George's Hints and Tips

                  Sent in by George Smith

Leather Goddesses of Phobos

To beat Thorbast in a fair fight - start to fight him and when he
drops his sword, give it back to him. He'll be so overcome, he'll
do the job for you. You will then have to sort out the monster who
will then flee and leave you free to untie the woman and collect
another vital object.

To restore the King's daughter - lose the letter T from the
untangling cream by using the Tee removing device giving you
unangling cream. Apply this to the 45 degree angle with the blonde
hair.


King's Quest III

To leave the pirates' ship - make sure you have some money to give
them. There are some coins on the table in the robbers' treetop
hideout. Try putting your hand in the hole at the bottom of the
oak tree in the forest, you will find a useful rope ladder.

On the pirates' ship - listen to the mice in the hold. Get your
stolen possessions back by using the small crate. Wait until land
is sighted, then use the sleeping powder.

Fish

For a light source in the cab - search the rubbish.

To stop the parrot exploding - open the cage and go west. The
parrot will follow, then fly away.

What to do with the disc in the stump - wear the gloves in the
smithy, put disc in crucible, hold crucible with tongs, put it in
the flames. When the disc has melted, put the gold in the mould.
To cool it, go to the Cool Glade by a safe route, then crack the
mould with the hammer.

Shadowgate

To get rid of the wyvern - use the shooting star from the
observatory.

To get the flute in the garden - wear the gauntlet found in the
bucket in the courtyard.

To get the skeleton key from the lake - use the crystal sphere. To
regain the sphere, use a torch.

Guild of Thieves

To go down the shaft - dig in the sandy bank and wear the boots
there. The platinum brooch is also to be found there.

To find the secret lab - stand on the bed in the main bedroom and
use the cue to press the top button in the walnut cabinet.

To deal with the bank manager - say hooray to the mynah bird until
it learns to repeat it. Show the plastic card to the teller. In
the office, shake the bottle of champagne then drop it with the
cage. Once escorted out, block the keyhole with the gum. While the
bank manager is trying to get back in, the bird should say hooray
and the bottle will explode.  There is a random element here so
save the game before you try. Keep trying until successful.
