--WALKTHROUGH (Click here to view the RTF)--

I designed the walkthrough. To the best of my knowledge it simplifies the entire journey. There might be other things in the game unfound, if so please write to me as always spidercider@hotmail.com . I searched through other sites and walkthroughs and it seems that nothing i have written is missising anything.

--EPOR: The useless spell--

In a room (the one just up from the wraith room) you will see a sign that reads "EPOR" simply LOOK at it twice and you get the spell "EPOR". USE EPOR in that very room to make the rope rise. If you go up you will be in the mirror room. EPOR is ROPE backwards!

--Sphinx's riddles i was too lazy to mention in the good old walkthrough--

"First burnt and beaten, drowned and pierced with nails, then stepped on by long-faced animals"=Horseshoe

--Lever Secret (How did I know?)--

I like most other people would have just fooled with the levers until I came up with something. I eventually got it. At first I played around, using numbers for each lever (1=left, 2=middle, 3=right). So, 321, 312, 231, 213, 123, 132. Then that didn't work. I then realised that you could re-raise the levers. So, 323...was finally the right equation. But, I kicked myself later for realising that the sphinx room held the secret i was looking for. Look at the stairs...you think it's just brick outlines and then look a little closer and see the shape of the levers...hahaha! If only I had known.
