GOTHOS
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Author notes : I've written this hint by using the Question and Answer mode
because many gamers think that this mode is very flexible. It won't spoil
your game entirely. Just look at the part where you're stuck. I'm using
number in bracket to describe the place I've pointed to (look up the number
in the city map). This is not the only way to win the game. There are many
ways and orders to win the game, but this is the simple one. The story is
about the disappearence of The Scroll. This scroll is divided into 4
pieces. You must find these scroll pieces to solve the mystery of the
vampire activities in Gothos. Your conversation depends on your attitude of
speaking. I describe the attitude from left to right with these numbers : 1
- Angry, 2 - Apathy, 3 - Normal, 4 - Kind, 5 - Friendly.

to the yellow one : 'The Key to Greater Knowledge'. At the end of the
pages, you'll see a gold key. Take it. Enter his living room. Examine the
fireplace. Retrieve the note from someone who threaten Dr. Bryon to give

you bring the scrolls to the catacomb and face the ceremony. You'll be the

in a real world.
