Frequently Asked Questions ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Q. Manannan has appeared and given me an order. Should I do it? A. Yes! Manannan will check every few minutes to see if Gwydion has completed the task. The game will be over if the task is not completed. Q. When does Manannan go on the journey? A. Manannan leaves the house when the timer is on five minutes. Q. When does Manannan return from the journey? A. When the timer is on thirty minutes. Q. I can't seem to walk down the cliff without falling off. How do I do it? A. It can be tricky. Make sure you have num lock turned off on the keyboard, and use the 1, 3, 7, and 9 buttons to walk diagonally, which should make things easier. It may also help to set the game speed to slow. Q. I try to show the mirror to Medusa, but she turns Gwydion to stone as soon as she appears. How do I defeat her? A. Make sure that you face away from Medusa when you show her the mirror. Q. How do I enter the three bear's house? A. Keep exiting and entering the area until the three bears go for a walk. You can then enter the house. Q. I've reached into the hole and climbed the ladder to the bandit's shack, but whenever I enter it the bandit pushes me out! How do I enter the shack? A. Save the game at the bottom of the ladder. Climb the ladder and enter the shack. If the bandit is awake, restore the game and walk to a different area. Return to the area, reach into the hole and climb the ladder. Enter the shack and the bandit should be asleep. Q. I'm trying to swim to the island after jumping off the pirate ship, but the shark keeps getting me. How can I avoid the shark? A. Stay close to the bottom of the screen as you swim east. As soon as the shark starts swimming toward Gwydion, move south to the next screen, and then north to the previous screen. The shark should have left the area. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 6.
