SHADOW OF THE BEAST II: SOLUTION When you start the game, run right until you come to the man with the spear, press `A' to ask a question, type in "TEN PINTS" and press . You should now have infinite energy. When asked to whisper the password, try whispering either "SUNSTONE", "OBERON", "NECROPOLIS", or "ETERNITY". Here also is a full solution: First you should go left. Through the trees tossing their balls about at you, and across the bridge. You will now arrive at a tree stump with a guard (Don't kill him!). Here you'll need to be as fast as possible to jump up about four times and kill the oversized mosquito that is going to carry the guard away. When he's dead then stand still and listen to what the guard says. Now ask him about "traps" and he will say either "Upper" or "Lower". Now descend the stepped branches to the left and jump into the side tunnel on the left. Walk along until a cousin of the mosquito that you killed above will fly past. Turn around fast and go to the right where the mosquito is cutting through the rope. KILL him quickly or else you're stuffed. Once he's dead just stand on edge of the ledge and wait for a strong dude to push a stone towards you. When he reaches the very edge where you're standing, hit him once and he'll kick the bucket. Now go to the left and up the rise where the hovering mosquito is waiting for you to kill it. So oblige it then go back to the right where a key has fallen when you swatted the bug. Take the key the go back to the left. Drop off the edge, walk across the see-saw then jump up onto the rope that's hangin' around waiting to be climbed. Climb it and jump off onto the ledge at the top. Use that key you found open the way for you. Continue to the right until you come to a wall with two switches. Now remember what the guard told you? Was it upper or lower? Hit the switch (with your mace) that the guard told you. (ONLY that switch!) If you killed the guard by mistake, the try the upper switch. If you hit the wrong switch the ground disappears and you get you're feet wet. If you got it right then stand still and the cage above you will be lowered. Stand on it and wait. It will then rise up. Step off at the top and go the right, across the pit with the guard and the puppy dog. Continue until the end where you will find a key. Climb a chain from the ceiling to get to a high ledge where you'll find some goodies. Then return back to the pit with the guard and his pet puppy dog. Carefully climb down the chain and when you're near the bottom jump to the left otherwise you'll wake the guard which will mean restart the game. Use the key you found above and release Fido. He'll then scare the chicken soup out of the sleeping guard who then goes off to look for a better life and a large bottle of scotch. Hit the bottom lever at the right off the pit, then climb back out and return to the cage at the left and descend. Continue to the left and go back down the rope you climbed. Go to the left until you reach a wall with 3 switches. These switches operate the crane that is above you. The lower switch moves the crane up or down, the middle one moves it left or right and the upper one opens and closes the claw. Now use the crane to pick up the huge boulder where you're standing carry it across to the right hand spike and drop it. It will then break up. Be careful when using the switches or else you'll break the boulder and you're knackered. Now push the rock piece left over to the see-saw. Now climb the rope and after some practise manage to properly jump off to the other side of the see-saw where the rock is launched into the air and lands in the suspended cage. Quickly run to the left and stand on the other cage. The rock's weight will then lower it's cage thus raising your cage up to a ledge. Go to the left, chat to the dragon if you like, then whip him into a fudge brownie. Next hit the bag hanging from the branch and the original guard's brother will then drop down. Ask him about "ishran" and he will then give you a password for you to remember. Now return right, down, right, upabit, rightdownabit, right and you should be at the edge of the ledge with the rope at your right. Climb down the rope and continue to the left until you confront a big lumberjack with a skin complaint. Hit him until he falls back into the acid pool. Continue until you reach the tavern. Enter go to the left and take the bottle of booze you find. You can talk to the barman on the right but he's rather boring. Leave the tavern, go right and down the stepped branches with the leaping greenies. Go to the wall with the ghostly apparition of somebody's granny behind it. Speak the password that you were told (you did remember it, didn't you ???). Then continue on until you reach a big dude who gives you a parchment of a prehistoric playboy centrefold to help you while away the time on those cold lonely nights. Now return all the way back to where back to where you originally started. Continue to the right, through the forest full of uglies with oversized toothpicks, until you reach an area where there are jumping green booger balls. Make you're way up until you confront Simon the Snot-Nose Monster. Kill him and collect the axe that he drops. Look around and you'll find a couple of chests, one's to you're left and the other's above to the right. After you've raided the chests then go back down to the ground. Go to the rock platform that defies gravity on the left. Under it you'll find a patch of grass that looks slightly different to the rest of the ground. Jump on it a few times until it collapses. Go down the stairs and across to the left. Run to the left until you wake a guard who starts to run off. Keep running until you reach a wall with a sliding floor in front of it. Stand up against the wall and use the axe you found to kill the guard who's winding the floor in before you fall and have to restart. Once he's dead you can then kill the other guard and break through the wall using your mace. You'll find a chain so go ahead and climb it. You'll find a switch so activate it then run as fast as your little Reeboks will carry you to the left where you have to activate another switch then run back to the right before the timer runs out. If it runs out and you didn't activate the cheat then you'll be a skewered corpse. Go down until you find four cards sitting around playing poker. Kill the two on the right and collect the key. Go left until you are caught in a cage. Don't worry it's harmless. Wait for the guards to take you to a cell. Once in the cell offer the bottle of booze you got from the tavern to the guard sitting outside the cell. He'll then take it and drink himself to sleep so you are then able to bash down the door of the cell. Jump onto the chain and climb up to kill the guard on the left. Go back down and kill the sleeping guard, take the key and go back up to release the prisoner with it. Now climb up to the top of the chain where you'll kill any guard you find and take a rather large ring. Go to the right where the prisoners are waiting at a door. Open it with the other key and run along with the prisoners, who should get impaled by the Heavy Duty Deluxe Model Stainless Steel Low Calorie Toothpicks. Then return to the entrance up at the ground level. You'll need to find your way to the right where there is a bridge. If you go right from the entrance and go down the rope and into the water there will be a rope that you can climb up to get to the bridge. On the right side of the bridge you'll find a large postman with an equally large letter opener. Get him to follow you back to the bridge. To do this go up close to him then run away quickly. Once he's on the bridge he'll fall through. Go to the right and avoid the hole in the bridge. You'll find a guy who you'll give the parchment and ring to, and he'll then give you a rather useful new weapon. Go back to the bridge and fall down into the river where you'll get sucked in by the whirlpool. Make your way across and down collecting energy (wow) and the Horn. Go across until you find and angry snail sitting on the world's largest magic mushroom. Ask him about "karamoon" and he'll then offer to take you for a ride for 36 gold (which you should have collected by now if not, restart etc...) so you accept of course. He'll take you to Karamoon where you go to the right until you are at the edge of a great sea. Blow your horn and your limousine will arrive to take you to Zelek's castle where you enter and seek out Zelek to take your revenge. That's it you've now finished the game and you can live happily ever after until Shadow of the Beast III. At the start of the game, walk to the right until you reach the pigmy. Press 'A' to get into the question mode and type "TEN PINTS". This will give you infinite energy. ( GAME HINTS) Go left to where the bad guy has a guy trapped in a force field. Quickly hit him a couple of times to kill him and free the lower guy. He will then tell you the position of a switch (upper or lower) for later in the game. Now go left and down the rope to the swamp. Go left until you get to the building. Enter the building, go left and pick up the jug. Now go back to where you started the game. From here go right and through the spear throwing dudes. Go up and kill the guy who is throwing the green puddle things at you. Pick up the axe he drops. Now go left and fall from the ledge. Go right to the rock that is by itself and you can see a little grass spot on the ground. Jump on this like 4-5 times and it will fall through. Go down the steps and you are in the crystal cavern. Go left, at the bridge a guy will start running left. Chase him and he will take you to a bridge that is being mechanically shortened. Jump and shoot the dude thats cranking the bridge(3 or so shots with the axe). Now break the door at the other side of the bridge with your ball & chain. Go up the first chandelier. Go left and hit the correct switch. Now go down and kill the guards and go right. Get the key and go left, you will get caught and they throw you in jail. USE THE 'O' command and give the jug to the guard. After he passes out break down the door with ball & chain. Kill the guard. go up the rope (faster than the prisoner) and kill the guard at the upper left and then go back down the rope to get the key he dropped. Now go up the rope and go left at the first chance you get. Use 1 of the keys and free the prisoner. Go to the top of the rope and go left and get the ring. Now if you go right the prisoners get killed. Give the ring to the old man who lost it, but he still wants a parchment before he will teach you a spell. The other key is for the locked door in the first building (the inn where you got the jug).
