as there are plenty of specials.
  • Explore the sewers, Catacombs and Castle in that order! You should be 9th level before entering the catacombs.
  • Night-time is especially nasty. Rookies stay indoors!
  • Minimize damage by killing of all but one monster in either of the first two attacking groups.
  • Fill the special slot and take some heat off the party.
  • Monsters will usually attack your most vulnerable characters first, unless one of the party represents a significant threat.
  • Attributes of 17 and 18 can make a difference to a characters abilities.
  • Develop a Sorceror, Wizard and Archmage fast.
  • Beware the Doppelganger. It enters your party and looks just like one of your members.
  • Make sure some of the party carry less than 8 items, otherwise you will be unable to pick up any new magical items in the dungeons.
  • There are no cursed items. And the more it costs, the better it works (usually)
  • Locate traps, second sight and sorcerer sight all identify traps within 30 feet. Trapzap disarms traps within 30 feet.
  • Cast a long lasting bard spell before entering a tavern. Its like getting a free spell.


    A-Z MULTIFACE POKES II

    Another great list of multiface pokes for you to use with your Emulator. To enter hem, simply use the POKE-IT utility that came with last months issue, or use the multiface option with the registered version of Z80. Then just enter the address and value listed below to get the desired effect. If more than one poke is listed with an effect they must all be entered for it to occur. Unless otherwise stated, all POKES are for infinite lives. An x in the POKE means a number in the value 1-255 can be entered in its place. A (?) means the effect of the POKE is unknown (!)
