VOLCANIA

Another change of outfits and an almost cleaned out knapsack! Pick
up all starfish, seashells and sand dollars and rocks that you
see.  You should find the familiar stick lying on the shore. Head
east until you meet an elderly couple. Talk to them. (You don't
need the quill pen or empty flask, unless you want to do more
extensive exploring and practice some spells... You can collect
the ingredients for the Flying Red Shoes spell on the surface of
Volcania, make the shoes and use them... but they don't help you
get to the center of the world.)

The elderly couple will ask you to buy a map to the center of the
world. Find the purchase price (six sand dollars) by walking
around Volcania. Chat with Jessica when you see her. Ignore the
official looking man sitting at a desk (unless you want to be held
up on the surface of Volcania a long time. Also ignore the smarmy
guy on the couch (unless you want to practice the Flying Red Shoes
spell).  Return to the elderly couple and pay for the map. Then
they will ask you to pay for registration for an anchor stone (six
starfish). When you have collected the purchase price and paid for
registration, they ask for payment for insurance forms (six
seashells). When you have paid the insurance, they will tell you
to jump down one of the vents!  You should have two rocks in your
inventory. Go to one of the two large hot air vents and jump in.
You land in the Lava Cavern.

Pick up the two rocks. Go west and pick up the flask. Notice the
door to the anchor room and go east until you find the stick. Go
east and walk over the green bridge. Start climbing the green
steps, stopping to pick up the lead heart. Turn the lead into gold
using the alchemist's magnet. Then throw the stick to the baby
dinosaur. Do this twice. Now go over to the hot air geyser and
fetch some black pebbles. Pick up the third rock.

Return to the Tyrannosaurus Rex and take some crystal fuzz from
the palm leaves. Now you can make a teddy bear. Put the black
pebbles, crystal fuzz, and gold heart in the cauldron. Fill the
empty flask with the blue potion and click the flask on Zanthia. A
teddy bear!  Now climb on the T Rex. After your ride, you have a
red rag. Go to the anchor door screen. Leave and return until the
dinosaur is facing toward the anchor door. Then pick up the fourth
rock and go the anchor door. Use the red rag on the dinosaur...

So, the real problem is with the Wheels of Fate! Pick up the
parchment and put it in your spell book. Now you've got to get out
of here by your own means. The only way out is to go up the way
you came down. So you have to cause an eruption and find a safe
way of being carried up by it. Put a rock over the vent in the
anchor room.  Go east and put a rock on the vent by the green
bridge. Now place a rock on the vent next to the green steps.
Return to the screen with the anchor door. Place the last rock on
the vent near the unstable bubbling lava and walk on to the rock
on top of the bubbling lava.

ENCHANTED FOREST

Pick up a flask from where you landed. Check out the terrain. Note
the big flint rock and the trees blocking your path. Pick up the
pinecone. Go west and meet the armored guard! He will tell you
that the trees are musical. He won't let you cross the bridge so
you must distract him. Time to check the spell book. Let's try the
snowman spell. Pick up some snow, the twigs and moss. Pick up the
rolling stone and return to the flint rock. Make charcoal by
placing the twigs near the flint and clicking the rolling stone on
the flint. Place the snow, moss and charcoal in the cauldron. Fill
the empty flask with the potion. Return to the armored guard.

Click the potion on the guard. The guard will leave. Pick up the
walnut from the hollow at the end of the bridge. Walk over to the
dented statue. Check your spell book. One of the newer pages
suggest some ways of doing a good deed. Brighten up the statue by
using the alchemist's magnet on him. Take the drum and jacks out
of the box. Take the acorn. Throw the jacks to the people being
chased by a foot... and you hear something about the origins of
the evil wizard's hand, the left Hand, now heading for the Wheels
of Fate!

Return to the trees and place the drum on the stump. Walk past the
trees to the tram.

Talk to the squirrel. You can't get the squirrel to operate the
tram for you and he won't let you operate it. You'll have to get
rid of him. Give him the pinecone, walnut and acorn. Put the
rolling stone in the treadwheel. Click on one the tram cars and
Zanthia will climb in the next one.

MOUNTAIN TOP

Notice the child's lollipop. Now visit the Hunter' Lodge. Talk to
the hunters. They won't let you borrow their equipment until
they've caught the abominable snowman. Abominable snowman? Check
the spell book. Pick up the flask. Take some musk from the ox's
head.  Pick up a cannon ball. Go outside and take the feather
duster from the side of the tram station and pick up some snow.
You need the lollipop to substitute for sugar for the spell. How
can you distract the mother? Turn the cannonball to gold using the
alchemists' magnet.  Then give the gold cannonball to the mother,
Take the child's lollipop. Make the abominable snowman potion by
putting the snow, lollipop, musk and feather duster in the
cauldron. Fill the empty flask with the yellow potion. Click the
flask on Zanthia and she will turn into an abominable snow woman.
Go into the Hunter's lodge ... and you get kidnapped by the real
abominable snowman!  Go outside and break off three icicles. Not
again! The abominable snowman is really in love! Go outside again
and you will see the hunters. The hunters won't go inside to the
abominable snowman, so you will have to make the abominable
snowman come out. Go inside again. Take the flask from the rack of
bottles and pick up the box of candy. Take the bottle of cologne.
Get some feathers from the pillow on the couch. Make another
abominable snowman potion using the icicle, candy, cologne and
feathers. Go outside and use the potion on the hunters. Now climb
up to the path using an icicle.  Head east.

MYSTICS' CABIN & RAINBOW BRIDGE

The rainbow machine is broken! How do you fix it? Well what does a
rainbow look like? Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo,
violet.  Seven colors and seven empty flasks. So let's fill them.
First read the notice. All the ingredients needed to make the
potions are in the large inventory on the right and all the spells
are in your spell book apart from one. All ingredients are in the
inventory but you must operate the three levers to reveal all the
ingredients. There are eight different displays as each of the
levers has two positions. Now you have to find an empty flask to
transfer potions from the cauldron to the rainbow machine flasks.
Drink the hot water.

Make the indigo potion by putting the amethyst and blueberry in
the cauldron. Fill the sixth flask, on the rainbow machine, from
the left.  Now you have to make the other potions as follows and
transfer them to the correct positions in the rainbow machine.
Make sure you flush the cauldron between making each potion:

Red Potion Spell: Flying Red Shoes
Ingredients: Hot Air, Feather of Snipe (Quill),Red Leather

Orange Potion Spell: Sandwich spell
Ingredients: Mustard (Vinegar and Ground Radish), Ground wheat,
Cheese, Lettuce

Yellow Potion Spell: Abominable Snowman
Ingredients: Snow, Musk, Feathers, Sugar (Lollipop)

Green Potion Spell: Swampsnake spell
Ingredients: Windywoof (Gnarly Bark), Smell of Eggs (Sulphur
Rock), Onion, Lizard Tears (Reptile Tears), Toadstool (Furniture
type stool), Hot Water

Blue Potion Spell: Teddy Bear
Ingredients: Fuzz (Crystal Palm Fuzz), Black Pebbles, Heart of Gold
(Use alchemist's magnet on Lead Heart)


Violet Potion Spell: Skeptic potion
Ingredients: Lucky Horseshoe, Rabbit Footprint, Sweet & Sour Sauce,
Lizard Tears (Reptile Tears)

When you have the rainbow machine working, go outside and take an
icicle from the cabin and use it to climb up to the rainbow.

After your encounter with Mr. Hand, walk east then down along the
Rainbow Bridge.

WHEELS OF FATE

You can't get past the light beam to the doors. Look at how the
beam is reflecting off a gold dish. Use the alchemist's magnet on
the gold dish. Now you can go through the doors.

Walk up the path on the left and you will find the wheels of
Kyrandia and an empty spindle. You need to repair this. Leave the
room and go up the path on the right.

This is an inverted version of the game, the Towers of Hanoi. The
aim is to pile the disks in order on the left to open the left
side and then the middle to open the middle. The right side does
not open.

The sequence for opening the mouths is below. Interpret the
notations below as follows: L -> M means move the disk on the left
to the middle. R -> L means move the disk on the right to the
left. To open the left mouth:
R -> L, R -> M, L -> M, R -> L, M -> R, M -> L, R -> L, R -> M, L
-> M, L -> R, M -> R, L -> M, R -> L, R -> M, L -> M, R -> L, M ->
R, M - > L, R -> L, M -> R, L -> M, L -> R, M -> R, M -> L, R ->
L, R -> M, L -> M, R -> L, M -> R, M -> L, R -> L.

The left mouth contains your stick.  To open the middle mouth:
L -> M, L -> R, M -> R, L -> M, R -> L, R -> M, L -> M, L -> R, M
-> R, M -> L, R -> L, M -> R, L -> M, L -> R, M -> R, L -> M, R ->
L, R -> M, L -> M, R -> L, M -> R, M -> L, R -> L, R -> M, L -> M,
L -> R, M - > R, L -> M, R -> L, R -> M, L -> M.

In the middle mouth you find a gear.  Return to the Kyrandian
wheels and place the gear on the spindle.  Use the stick to wedge
the gear in place ...

Kyrandia is saved!  But here comes Mr. Hand with Marko ...

As soon as you have control, click on the left of the screen to
avoid the Hand's attack. Do this a second time. When the Hand is
ready to attack the third time, Marko is trying to get free. Click
on the Hand and Marko and you will be able to dispose of the Hand,
together, once and for all.

Enjoy the closing scenes ...
