OK, I'M BACK AGAIN WITH HOW TO SOLVE THE DARK CRYSTAL, HI-RES ADVENTURE #6
NOW, AS BEFORE EVERYTHING IN "QUOTES" IS A DIRECT COMMAND, AND EVERYTHING
INSIDE A [BRACKET] IS A DIRECTIONAL MOVE. (NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, WEST)
I'LL START OFF WITH SOME BASIC STUFF AND THEN GET TO THE GOOD STUUF.
1ST- GETTING STARTED
1. TO ESCAPE THE GARTHIM JUST ENTER A DIRECTION, YOU WILL ALWAYS OUT RUN
THEM AS THEY ARE SSSLLOW!

GARTHIM ARE INFORMED OF YOUR LOCATION
3. MYSTICS ARE YOUR FRIENDS
4. THE FOLLOWING ITEMS YOU DON'T HAVE TO GET AS THEY DO YOU NO GOOD:
SLING & POUCH
5. THERE IS >>NO<< SCORE IN THE DARK CRYSTAL ADVENTURE. THE OBJECT IS TO
HEAL THE DARK CRYSTAL
6. SEE THE MOVIE (OPTIONAL) MANY OF THE HINTS ARE REVEALED AFTER SEEING IT.

---------------------------------------
AT THE START OF THE GAME JUST TRY TO MOVE IN >>ANY<< DIRECTION. A MYSTIC

BROOK", THEN [W]EST, "CUT PAD", [E,E,E,E,N,N] AND "USE PAD" (AT SWAMP)
AFTER YOU GET OFF THE PAD GO [N,E]. YOU WILL GET CAUGHT UP IN SOME VINES.
JUST START TYPING DIRECTIONS UNTIL THE DRIVE TURNS ON AND THE PICTURE
CHANGES.... A LONG ARM W/AN EYE WILL BE THRUST UP TOWARD YOU..... TYPE
"SPEAK BEING", NEXT TYPE "YES", AND THEN "MOON DAUGHTERS" (ANSWER TO THE
RIDDLE). NOW TYPE A RANDOM DIRECTION AS IT WON'T MATTER BECAUSE IT BREAKS
INTO THE MOVE AND GIVES YOU 'BEFORE JEN CAN REACT...' MESSAGE. SHE WILL
TAKE YOU TO HER OBSERVATORY, AND THEN ASK YOU WHAT YOU WANT. TYPE "CRYSTAL
SHARD" AND SHE WILL BRING YOU 4 COLORED SHARDS.... NOW "PLAY FLUTE", AND
THEN "GET BLUE" (THE BLUE CRYSTAL SHOULD PLAY BACK THE TUNE THAT YOU ISSUE)
NOW GO [S]OUTH, !!GARTHIM RAID!!, TERRIBILE GARTHIM STORM AUGRA'S LAB. SO
TYPE "GO WINDOW", THEN [S,W] AND YOU WILL FALL INTO A BOG... TYPE "HELP";
KIRA & FIZZGIG WILL HELP YOU OUT.
