Important: If you downloaded RPG with the intent to use it on your 83 Plus, I'm not sure the 83 Plus has enough RAM for RPG unless you wanted to completely reset the calc and try it that way (in which case I still don't know if the game would work). If it doesn't work and you'd still really like to play RPG you can download the Virtual TI by clicking here, don't worry, it's already set up for you and RPG is preinstalled in the Virtual TI.

I don't give away any of the story on this page, but you can see the Walkthrough by clicking here. If you have any questions about the game or if something isn't clear, you can ask me via the comments page.

*This is the most an enemy can possibly hit you for with no armor. To figure out the max hit with armor just do this calculation:
(1-(armor#/15))*(enemy's max hit #)
**Experience and Gold earned aren't exact figures. (Plus or minus a certain percentage)
***HP for Spider/Bee depends on your level: 1 and 2-100 HP; 3-150 HP

Game Tips and Survival Strategies

Important things to keep in mind that are crucial for beating the game:

ALWAYS write down all numbers, facts, and tasks to be done, in most cases you will only see them once!
Talk to ALL people at least once, in many cases this is required to move on in the story.
Save the game before EVERY use of the stones, you never know what enemies you will encounter afterwards.
The variables used by the game for active memory (A-Z, theta, etc...) do not matter after you save the game and end it, but the list that the game creates (named RPG) is used for saving. If you look at the values in this list they will be completely meaningless to you, DO NOT try to manipulate them, this will erase your game 99% of the time!

General game tips that will make things go a little smoother for you:

ALWAYS buy the next weapon if you can afford it before you buy anything else! A better weapon will do more than potion can and will get money quicker so you can get more potions.
I recommend buying weapons 1, 2, 4, and 5. Weapon 3 isn't completely necessary and is pretty much just a waste of precious gold.
I also recommend armor 3 and 5. 1 and 2 are available too early in the game to matter, and 3 will hold you over until 5.
NEVER run from a fight unless you need to do so to survive, you always need extra Experience.
When you fight a boss your HP is reset to full before the fight, so if you know a boss is coming soon avoid using potions unless to survive.
If you have a weapon or armor to sell when purchasing a weapon or armor it will count as money to use towards the purchase. (For example: If you have weapon 1 which sells for 150 and you're buying weapon 2 which costs 750, you would only need 600 gold and the 150 from weapon 1 will make 750 total.)
The fastest time I ever beat the game in is about 75 minutes, so if it's your first time expect to take at least two to three hours.

Important things to know about fighting:

There are two "hot keys" for fighting, just to make it quicker in tight situations: 2nd - use potion; Alpha - run;
The fight sequence is NOT turn based, the enemy will continue to attack even if you don't! The MODE button pauses during a fight.
The amount of damage you do is Strength times Attack (minus a small percentage). The max you can do (at level 20 with the best weapon) is just above 1000.
There are up to 4 different enemies you can fight at any time (unless the current enemy level is 1), the two from the current enemy level, and the two from the level below it.

Game secrets:

If somehow you get to a point where the enemies are impossible for you to beat at your player's current level, you can use the stones to access any enemy level you want:
- 1000: level 1
- 1001: level 2
- 1002: level 3
- 1003: level 4
- 1004: level 5
- 1005: level 6
- 1006: level 7
- 1007: level 8
If you desparately need to avoid a fight, pressing 2nd brings up the status screen, and doing this resets the random fight counter. So every 10 steps or so simply press 2nd and move on. I was originally going to fix this but I decided it's more useful than harmful to the game.
