[] I have been playing Radical Castle for some time but have not been able to complete the mission, e.g. find the tools required to get the Oracle. I have visited every room that I can find and have found several monsters and found a way to kill them. I know how to get out of dungeon and also how to get out of the book (back to rabbit's hole). The only challenges that I have seen but not solved are: 1) the dragon in cellar - it always kills me 2) the devil in pentagram room - it kills me 3) I have not found how to get into hacker's room I have found the external drive and the door of the hacker's room will open but they say I am not allowed there. What is the direction to go? Should I find a way to kill the monsters or should I find a way to get into hacker's room? Where can I find things that are required to do that? I have searched every room in the castle and in the dungeon below it but have found out nothing suitable. Has anyone solved the game? -- UUCP: pta@santra.uucp (...mcvax!santra!pta) Pertti Tapola EARN,BITNET: pta@fingate.bitnet Helsinki University of Technology ARPA: pta%fingate.bitnet@wiscvm.wisc.edu Computing Centre X.400: pta@hut.fi SF-02150 ESPOO, FINLAND

Not sure you can. (2) This is the key to getting the oracle. To defeat the devil, first have a tasty carrot, then take the diamond, then use the wishbone. (3) Haven't got in their either. -- Jeff Myers: University of Wisconsin Law School AppleLink: UG0122 (Mad Mac User Group) MadMacBBS: (608) 221-8007 ARPA: myers@vms.macc.wisc.edu BitNet: MYERS at WISCMACC UUCP: ..!{harvard,ucbvax,allegra,topaz,akgua,ihnp4,seismo}!uwvax!uwmacc!myers

I got several replies and to give a small hint to those who need it (others, please close you eyes): Give the dragon some meat, it will give you good advice in return. The game can really be completed but the ending has no fanfares :-( -- UUCP: pta@santra.uucp (...mcvax!santra!pta) Pertti Tapola EARN,BITNET: pta@fingate.bitnet Helsinki University of Technology ARPA: pta%fingate.bitnet@wiscvm.wisc.edu Computing Centre X.400: pta@hut.fi SF-02150 ESPOO, FINLAND

Guess I'm a little further along. I've found the crown and the staffs,
know where the shovel is, and sometimes can even keep the skeleton in
the closet from killing me... It doesn't seem to be anything you're
carrying that scares Bambi. From the behaviour of the windows I'm
guessing that the dragon ALWAYS kills you, is otherwise not important to
the game, and is just to be stayed away from.
Other than that, I'd like some advice too...

What does this mean? I remember hearing about some cipher used on rec.humor, so I assume this is similar. Anyone want to fill me in?
