CURSE OF THE SERPENT'S EYE Martin Freemantle Spectrum 48 Hints: You cannot use the screwdriver to take the trap. In fact, the screwdriver is one of the few unnecessary objects. The pitchfork is used more than once so use it to dig at the orchard before using it to get the cheese. You need to ride the donkey in a certain place for him to deposit you somewhere else. The hymn book provides a clue about how to decipher a grid you will later find. Note the numbers. FILL BELLOWS WITH (whatever may be useful). The smoke first, then the acid. The water is not needed. The card gives you the key how to decipher what the hymn book said. The bear can be useful if you lure him away with something tempting and have him sleep in a place where it's necessary to keep a door open. Use the lard on the hole, not on yourself. Listen to the parrot's advice. SEARCH and EXAMINE are not the same. Do both. The list of names is interesting but not really necessary to complete the game. You can lift some things to get at what you want. When giving does not work, try throwing. Try FLOGGING the eel. Fruits and vegetables are necessary. The tomato is good to have when someone appears to be hungry, the garlic when something is being amorous, the carrot when you think a rabbit may be nearby. Look in things after you open them, especially in the kitchen. You lose points for climb on the ladder, though you can still win the game. You need to LOOK UP or LOOK AROUND in certain places.
