Ok I managed to save the game to the image. State 0 has the manure in the start location.

Ok thank you I will try it.
Examine meal, it is not bad. I did try taking and eating the vegetables, but that didn't work.Uka wrote: Thu Oct 28, 2021 4:17 pm Hmm. I am not sure the spider's meal looks healthy and tasty enough for us...
Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia
Oh, great! So now we know how to get all 250 points?
Yes:

I have become "Super granny" lol
But are you sure that "Internal Error" is not the result of your, well, cheating with the manure? Maybe we have to obtain it in some other way, so that the game would not lead to that crash ...
Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia
the final walkthrough should be very precise as for the number of steps and dousing lamp in necessary places.
Yes a lot of turning off and on of the lamp is needed
It would be nice to find C64 or other version of the game to compare
Yes that would be very helpful
Still a lot of ...
Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia
There appears to be another bug :( when you try to walk past the Zombie carrying the purple sphere:

The ultimate 7 points you get when you take the purple cube after the gardener has left it. (of course I cheated in obtaining the manure :) because I don't know where to find the ...

Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia
This is a file with all the text visible in the program code if you are interested. But I don't think it will help solving the puzzles apart from providing a list of all the verbs and objects.
Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia
But I do not think there could be a real walkthrough yet, as we do not know how to get to Heaven, Geyser etc. without losing the coin - and how to get back from the Palace?
I do know how to enter heaven and go to the geyser without using the coin. cheating I have been in the location 62 of my ...
Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia
To do this I hacked the DOSBox save states. That's why I also visited the "dried up lake" and the "throne room" and managed to solve the puzzles there. Problem is my old DOSBOX version (2012) stopped working yesterday.
Solved this problem :D I downloaded another version of DOSBox (DOSBox-X ...
Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia
I wanted to take the furry ball to the castle, but you can't swim while holding it. But you can CHUCK BALL over the railings to get rid of it.
Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia
You said that we can get there the other way, but you have not yet removed that plug, right?
No I have not been able to remove the plug, but I made the map before I started to play the game. To do this I hacked the DOSBox save states. That's why I also visited the "dried up lake" and the ...
Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia
Another strange thing. The game knows the "verb" xerqvt, maybe it is a magic word or something written on the stone slab, but I did not find any use for it.
Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia
I have also half-mapped it,
I looked a bit closer at your map and noticed you only mapped the catacombs once but it are two different mazes. One containing the ruby and the carafe and the other the exit to the palace. To travel between the mazes you need to understand the hint given in the ...
Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia
Apart from the hints, I did write a walkthrough if you like I can share it as well.

Re: Catacombs/Cornucopia
Hi guys!
I am the person who reviewed "Catacombs" for Old-Games.ru, but was stuck with the spider, Dracula and the geyser :)
I have also half-mapped it, getting only 73 points out of 250. I attach my map, if it could be of any use for Alex to create the full one!
I also have a small fragment of ...
