General Adventuring Tips

These are basic adventure gaming hints that have appeared in many forms in
many different locations:

Pick up everything that's not nailed down.  Literally, if the game describes
an object, you want to pick it up, move it, open it, use other objects on it,
or otherwise figure out why it's there.

Make Maps.  Mapping out areas and writing down the objects and enemies you
find can be extremely helpful...especially if you have to backtrack!

Don't be restricted by one point of view.  While most games don't have
puzzles that have illogical solutions, you never know what might work.  You
may want to play the game with a friend to gain another person's view of the
game.
