Map locations.
Many of  the hints for this  game contain references to  specific
locations. To understand these references, the maps are laid out
according to a 16 by 16 tile grid. To construct your own level maps,
draw a 16 by 16 tile grid on a piece of paper. Write  the numbers 1
through 16 along  the bottom squares  from left to right. Starting  at
the bottom  and moving  up  the tiles, write  the letters A through P.
You  should have a map similar  to the one found on  page 66 of your
game manual.  Each level map doesn´t  necessarily make full use  of
every tile, but the  furthest Southwest corner  of each map  will
always be  at A,1. As  an example of  locating your place  on a level
map, let´s suppose  a hint reveals that you should find your way to
location F,5.. F,5 would be 5 tiles to the East of the Southwest corner
(A,1) and 6 tiles to the North.

Getting started
After  creating your  character, enter  the Volcano.  Equip your
character with weapons and  armor. To outfit your  character, click on
the  Chest in the lower middle of your  screen. This opens the Item
Menu. Drag a weapon from  the Item Menu to the  circle next to your
character´s  right hand. Drag a shield  to the circle next  to your
left hand.  Drag a helmet to  the circle above and  to the right of
your character´s head. Drag your  armor to the circle above and to the
left of your character´s  head.. Click on the icon that looks  like a
map in the lower right hand  corner of your screen. This  will show you
a map  of the main dungeon entrance as  far as you have explored  it.
As you move about,  you will notice that the  map clears, uncovering
the tiles you  have explored. There are no monsters in the entrance
level, so feel free to experiment by moving around. There are 4 doors
from the entrance that lead further into  the volcano. Go to the door
at I,5 and explore !
  the mines. You will  encounter ba
nds of wandering monsters and even a few friends who  may give you some
clues about the Volcano. You may find it helpful to take notes.

Building experience points and stats
Pay close attention to your experience points.  Stop by the Guild every
now and  then to see if  you have gained enough points to reach  a new
experience level. Try  out any  items you  find and  see if  they help
you. You  can do  this by clicking on  your character, then  clicking
on "Stats".  Make a mental  note of your current  stats. Equip your
character with a  new item. Look  at the stats again.  Did the  stats
increase?  If they   did, then  it is  probably wise  to continue using
that  item. The 2 circles next to  your character´s legs are for
"Insignias" or  "Rings". Rings or  Insignias can increase  your stats.
You  may find rings and insignias while exploring or you may win them
in combat.
