NOTE 1 :- If you are playing the adventure as a female your name
and favourite colour will be different from the ones in this
solution.

NOTE 2 :- It is best to save before you fight as the result is
random and you may get killed. If you do forget to save however
do not worry, just make your way back to your opponent and try
again as you do not lose points, but this of course can be a bit
tedious.

NOTE 3 :- When you encounter the Yellow Beast you will find that
it is necessary to be killed several times before you can obtain
the correct secret word to get past him.
