I'm stuck. I got out of my room and have 4 spells eluminate, unlock, detect magic and scribe. by typing "get " you bring up a list of objects in the location that you can pick up and I found something in the telescope. How do I get past the fallen section of wall?
By the way how did you do the spellcasting dropdown menu thing?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
28 Oct 2009
Reach in the telescope. That will solve your wall problem.
You can do a drop down menu from the game screen under display. You can add menu items that tie into commands you set up.
Comment by AlexN94
28 Oct 2009
How could I use spells? Nothing happens when I write 'illuminate'.
Comment by AlexN94
28 Oct 2009
Ok, it's fixed, now is the problem, there was an error, when I type 'put on robe'.
Comment by Tim Hamilton
28 Oct 2009
Everyone one seems to have different ways of wording thing. I never thought of put on. Wear robe is the command I used.

Hmm, are all books in the library boring?
Comment by AlexN94

What's on the blackboard?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
28 Oct 2009
Basic alchemy 101. Use bucket of sand on glass maker. Use empty beaker on potion dispenser. Put beaker filled with fluid in mixer. You can also mix two potions together to from a new potion.

What about the two statues?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
28 Oct 2009
Ahh the statues.... I like this puzzle. have you examined them? You can fiddle with them. The heads shields and arms are movable. The game will tell you what position they are in. If you get it to the right one they will spring away from the doors. If you get stuck there might be a hint hidden somewhere in the second dormitory.
Comment by AlexN94
28 Oct 2009
Hmm. I can't find the second dormitory...
Comment by Tim Hamilton
28 Oct 2009
The second part of the dormitory. The elite student one. Northwest of delbat's dormitory. Search the beds, dressers and night stands.
Comment by AlexN94
28 Oct 2009
Hmm... Should I pass the door on the ground floor? If so, how should I do that?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
28 Oct 2009
Did you try the unlock spell? There must be a student left in there. knock on the door.
Comment by AlexN94
28 Oct 2009
Hmm, It doesn't works... I try to do what the note says, but when I'll raise the right arm, it's locked...
Left/right-up. are the arms? Are they?
left-up.left-middle-right.left-up-right.left-middle-left.right-up.
Means
Left arm up, left shield right, left head right, left shield left, right arm up?
Comment by GAMER!
28 Oct 2009
How do I get the portal to work?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
29 Oct 2009
Should go left arm,left shield,left head,left shield,right arm,right shield,right head,right shield,left arm,right arm.
Gamer did you look up portals in the library?
Comment by AlexN94
29 Oct 2009
Now I have four beads and 6 spells. I've readed about the portal in the library and I'm standing in the basement. What should I do now?
Comment by AlexN94
29 Oct 2009
I can't find the sand...
Comment by AlexN94
29 Oct 2009
My spell book!!! I've putted it in the dresser, and now I can't remove it again!... And I've locked the door...

What should I do to mix the potions?
Comment by AlexN94
29 Oct 2009
Ok, I've found a book about it, and it talks about a blue potion, but there's only a red and a yellow button...
Comment by Tim Hamilton
29 Oct 2009
Looks like you are going to need a blue label for the potion dispenser.
Comment by AlexN94
29 Oct 2009
And where is it? And what should I do with the songbird to get the scroll?
Comment by AlexN94
29 Oct 2009
One mor question: HOW SHOULD I MIX THE TWO POTIONS?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
29 Oct 2009
You have to put two potions in the mixer and pull the lever.
Remember beaker (filled with fluid) is not a potion until it has been put in mixer by itself first.
Comment by AlexN94
29 Oct 2009
And the songbird?
Comment by AlexN94
29 Oct 2009
How should I do to breath on the icewall?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
29 Oct 2009
You are spelling "breathe" wrong. At least I think so.
Comment by AlexN94
29 Oct 2009
What should I do with the songbird, and where is the blue label?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
29 Oct 2009
Have you gotten by the boars and into the village?

No, how should I do that?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
30 Oct 2009
Have you gotten the bremoval spell yet?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
30 Oct 2009
Oh and incase you can't read the spell instructions. You can reverse memorize spells. Which means you can get the spell in reverse. The command for that is

I currently have Bremoval but can't use it.
I found 5 beads but have no idea what to do with them.
I can't get past the beast in the cave.
I have no idea about the bird and the ent.
Could you point me in a direction pls?
Comment by AlexN94
30 Oct 2009
Hmm, it's a very strange spell... I can't do anything when I cast it...
Comment by AlexN94
30 Oct 2009
Pofke> Where do you find the fifth bead? One in the book in the library, one in a night stand, one has Delbat and one has Mercoz...

What am I supposed to do with the peg puzzle? I'm blind so I can't see the pictures.
Comment by Tim Hamilton
30 Oct 2009
Yes too much light. Is there a spell you can reverse to help you with that.
Btw alex I have a couple of visual puzzles in this one too. If you can't get someone to help you with them then e-mail me at wonderjudge22@yaoo.com and I will give you the solutions to them. If you have found the strange table when you look at it it has 16 slots when you use beads on it the slots get filled in.
Also in shipwrecked if you still need a solution for the slide puzzle I can help you with that too.

Hmm, where could I find som money?
Comment by pofke
30 Oct 2009
Nice one with the mouse Tim!
I really like the concept of the potions, it just takes so long to make them... The spells (and the reverse) are also a great touch. I'm really enjoying this!
Comment by AlexN94
30 Oct 2009

I have putted the sludge in the mixer, and now I can't remove it... What should I do?
Comment by AlexN94
30 Oct 2009
Yes... Haven't you?
Comment by pofke
30 Oct 2009
Sure, did the bird and the mouse. Now looking for ideas for the ent and the spiders. And the turtles for that matter...
Comment by AlexN94
30 Oct 2009
Pofke> What about the mouse?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
30 Oct 2009
For some reason when you make a container and check the box to make items removable it doesn't work. I don't know why. But as long as the sludge doesn't interfere with potion making then don't worry the bottle of sludge is useless in itself
Comment by AlexN94
30 Oct 2009
Ok... Now the problem is, I CAN'T USE THE MIXER.... I have no potions wich can be mixed together with the sludge, and if the sludge can't be moved, I cant make potions...
Comment by AlexN94
30 Oct 2009
Well, I begin again... Or began...
Comment by AlexN94
30 Oct 2009
What should i do with the spiders? I have solved the boys game and i have found 8 beads...
Comment by Tim Hamilton
30 Oct 2009
You need another spell before you can do anything about the spiders.
Have you gotten the oat yet? There is something you can do to that.
Comment by AlexN94

The trap door is tied down with rope. Is there a reverse for bind?
When sitting at the game table look under the table.
Comment by AlexN94
31 Oct 2009
Unbind doesn't works...
Comment by AlexN94
31 Oct 2009

You need to unbind the rope. 1 copper coin.
Comment by AlexN94
31 Oct 2009
But, I don't get anything when he say that I have win...
Comment by Tim Hamilton
31 Oct 2009
If you win you get another yellow bead. If you have some already you might not have noticed that you got it. Try playing again if he says 1 prize per customer then you have the bead from him.

Comment by AlexN94

How do I get the scroll out of the boulder?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
02 Nov 2009
You need a potion for the boulder. The violet one I think. I you need help with the potion mixing you can look up potions in the library.
Alex, put the broken shelf in the furnace and take the machine west with you.
Then the wizard can use it.
Comment by AlexN94

Now I have the rainbow potion. What should I do now?
PS. I can't scribe the scroll from the temple...
Comment by AlexN94

16 beads, 10 spells and 8 potions...
Comment by Tim Hamilton
02 Nov 2009
Have you found the strange table? Hint it's in a room.
Comment by Tim Hamilton
02 Nov 2009
Oh and a word to the wise after beating the strange table if you have gotten the rainbow potion. Save. Because if you go into the last part of the game without holding the correct stuff you will have to come back and make the rainbow potion again. And that's a pain in the butt.
Comment by AlexN94
02 Nov 2009
Is it in the tower? There are 18 rooms in it, and a yard outside... On the shore are 7 rooms: 2 outside and 4 inside the temple. In the forest and the town are: 5 in the forest, one between the forest and the town, three rooms outside and three rooms outside in the town. On the mountain are 5 outside and 2 inside... It is 45 rooms...

Comment by AlexN94
03 Nov 2009
Cast bind on the man in the alley, examine him and take the purse. Cast Enchant on the purse... And you have enough money to buy the lemon and play with street merchant...
Comment by Tim Hamilton
03 Nov 2009
You can't get stuck behind the trap door. You just need to do something about the rain.
When you finish the game don't forget to rate.
Comment by pofke
03 Nov 2009
OK! Now only find the potion and the table...
Comment by pofke
03 Nov 2009
Got the potion! Now where do I find the table? I read through all the descriptions in all the rooms but couldn't find anything about a table...
Comment by Tim Hamilton
03 Nov 2009
the table is in a "-room".
Comment by Alex-J
06 Nov 2009
Sorry I'm new at text-adventure. Can anyone give me a hint on how to leave your bedroom when your first stating the game? I've read the spells in my spellbook (but for somereason its too dark to read the actual spells). I've tried to move north, south, ect. I tried wait, and open door move to door. And other stuff like that.
Comment by Tim Hamilton
06 Nov 2009
First memorize then cast illuminate then open the dresser look at the dresser take the robe and then put on the robe. Then wait a bit the door will unlock. it's on a timer. then you can leave.
Comment by Tim Hamilton
06 Nov 2009
I mean wear the robe.
Comment by Alex-J
06 Nov 2009
Sorry, I know I'm missing something. I'm not sure how to memorize illuminate. I've tried memorize illuminate, use illuminate, read illuminate, speak illuminate, take illuminate, look at illuminate, memorize spell illuminate, illuminate memorize.
Comment by Alex-J
06 Nov 2009
I finally figured it out! Sory I didn't relize that "memorize" needed to be typed in by itself.
Comment by CJ592
09 Nov 2009
Hi tim. another fantastic game so far. but I have come unstuck.
Reading up people are talking about reversing spells, but I dont think I know how to do that. Is there something in game that I missed to let me know how to do it.
I have Bremoval, but cant use it. I have illuminate, unlock, detect magic and levitate. 4 yellow beads and access to the swirling portal. I am carrying the red orange and yellow potion, if that gives you a clue as to where I am.
Comment by CJ592
09 Nov 2009
D'oh. Forget that. I've just seen the tabe at the top. how long has that been there?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
09 Nov 2009
lol you didn't read the first screen. For spellcasting instructions type instruction or just use the tab from the drop down menu.
p.s. don't believe the control desk.
Thanks btw. I try to be glitch free but have found 2 so far in this onesince posting.
Don't put anything in your dresser and don't put the bottle of sludge in the potion mixer.
Comment by CJ592
09 Nov 2009
Wow. Thats clever. I like the way you make the table show the yellow beads
Comment by Tim Hamilton
09 Nov 2009
Thanks! =) I thought so at first but now that I realize alot of visually impaired people play these games I feel bad. In future games I am going to put an option in so that if you are blind you can still do the puzzles without the pictures.
Comment by AlexN94
10 Nov 2009
What should I do now? I have:
P the lever
D the marbles
G the chandelier
L the bridge...

Aaaargh! thats annoying. I am having trouble with my save game. I save just after lowering the drawbridge and entering the castle at the end. (after the hint to save) Now it's not loading.
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH.
Review by CJ592
10 Nov 2009
OH well. I will still rate this game. It has been fantastic! Great puzzles, some visual and all engaging. Spell casting is user friendly, but potion making can be tiresome.
This is definitely a 5 star game

10 Nov 2009
Thanks CJ! =) I hope you can finish. I have the load problem with all the games here unless I download the game saving it first then playing it from the spot I saved it at. When I click the open button after downloading instead of save I can never restore a saved game. I like the end sequence =(
Review by AlexN94
11 Nov 2009
I'm not finish, but I'll rate it now... A thing, wich is very nice, is the spell 'Bremoval' and 'Badder', I love them... An other thing is the spell menu, it's very ... hmm, good, how do you make it?
I love your games, both the story and the describtions, it's fantastic! I'll give it 5 out of 5 stars, and hope you'll make a new, great game...

Thanks Alex! Your almost done with wizard btw. I started working on wizard 2 but kind of got writers block I guess lol. So I am working on another one called barbarian. I am making this one a little easier than the other two and it asks if you are visually impaired at the begining so than when you come to a visual puzzle it will give you a description of it instead of displaying a picture.
Oh and CJ I don't know if you noticed but you can also put potions in the mixer or beakers in the dispenser by using them on it. So you can use the panes to make the potions. It is still tedious but less typing.
Comment by CJ592
11 Nov 2009
I always use the panes to do 'use A with B'. It is so much easier :)
I will try again with the end game, as I was thoroughly enjoying it. as Alex said, the Badder Bremoval stuff was great.
Your games inspire me to write more, so thanks. My last one was short (it was going to be longer but some of my ideas didn't pan out) however, it was different to my others. I try to make mine unlose-able (is that a word?) I think I may continue with that, as people seemed to appreciate it.

What should I do when he begins to cast the second spell? And, how many spells will he casts?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
11 Nov 2009
Cast the shield spell. Then he will attempt one more this one will be long and complicated.
Comment by AlexN94
11 Nov 2009
THe shield spell? Wich one are that?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
11 Nov 2009
Well I hate to tell you this alex but you are going to need to go back and make another rainbow potion. The shield spell you get when you go into the moat then southeast then north. You will be inside cell. You need to speak to the hole in the ceiling. Then you will have the scroll with the shield spell on it. But you need to do it before you pull the lever.

Could someone post a walkthrough for this game?
I've got 10 beads and 10 spells. I've done the shell game but I have no idea what to do next. I've drank the shrink potion and gotten into the mouse hole and can't figure out how to move the ball. Where do I get eyes for the statue head?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
12 Nov 2009
Drink a green potion. try and push the ball then talk to the mouse. The eyes you get from the small boy. If it will help I can post a list of beads and their locations in a bit.
Comment by Tim Hamilton
12 Nov 2009
Ok here are the locations of the 16 beads
1 in the chandelier in the library
2 Delbat gives to you after you tell him front doors are open
3 in the elaborate dormitory (search the mentioned items there)
4 On the dead body of mercoz in the courtyard
5 in a book in the library (note of mercoz tells you it's number)
6 in the mouse hole
7 in the crystal cavern
8 in the spiders web
9 in the pile of hay at the stables
10 in the basket of lemon drops in the church
11 get as a prize from the shell game
12 given to you by small boy
13 in the silt after stopping the rain in north wing of temple
14 in the north wing after using the golem
15 in the south wing after using the golem

I hope that helps.

I try to email you for the solutions to the visual puzzles but I get an automatic email message saying that that email adress doesn't exist. Could you put the solutions on here or something?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
12 Nov 2009
I got an e-mail from alex. hmm strange. but I suppose I should post them here as there sem to be a few more visually impaired people playing my games. I promise on the next ones there will be an option for that.
The solution to the peg game puzzle is...
Remove peg 6
jump 3 with 1
jump 2 with 4
jump 6 with 10
jump 3 with 1
jump 9 with 8
jump 6 with 10
jump 5 with 3
jump 8 with 7
And for the table puzzle when you use all 16 beads on it...
a1
d1
b3
b4
c3
c4
I think I will go ahead and post a solution for the slide puzzle on shipwrecked as well.

How did you make the player change into the golem?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
15 Nov 2009
Speak to it. Then when you want to go back to playing the wizard speak to the wizard.
Comment by GAMER!
15 Nov 2009
No I meant when you were creating the game, what did you do in script to change the player's character to the golem?
Comment by Tim Hamilton
15 Nov 2009
Oh lol. When you change characters I moved all the objects in inventory to a room called wizard1. then moved all the objects in a room called golem1 into inventory and vise versa. I made an object called yourself available and the golem unavailable and vise versa. I turned the golem2 flag on to indicate you were the golem. Then I made certain items with the property 'golem'. Therefore when you went to take something with the golem2 flag set if it did not have the property golem then your hands were too big and vise versa.

The drop down menu is on option under the display tab on the game screen. You can assign the menu options to commands you have set up.

Can't figure out what to do with the spiders or the ent. I have the following spells: Illuminate, Unlock, Scribe, Detect magic, Levitate, Bremoval, Enfeeble, Charm, Bind, & Enchant. I also have the ability to make all colored potions.
Also, I see reference in these comments to a "head" for the statue. I have the brain and two red marbles, but I don't know how to make a head.
Comment by Tim Hamilton
12 Jan 2010
All your problems are connected. The ent will get rid of the spiders for you if you put out the fire. To do this you will need to disenchant the bucket, empty it then fill it with water from the lake then enchant the bucket and use it on the fire.
If you need to make potions again after that follow the same procedure and fill the bucket with sand again.

Can't believe that I missed the trick with the broom and you even hinted at it in an earlier post...especially liked the subtleties with the puzzles and the imagary in the descriptions.
Excellent work and looking forward to wizard II hope the "writers block" won't last - try "bremoval" and then "unlock"

I hate asking for help but am somewhat bewildered. Why would a disenchanted, empty bucket shy away from water??

If it is shying away from the water then it may be enchanted.
Comment by Caseus

Nope. I disenchanted it in order to empty the bucket. Just to be sure, I just disenchanted it again and got the message "Nothing happens. It is not enchanted." Then I tried 'Get water'. "You go to fill the bucket with water. But the bucket shies away from it. ????"
Comment by Caseus
13 Mar 2010
Oh son of a....okay it's just a bug with the 'Get water' command. I just tried dragging the bucket onto the water and it worked. Great game by the way, easily my favourite text adventure outside the Infocom ones.

Hmm sorry about the bug but I'm glad you like the game. I loved the old infocom games I have the Infocom collection on cd. The only thing I'm dissapointed in was that they didn't add hitch hikers guide to the galaxy into the collection.

I think I found a glitch, I cast deluminate twice so they would stop clogging up my memory. and now no matter how many times I cast illuminate I cant get out of the room called darkness
Comment by Tim Hamilton
19 Mar 2010
Yep glitch internally when you cast deluminate it moves you to a room called darkness and when you cast illuminate it moves you to the last room you were in.
so when you cast deluminate twice it moves you from darkness to darkness and the last room you were in was darkness so when you cast illuminate it moves you to darkness again.

I have been to the room with the strange table, but whenever I try to look at the table, I just start getting heaps of blank lines until I do something else.
I'm stuck in the tower, because I haven't found out what happened. I WOULD resurrect mercoz and ask him, but I don't have a spell that could revive or kill someone. I have 5 beads, a bucket, the broom use for making the room and the smudged note.
Spells: Illuminate, unlock, scribe, detect magic, levitate, bremoval, enfeeble, and understand that I can reverse all those spells. I can use bremoval aswell, but I have no idea what I'm meant to do now.

That is strange. Might be a bug. I think when you leave the room it should bring you to the last room you were in. Hmmm if you saved your game in the room and then quit and restarted from there the prepackaged quest software might not save the lastroom variable and the game would not know which room to bring you back to. I shall have to not use the #lastroom# variable in the future or will put in contingencies to cope with that. sorry.

You should be able to pull the lever then you will move to next room then drop the marbles then you should be in main hall. Gravitate the chandelier. Then you should be outside near drawbridge. Levitate the drawbridge.

Comment by Tim Hamilton
06 Apr 2010
With most things you just can't use it on it's own. You usually need to use something on something.
You can usually click and drag things in inventory onto other things.
Which will act as if you typed use 'thing in inventory' on 'other thing'.
Yes you are right at the end. You cannot escape but you can help your fellow wizards.
Cast destabilize on the portal. You will need to cast enlighten first I believe.

Oh! what a shame in one of the comments you mention moving the machine for the wizard to move later and I thought it carried on! I have played three of your games and they are the best text adventures I have ever played.You manage to make them exciting and interesting. Some of the authors make the text too difficult to read and its very off putting.Just one moan the table puzzle was virtually impossible.Its also brillient that you help out because I think lots of times people get so stuck they give up Looking forward to sequels and I,ve certainly learnt how to spell Gravitate,Levitate and Chandelier!!!

The ent will get rid of the spiders if you put out the fire for him.
To do this you will need to disenchant the bucket fill it with water then enchant it and use it on the fire. Then use the orange (firebreath) potion.(i think orange is the one). breath on the web.

I think this is one of the best text adventures I have played - although I have not played one for quite some time.
I am well through the game - have 13 beads, ten spells and all potions except the rainbow potion. I am in the temple and need to know how to activate the golem to get the other beads. Can't seem to do anything to the coffin or the statue. I guess I have to BE the golem to enter the east room (golem=servant?) but can't figure out how to do that.
PLease help!

If you have put the head with the brain and 2 red marbles on the golem you should be able to speak to it. If you speak to it you can become the golem.

I only have up to the bremoval spell, 4 yellow beads, I've made an empty glass beaker, and I cannot figure out what else to do. I've been to the forest, climbed the oak tree, talked to the ent, seen the spiders, tried to get passed the boars, tried collecting water from the lake, and I'm still only wearing a robe and so I can't climb the ledge, and for the life of me I cannot figure out what I need to do to move forward. It seems as though I'm missing another spell that I cannot find the scroll for anywhere either. Help?

Oh! I just remembered if you get to the table with all the beads look up the solution earlier in the comments before you touch anything because it,s nigh on impossible and save BEFORE you enter the room .I think you need to start mixing potions it takes three machines just to make one and for some you need to mix two mixed potions {if that makes sense}

I've got all the beads except the one in the mousehole:
I have
Illuminate: Lights up the area.
Unlock: Unlocks normally locked objects.
Scribe: Writes a spell on a scroll into your spellbook.
Detect magic: Detects the presence of magic or magically imbued objects in the immediate area.
Levitate: Raises an inanimate object six feet off the ground.
Bremoval: Removes B's
Enfeeble: Significantly decreases the intelligence of the wizard.
Charm: Makes a weak minded person more aimiable.
Bind: Tightly binds something.
Enchant: Makes a normal object magical
Any hints?

To get the bead out of the mousehole you will need potions.
First use the one that shrinks you (I can't remember which color)
then talk to the mouse.
Use the speak with animals potion (pretty sure its the green one)
try and move the ball
Then talk to the mouse again and ask him to help you.
