If so how are do you find it out? I've tried 'asking' the first stranger who you save when you travel west and the hotel owner none of them know what i'm talking about. the only meaningful thing i've been able to find out, is if you ask the guy you rescue about traps, he tells you whether you have to switch the 'upper' or 'lower' switch to make the cage drop which takes you up into a room. I have found nothing to do here, except fall down a chain and wake up a guard who unleashes a beast who kills you. Is it possible to beat this ? I also found a crane which I could move left and right, up and down, and make open and close, by hitting switches, but i could not do anything constructive with it, any ideas??? When travelling east, (supposedly where ishran the evil dragon is located) i found an old man talking about his lost ring which made him powerless are you supposed to ask or offer him anything ???? Any help with these questions or any other tips on palying this game will be very greatly appreciated. Thanks in Advance Ian.

Hello, I am also having trouble with BEAST II. One...I have never even seen a hotel or a hotel owner, I suppose that is somewhere you can't expect to reach without cheat mode on. BTW, there is one problem with the cheat mode I have discovered, some times the solution to killing a monster does not lie in violence, some times there is a trick involved, and if you just hack the creature up, you may not gain access to the thing he was supposed to *open* up for you. I also do not know the cheat mode command, but I remember seeing a guy at the store type something to the first pygmie. If anyone knows how to get out of the goblin prison without the cheat mode, of course, please let me know. Just out of curiosity, is there anyone who does not use the cheat mode. I bet that noone who uses the cheat mode has found the whirlpool... (very easy to find) Jason Wilson.
