WHERE IS ZEUS
By Frank Fridd
Adventure Workshop
Spectrum 128
This is a good game, with straightforward puzzles and solutions, with one
exception in Part 2.
Zeus has disappeared and there is no rain and you decide to bring life back to
the island by finding Zeus.
Hints:
Part 1:
Need a light source? Check out the policeman.
Can't get into the club? Persist.
You need to LOOK UNDER <object> three times in this part.
The balloon takes off without you in it? Tie it down first.
You need the spade and the oilcan more than once.
Before you take off in the balloon, make sure you have gifts for the gods (six)
and a plank.
Part 2:
Manoeuvring through the clouds is very difficult. You do not have any objects
with which to map it. You need to find your way until you see a hole in the
clouds. Find your way to the mountain top by going in the opposite direction to
the edge. There are three locations all in a row with a mountain top. From the
northernmost location, go south twice and east twice. Then wait.
Can't give Dionysus anything? DROP <your gift>.
You need to feed Cerberus' three heads to get past him. So divide the food. How?
The sword doesn't work? Visit Ares.
Ares kills you? Do something else rather than kill him.
Can't get the eagle to help you after you free him? Maybe giving him a gift will
help.
Part 3:
Can't lift the full box? Try emptying it.
Don't leave the crèche without checking out the horse, particularly a part of
him around his neck (it is not mentioned directly).
Check out the goalposts. One of them is different. PULL it.
Find yourself locked in? Take the key with you.
Need a digging implement? There are no spades or shovels in this part, so you
will need to improvise with another tool. This implement has another use, later.
Don't be too much in a hurry to take the clothes.
There is a hole in the bucket? Fix it. Glue is a noun in this game, so try a
verb synonym.
Need a light source? You need to make a torch out of some materials you find. It
won't light? Maybe you can find some liquid that would make it flammable.
The light source doesn't help in the field. Put your hand in.
The running man calls the police on you? Maybe you can give him something? You
can't? Join him in his pursuit first.
You need to LOOK UNDER <object> three times in this part as well.
Can't get past the cat? Have you found something that cats like to chase? Can't
catch it? Have you found something in which you can carry objects?
