------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TROLL TM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HUMGRUFFIN, a large and amiable Troll, has accidentally stumbled into the netherworld of Narc, an eldritch land of crystal caverns populated by a race of manically malevolant Goblins. Knowing his only chance of escape is to reverse the spell that put him in such a predicament, he realises that this can be done by taking the key crystal from each chamber and placing each one in its amulet. Being a resourceful soul, he always has holes in his pockets. These are generated by the spinning Wheel of Fortune with its magnified centre section. When our hero feels too threatened by the marauding Goblins he can throw one of his holes onto the floor and escape through it to a new cave, or with a carefully timed throw into a Goblin's path he can make it disappear - for he knows only too well that being touched by a Goblin will turn him to stone. HINTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Pyramid An agile somersault from floor to ceiling and back is easy using icon] the Flip Pyramids - Humgruffin knows he'll need to search both floors and ceilings of the chambers for the key crystals.
