- ULYSSES AND THE GOLDEN FLEECE Part One
-
- The object of this game is a simple one: You must find the golden fleece
- and bring it back to the King. Of course, along the way there will be
- various traps and hazards to avoid or overcome, and the purpose of this
- walkthru is to help you complete the game successfully.
-
- You start on a 3-way road in a Greek city. To the West is a store with a
- fence next to it. The first thing to do is "Climb Fence" and get the gold
- coin in the alley. Then climb the fence again. After this, never go
- through the alleyway again, or something valuable will be stolen from you by
- a thief. Now, go East into the forest. From there, go South, South, East,
- North, and East. At this point, you will find a chest. Don't try to open it
- yet, because you can't. Get the chest, then go South, South, West, and
- North. As you go North, you will get a message of importance. However, you
- are now at a dead end, so it is necessary for you to retrace your steps to
- get out of the forest. Go South, East, North, West, West, North, North, and
- West. You will now be back in the town where you began.
-
- Now head South and just follow the road until you come to the King's Castle.
- Go West to enter, and you will find yourself facing a guard. "Talk Guard."
- He will ask if you are Ulysses; just type "Yes." He will take you to see
- the King, who will give you some money to get started. The guard will then
- escort you back outside the castle. Go East and follow the road back to the
- town.
-
- From there, go West into the store and read the sign. Buy all items except
- the lantern (you won't need it). Leave the store by going East (if you go
- North, you will be in the alley and your chest will be stolen, and you'll
- need that later!). Go North, then West into the tavern. "Hire Sailors."
- You now have a crew to man your ship. Exit East. Get the bottle that's
- floating by the dock and remove the note you find inside. Read the note
- because the word written on it will come in handy later. Do not discard the
- bottle!
-
- Now you must deal with the guard on the dock. "Talk Guard" and tell him you
- are Ulysses. Then "Give Coin." You are bribing him so that he will give
- you a map that will help you get safely past a hurricane. Go East, and you
- will see one of the King's ships. Go North, and you will be on board. Now
- it's time to "Cast Off." Once on the ocean, you must go North, then West.
- A kindly albatross will drop a bag on the deck. Get the bag. Then, go
- East, South, and East. A condor will smack into your mast. Get the condor
- (you will need it later). Go East once more, and you will be facing a
- hurricane.
-
- Now is the time to read the map and follow the directions on it very, very,
- carefully. You will then find yourself offshore at the Island of Storms.
-
-
- ULYSSES AND THE GOLDEN FLEECE Part Two
-
- After avoiding the hurricane, you have found yourself offshore at the Island
- of Storms. "Go Island." Only Ulysses will go. The crew will remain behind
- on the ship. Now, go South and East. There is a bridle there, so "Get
- Bridle." Go East, then South. Look in the hole in the tree and get the
- sparkling dust which is inside. Now, head North, West, and North. Continue
- northward until you come to the base of a mountain. "Go Up."
-
- You will now be at the entrance to a cave. "Go Cave." Once inside the
- cave, go East, then North. You will be at a spring. Fill your bottle with
- water from the spring. Now, go South, West, and North. You will be at a
- pit in the floor. "Go Pit," then "Down Pit."
-
- From here, it's South, East, South, East, South, and East. You are now
- facing an unjumpable fjord. Here is where those leather straps come in
- handy. "Tie Straps." (To what?) "To Straps." Then, "Throw Straps" and you
- will be able to cross the fjord safely. Once you've made it over that
- hurdle, go North, East, and North. Well, hello Dragon! Give the bag of
- gems to the Dragon, who will take them and leave. Now, head North, East,
- East, and North. You will find yourself on the edge of a canyon.
-
- You thought it was hard crossing the fjord! Well, now comes the fun part.
- First, pluck that poor old condor. Then, "Make Wings." (With what?) "With
- Wax." (And what?) "And Feathers." You will now have a pair of wings, so
- "Fly."
-
- You certainly are making progress now. On this side of the canyon is a
- rock. Get the rock and the reins that are underneath the rock. Now, go
- down the hole. From there, head West, West, and South. Uh oh! There's
- Pluto, God of the Underworld! He isn't too thrilled to see you, so you had
- better "Throw Dust" to make him go away. Then, head South, East, East, and
- you come to a wall of flame (hot stuff!).
-
- It's easy to get past the fire wall, though. "Pour Wine." (Where?) "On
- Self." Now that you're dripping wet, go South through the flames. Catch
- your breath, and go East. There's a hole, so "Go Hole." Ah, fresh air
- again!
-
- You will now be back in the jungle. Head West, then South, and you're back
- at the ship. "Go Ship." It's time to move on to better things, so go North,
- West, North, North, and North. Whoops! There's King Neptune, and he doesn't
- look too friendly! Better "Pour Potion." (Where?) "In Ocean." Wasn't that
- sneaky disguising the potion as that spring water you got? Sail on North,
- East, and East.
-
- At this point, you will get a warning message about the Sirens. Ignore it!
- You must hear the Sirens' song. Go North. Now, follow these directions
- carefully: "Hold Wax;" then, "Plug Ears." When you're asked whether you
- want to plug your ears, say "No." Then, "Tie Ulysses." (To what?) "To
- Mast." (You want to tie yourself to the mast?) "Yes." In this way, you can
- hear the song of the Sirens in safety. Remember the last word of their song;
- it is very important!
-
- Now sail West, North, West, and continue North until you are offshore at the
- Colossal Island. You're getting closer to the fleece all the time, but there
- are still a few obstacles to overcome!
-
-
- ULYSSES AND THE GOLDEN FLEECE Part Three
-
- You are now offshore at the Colossal Island. "Go Island." This time your
- crew will accompany you. Head West, West, and North. There is a tree here,
- so "Look Tree" and "Read Carving." Hmmmmm, "SVENEESAS." SVENEESAS??? It's
- an anagram. You can think it over while you trudge East, East, North, East,
- and North. By now, your men are getting a little hungry, so perhaps you
- should go East, South, and East. You will be in front of a cave, so "Go
- Cave."
-
- Urk! There's a Cyclops! Well, why not try talking to him? In fact, he
- looks thirsty, so "Give Wine." When the Cyclops asks you what you'll need
- to make him some more, say "Grapes." When he leaves to get the grapes, get
- the trunk he carelessly leaves behind, and "Sharpen Trunk." Now, just do
- anything for a move or two, when old one-eye will return. Make some wine
- for him (twice is enough) to get him tipsy. Then "Use Trunk." (Where?) "In
- Eye." So much for the nasty Cyclops!
-
- Leave the cave by going South. Some sheep will be following you. "Kill
- Sheep," "Make Fire," "Cook Sheep," and "Eat Sheep." Starvation has been
- avoided, and you can continue your search. Head West, North, West, and West.
-
- Here you will find a strange sight: A man in a cage being pestered by
- Harpes. You'll have to do something about that. Say the magic word
- "Sevenseas" and "Open Cage." The grateful prisoner will give you a mallet.
- Take it from him.
-
- Now, trudge East, East, South, East, South, East, and North. Gee, those
- skeletons don't look too friendly! You had better say the word that was on
- the note in the bottle. Voila! The chest opens at last! "Look Chest."
- There is a sword in the chest, so "Get Sword," and "Use Sword." Those
- skeletons won't be bothering you now.
-
- Well, you're almost there! Go East, North, and North. You are at the base
- of a cliff. Say the last word from the Sirens' song and head North into the
- cliff. There you will find Pegasus, chained to a stake. "Use Mallet" to
- break the chain. "Put Bridle" and "Put Reins." Then you can "Ride Pegasus."
- Here is the golden fleece at last! Don't just sit there..."Get Fleece."
- Now ride Pegasus again, and you will be transported back to the King's
- Castle.
-
- Once you're at the castle, go West. No need to talk to the guard, just say
- "Yes." Then "Give Fleece," and....YOU DID IT!!! (Whew! You need a
- vacation after all this! Hmmmmm, a vacation. Where will you go? Well,
- there happens to be this little Time Machine over here....)
-
-
- ll this! Hmmmmm, a vacation. Where will you go? Well,
- there happens to be this little Time Machine
