- I think Ultima UW is a wonderful game. I have enjoyed it more than
- any other computer game, and I encourage others looking for a game to
- try it. For those that haven't finished the game, stop reading here.

- I've killed everything that swims, crawls, or flies (unless it's
- described as a mellow creature), got more rings than I know what to do
- with, and carry only enchanted weapons of "unsurpassed" damage, etc.
- I think that I've explored every square inch of all the levels,
- although I haven't been able to open the blocked stairwells and I've
- only gotten a peek at the central well by doing "roving eye" passes
- over it. But now I'm stuck.
-
- What do I do next? I've gotten into the room requiring the special
- multipart key that holds the one hostile creature that's left.
- However, it seems invincible to my combination magic & weapon attacks
- that can easily kill anything else like the metal golums (except for
- those floating light balls -- what are they called -- and I haven't
- tried the ending the world spell!)
-
- I've collected the magic items, but they are stashed in some of the various
- caches that I have scattered on the different levels. Should I be
- doing something with them? I've certainly spent enough time searching
- for them.
-
- Since I've gotten to this point without any "hints", I'm hesitant to
- ask for help for fear that I'll get much more than I want. So perhaps
- I need just a little hint as to the direction I should take.
-
- Thanks
