Ok, you just got Magic Carpet, you've turned it on, played it a little and
you're saying, "Gee, these are great graphics, but what the hellam I supposed
to do?" Well, without having seen the real docs or played it to the end,
here is my synopsis.
Ok, on the first level, you have maybe one spell. I can't remember,
but you do need to get the one that is right near you when the game starts.
It'll look like a red bottle. Just fly into it and you'll have the spell.
To change spells, press return. It'll show you a map and a bunch of pictures
representing the spells you have. Just click on a spell with the button you
want to assignt he spell to. If your game crashes, get the fix. Ok, now, fly
around a little looking for red dots on the map. These are more spells. At
the end of the first level you should have three spells total. Ok, now you're
saying, what next?
First, if you haven't done this, go blow something away. Anything will
do, preferably not a person and something small. (BTW, you want to use the
fireball spell for this, we'll get to the other spell first.) Now, when it dies, it'll leave behind a gold sphere. Use the #2 spell on this sphere until it turns white. This is your color and indicates that the sphere belongs to you. That spell is what you use to claim other things like buildings, tents and the bones of your foes (although why you would want the bones, I have no clue). You get magic power from stuff you claim. The game calls it mana like every
other CRPG there is. Anyway, go claim some more stuff until the second status
bar under your picture grows a bit. Now, go find some open water (land will work too, but water is better cus it allows more expansion room) and cast the castle spell at the ground. You now have a level 1 castle and a single blimp. If you have done what I said, the blimp should take off to start collecting the white spheres. When it gets full it'll return to your castle and fill it up. You can repeatedly cast the castle spell as you get more mana to increase it's mana capacity and get more balloons at level 4. When you have filled your castle to the two white dots, you have restored the world and can press space to pass the level. That's pretty much a simple intro. I'll need to play it more to find out more. Good Luck!

recharge while you are in fast mode.

enough mana for the next level of castles
Multiple Gold Spheres - I have no clue what this does different then the white spell. Tell me if you find out.
