hints:
- to escape the Garthim just enter a direction, you will always out run
them as they are slow!
- the 'crystal bat' alerts the skeksis of where you are, and in turn, the
Garthim are informed of your location.
- Mystics are your friends.
- you don't have to get the following items as they do you no good: sling
& pouch
- there is no score in the DARK CRYSTAL adventure. The object is to heal
the DARK CRYSTAL
- see the movie (optional), many of the hints are revealed after seeing
it.
