Cadaver

Cadaver

WalkThrough
===========
Cadaver is a puzzle solving Adventure/RPG game by the 
Bitmap Brothers. Gameplay takes place in a orthogonal 
view, with the player guiding the dwarf Caradoc up 
through five treachorous levels of the castle.

I was actually surpised that no walkthrough seemed to 
exist for Cadaver, since its pretty alright game, so I 
decided to endevour to make one myself. Currently only 
the complete solutions to levels 1, 2, and 4 are provided, 
with partial solutions to 3 and 5 (as far as I've got). 
If anyone can add details, PLEASE, PLEASE, email at:
s9406702@yallara.cs.rmit.edu.au

Starting at different levels
=====================
Cadaver uses a special data system for defining each level. 
Thus, you can start play on a different level simply by 
copying the files in the data subdirectory of the level you 
wish to level 1. The batch file below should be typed in and 
saved in the directory Cadaver is located in under the name 

LEVEL.BAT:

@ECHO OFF
IF EXIST DATAROUTINE1.TAD GOTO NOCOPY
REM NO BACKUP OF 1ST LEVEL EXISTS, SO MAKE COPY
MD DATA
COPY DATA1*.* DATA > NUL
:NOCOPY
IF NOT "%1" == "1" GOTO NOTONE
COPY DATA*.* 1 > NUL
GOTO END
:NOTONE
COPY DATA%1???%1.* DATA1???1.* > NUL
COPY DATA%1ROUTINE%1.TAD DATA1ROUTINE1.TAD > NUL
:END


LEVEL should be invoked with a number from 1 to 5, which indicates 
the level you wish to start at. Note that you should be carefull with 
saved games saved across different levels started in this manner; 
loading a saved game for a different level which was started at 
will crash the program.

of two methods [i. I haven't worked out the proper way; may have

jump onto the plaform and get the key, Flip the switch and get out

next platform (when none are moving). Arrange them so the lowest is at 
the far right, each higher platform being successively one position to 
the left. Climb staircase.

handle and put the triangle on the impression, then get unlock door wand.

it, E.

Here in the Eastmarch hall you need to first throw the switch [closes 
a pit up the stairs] and offer the ramskull, the wine, the black book, 
jeweled casket. I don't know how to do it. They must disappear; I've 
had some luck by throwing one at a time at the spikes. You'll need to 
experiment to find it. I can't remember how it did it when I originally 
found the solution.

jump and super-fast potion. You can drop them now. Pick up ball, 
S, drop a candle quickly on the northern half of the passage to 
block the demon's bolts, and push it close to the circle. When 
the demon pauses, push it onto the circle to weakon him, and drop 
another one to block his bolts. Then push it close to him and cast 
some magic missiles to destroy him. Get key, S, cast dispel trap on 
chest, open it, cast dispel trap on chest, then unlock chest on it. 
Cast dispel trap on chest, open it, get it and orange key, flip 
switch.

N, E, unlock lock, S, flip switch, E. You'll find that some of 
the blocks are draggable. You'll go on the open side and drag the 
block half-way, then jump out and fall into the new gap and push 
the block the rest of the way. Moving a few of the blocks will clear 
the door area. You'll have to hurry on the last one, since it will 
soon move back. [It'll disappear when you've gone through the N 
door once]. N, climb steps, drink giant jump and jump onto platform. 
Get immortal potion and tokens, throw switch, S, W, throw switch, E, 
N, throw switch, E.

Drop candle near southern spikes, jump onto it, and over spikes. 
Throw switch. get the candle, and put it near the northern spikes. 
Jump over, and throw switch. S. Open chest, get book and key. You 
then need to move the tiles to spell 'Dianos' from left to right. 
Do this by first pushing titles down, and moving 'I A N' to the 
left, while finally moving
'O S' to the right, and returning D to the top position to form:
		D
		
	I A N	    O S

then push the D to the bottem, and slide the N, then A, then I into 
the northern three positions, then push D up to the center tile, as in:
		N
		A
		I
		D O S

Push the 'D O S' titles to the far left, then drag the S, then the 
O titles back to the right. Push the northern stack down by one, and 
repeat the procedure for I, then A, then finally push the 'N O S' to 
the left to spell 'D I A N O S'. The eastern door will unlock.

E, get the bottles, W, N, give the alkaline restorer bottle to the 
thief, who'll give you some info. S, E, throw switch, N. Here there 
is a gambling machines you can use your tokens on, by dropping them 
on the holes. The southern one can give you gold, stamina potions, 
and also a key. [it will break after it gives you the key; it unlocks 
the door in the S, W, NW room which leads back into the room which had 
four demons in it], the northern one can give you multiple tokens, and 
the middle one can give you lots of tokens, but the chance is smaller.

E, into the room with four pits. Fall down the western pit. 
You'll need to throw the switch reasonably quickly. Do this 
by stacking two bottles on the southern end of the chest 
[without moving it], and making a diagonal jump from one corner 
of the chest onto it [diagonal so the wall stops you from jumping 
right over it]. Throw the switch and get back the bottles and the 
key. Open chest and get the stuff. When the clock has completed 
three circuits, a lock should appear on the northern wall. Quickly 
unlock it with the key to raise the bars. N, get unknown [stamina] 
potion. E, N. In this flame room wait around a bit [you wont get 
hit by the fire bolts as long as you don't move into them; they won't 
appear on a position if you stay still]. S, pick up the Unlock door 
wand, Bless potion, and Mind Blast. S, S, S [teleport].

E, S, N, give the potion which aids eternal rest to the thief. 
He'll tell you about needing four gold keys in the main room. As 
you recall you had one which you unlocked lock 1 with, and you 
should currently have another gold key which you got from the room 
to the south. Once the other two gold keys are found, the locks 
should be unlocked in the order 1, 4, 3, 2 [you've done 1 already].

Anyway, look at the thief to get a mind blast spell, S, E, N, E. 
Fall in the northern pit and collect all the gold, and then follow 
the route back to the four pit room again. Then fall down the southern 
pit. Put some objects in front of the door to prevent roots growing 
and blocking your escape, and then pick up the sacks as they appear. 
Once finished, follow the root [heh heh] back to the four pit room again.

E, E, run to the eastern side of the room [where the demons wont hit 
you]. Cast dispel evil, and then hit the left one with a diagonally 
thrown shirikan, and then the right one when it pauses between shots. 
Cast unlock door on door, N, E. The symbols on the posts must match 
the ones in the room two screens to the west. Do this by pressing the 
levers in the order left, right, right, left. Press button, E. Read 
the books to get info. W, W, W, press button, W, open chest, get planet. 
E, E, N, E, drag chest to the fourth column of squares on the wall from 
the left. Stand on chest and jump to open hidden panel. Get the small 
moon. W, N, E, read books: one of them (a book on marriages) has an 
unknown [unlock chest] spell, examine tapestry and get key.

W, W, place candles in the center of the tiles which touch the eastern 
door [this will block missiles which start]. Fall into section get 
chest, and when bars rise, throw the switch, and drop an object on 
tile which has changed to depress the switch [dont know what it does]. 
Get the candles, and go E. Open chest and take the two gold coins 
[DONT TAKE THE BRONZE COIN!]. Now would be a time to drop a whole 
bunch of stuff you've been lugging around that you don't need in one 
of the rooms, like spare Shirikans, Mind blast spells, [you wont be 
needing weaponary again in this level], stamina potions, etc. You can 
always come back for them.

W, W, open chest, and get the spells. Cast read magic on the 
unknown scroll. Go back to the Adding machine room. One of the 
books in the library told you four numbers: 29, 32, 16, 7. You've 
got to form those totals using the four levels (where up is add, 
down is subtract, and middle is nothing). Set the levels in each 
of the four patterns to give the correct totals (U=up, D=down, N=neither):
29:	D U N U		32:	D D U U
16:	U D D U		 7:	U D U N

W, cast unlock on chest, get planet, W, get planet, E, N. You should 
have four planets by now, which must be placed on the correct poles 
according the books on the planets scattered around. To do this, go 
S, E, N, W, W, S to the upper room and drop the planets into the 
following order:
fiery-planet	NW hole		little moon		E hole
2-moon planet	SW hole		earth-like planet	SE hole

Return to the Planetorium, and the four planets should be atop 
the spikes, and the globe stopped spinning. Push the button in 
the globe, and two hidden panels will reval the final two gold 
keys.

Return to Central Hall, either by the southern route or via the 
northern door in the passage [make sure all the lone switches in 
that area of the castle are down, and fiddle with the switch by 
the door to open it]. Unlock the three locks in the order lock 4, 
lock 3, lock 2 to complete the level and be transported to the 
fifth, and final level.

A few points unsolved sofar: the use (if any) of those four quartz 
rocks I found earlier, getting into the room to the east of where 
you entered the level, and the final cryptic message in a book: in 
the North East tower the lever brings great rewards (might be the 
room to the east of where you started which I haven't got into yet). 

Level 5
======
Pick up the marble, E, pick up the marble, step on oe of the small 
tiles to make a skull appear, put marbles in skull, E, get two 
potions on pedestals, E, flick first switch, second switch, stand 
in very northern end of eastern end of passage to avoid getting hit 
by the twirlys, then when they're moving to the left open the secret 
panel behind the second block and get the potion. Keep trying E until 
you get through.

Pick up emerald, E
