For some it will provide the necessary ease of playing through that level.

With respect...I think it is a very good suggestion...I think I have given this level a good shot and am open to suggestions that will help me get out of the white tower with everything that I need.. Thanks Scatty Sorry R.u.s.s.

I remember... I played this game twice so far:
The first time, I took the sapphire path, but the real problem begun when I reached the swamps. I saw the first pit and fall, then I fall again till I realized it was useless. The next thing I did was to turn left, and throw a rock... and suddently I was surronded by the creatures! I killed them all till I found the shops, where it said "you killed my people"
I was like "WHAATTT?? There must be some mistake!!!".

By the second time, I had already read a walkthrough... but I hadn't understood why the emerald path was so important. Guess what? I took the sapphire path AGAIN, and then I tried to turn back to check the Emerald path.... There was none! It was gone!!... now I want to start again to feel the difference!

Anyway, a good advice.... if you just have 2 characters, save some rocks and start throwing them when an enemy appears in front of your, when you're able to attack, do so(I prefer using the keyboard) while grabbing the rocks and throwing them back to them. Its faster than you may think! Just throw them high while pressing the keyboards keys to attack!

(My posts are usually long somehow, expect that from me... but if you want the best part, read from the last parragraph to the first).

Well I got through the 3rd level of the white tower..I did it with the Vaelon cube which is a fantastic weapon and wiped out most of the ghosts I came in contact with first time..I noticed that the snake did not appear so often when I used the cube... and now I am with the old lady who will give me the crucible..just one problem.. she wants a word from the manual and even though I have a print out of one ..it doesn't seem to line up with any of the words she wants..what now?

Sorry, haven't reached that part...
As for me, I like Valkyrie(however its spelled). It throws fireballs also helps a lot to increase Kerian's Dexterty

(im in a rush, forgive my spelling mistakes)

Hey! Another Argentinian!

The cube that Sal mentions is very powerful in that tower. Between that and the emerald sword (For the King, for the land, for the mountains! :tongue , you will find the white tower lot less frustrating... I played this game twice or thrice, and all of them I found some frustrating problem that prevented me from finishing it... including corrupted savegames the third time. I decided that this game wasn't for me

I have spent hours trying to get the password..The old lady talks about the "Book of Lore" is that the manual? I got a copy (print out) of the original but still no luck.HOW DO I GET THE CRUCIBLE if I can't answer the question...

[Scatty]

Are you by chance playing the normal floppy version of Lands of Lore from the main site? You might want to download the CD version from the ISO Cellar here which shouldn't have those copy protection checks, however your savegame from the floppy version wouldn't work in the CD version so you would have to start anew.

Thanks once again Scatty... I did manage to get a list of the words from the Lands of Lore discussion group which goes back to 2005? I think. and I did get the crucible but guess what...........now I cannot open the room with the altar in order to mix the elixer etc...Your suggestion about starting again may not be too far off the mark... I am sure I had all the keys now I have a bronze type one left which does not seem to fit.
