Desperate in Shadow Ruins

Post by gespensen »

Ok I've been stuck for 2 days trying to get the last glyph (bottom Left). I've been following the Knight Monster pictures always entering the shadow gate where the knight picture is. I always come out the same place.

Monster Knight - Go straight
Knight Monster - Turn around go through the same gate
Knight Monster - Turn around go through the same gate
Monster Knight - Go straight
Monster Knight - Go straight
Monster Knight - Go straight
Floating Island - dead end

Now I'm Stuck on these *&^% floating Islands and I mean stuck. I go around in the same 4 islands and never get off. I spend one day for 3 hours going to the same 4 islands hoping for an out.

What is the trick to getting the through the Knight Monster shadow gates to the right room?

for that, what I did is to head for the portal closest to my current bearing when teleported to a new island (i.e. I only need to turn a minimal angle to spot that portal), after a few rounds, I'll end up on the final island (the one with exit)

and by the way, for the Knight/Monster mural thingie, just head to the direction where the knights stands (some said one should go where the knights face, but actually, it's the opposite, just go to the portal that is closest to the knights, regardless of where they face) the last one should be a room with only monsters - IIRC, you should head to the portal the monsters face.

Thanks, Still stuck. I go where the Knight stands and still keep going to the same shadow Islands over and over. I think I'm in a bug.

You have to go to the Shadow Islands, and at the exit of the Islnads, you should be teleported in to the room with the rune to unlock the Rune Shadow Gate.

So far I've been on to the Shadow Islands 3 times (the look the same but they are different sets of islands), befor I'm hit with the game stopping bug when I exit the Shadow Ruin half way and couldn't get back to solve the rest of the puzzle.

Ok, Still stuck going to the same islands. I knew from preivous Islands trips it was 4-5 max gates to return. I went back on a saved game after I entered the ruins and did the first three glyphs again and sure enough I was only on the islands for less than 4 shadow gates before getting out.

I have gone now through almost 50 gates trying to get out from the Knight/monster glyph puzzle on my current game. I know I have a bug in the program. It must have happened at the begining when i entered the ruins or I did something way out of sequence.

Bumed out
