A friend of mine asks the following: does anyone know how to get past the pendulum in Barbarians? I've tried running, jumping, etc. in every conceivable combination. What gives? Since I don't play Barbarians, I couldn't help this lost soul. Any ideas? -- Chris Long Mathematics Department Rutgers University New Brunswick, NJ 08903

In order to get past the swinging pendulum in Barbarian, you must duck, just as the rock is about to come 'round and bash your skull. You do this by using the 'pick up' function on the second screen of icons. Try that. Sean Parham ACM at University of Illinois

If this is the rotating "pendulum" after about 40% of the game, all it takes is ducking using G for Get and the right timing (duck then walk, duck and walk, etc.). I hope this helps. Mike Stepniczka mts10271@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu n
