Atari CX-2600 manual Good Or Bad Magic, Level

Page 26

In all games, Yorgle, the Yellow Dragon, is afraid of the gold key and will run from it. He will also stay away from whatever room or area of the Kingdom it is in.

To remove objects that are stuck in a wall and out of reach, there is a magnet that affects all objects, including the bridge. You can also use the magnet to move objects to an adjacent part of the kingdom by putting the magnet in front of you before entering that part of the Kingdom.

Bad Magic

The Evil Magician has cast a spell to make it difficult for you to succeed in rescuing the Enchanted Chalice. Not only do the dragons rally around and try to stop you from getting the Enchanted Chalice, they guard other objects in the Kingdom:

Grundle, the Green Dragon, guards the magnet, the bridge and the black key.

Rhindle, the Red Dragon, guards the white key.

When not guarding the Enchanted Chalice, Yorgle, the Yellow Dragon, roams freely about the Kingdom. Sometimes he will assist Grundle or Rhindle in guarding whatever it may be that they are guarding. There is other Bad Magic that you must overcome in order to rescue the Enchanted Chalice:

You cannot pick up and carry a slain dragon.

In Skill Levels 2 and 3, besides the dragons, the Evil Magician has created a black bat that flies around and carries objects around throughout the Kingdom, often switching them with objects that you may be carrying. The black bat may trade a live dragon for the sword and leave you defenseless, or it may trade you something for the Enchanted Chalice just as you are ready to put it into the Golden Castle.

Good Or Bad Magic

Some Magic can be good or bad, depending on the situation:

You can catch the Black Bat and carry it and whatever the Black Bat may be carrying. However, sometimes the Black Bat will escape(usually at the most inopportune times).

If there are four or more objects(including the Castle Gates) in your area of the Kingdom, your magic may or may not work. Sometimes you can slay a Dragon, sometimes you can't. However, it is easier to avoid being swallowed by a Dragon.

If you have slain a Dragon, and he is blocking your path, so you cannot get through, you can use this to your advantage by placing one or two objects in the same area and then move through the slain Dragon.

Sometimes the Black Bat can be used to your advantage by getting it to swap for an object you need that may be stuck in a wall.

SKILL LEVELS

Level 1

This is the simplest Skill Level. When you depress the game reset switch to begin play, you will see the Key to the Golden Castle. Unlock the Castle and enter. You will find the Sword inside the Golden Castle. The Key to the Black Castle is being guarded by Grundle, the Green Dragon. Yorgle, the Yellow Dragon is roaming free and may or may not be found guarding the Enchanted Chalice, which is hidden with the Magnet inside the Black Castle.
