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.

Q : Who has the first scroll ?
A : Ask your vampire ally (at 13) about the scroll, choose the appropriate attitude until he told you to find
Dr. Byron and promise to meet you again later (this is very important !!!). Go to the park (at 30). Open the
yellow door (this is the back door to Antique Brooker at 31) and enter the shop. Use the laptop and read all
the incoming E-mail, especially the one with Dr. Byron name. He has the first scroll. Go to his house (at 38).
Q : Where Dr. Byron hides the scroll ?
A : Talk with a kind attitude (number 4) with him until he ask you to co-operate with him in finding the scrolls.
Accept his offer with a kind attitude. When he's gone, look over his desk and take the blue print and note about
the scroll. Check out his bookcase and read the green book next 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 him/her the scroll. Examine the picture
above the fireplace. Move it to reveal a safe. Unlock the safe with the key. Open the safe and voila ....
the first scroll.
Q : Where is the second scroll ?

and a bum in the alley (at 10) hold the vital information to gain it.
Q : What should I do in the Antique Brooker ?
A : Read the E-mail in the laptop about the package to Bane International. Open the drawer and take the receipt

with the name of Sebastian about the package. Enter the office. Take the letter on the desk and read it. Damn
Sebastian has been runaway with the package.

this, you'll meet your vampire ally, he'll help you on this case if you tell him that you trust him. He told
you not to believe anyone except the witch and someone who doesn't speak.
Q : Where can I find someone who doesn't speak ?
A : Remember the mime (the juggler at 26) ??!!. He's the one you need.
Q : What should I do with the juggler (at 26) ?
A : Give her a coin for her show, of course. You can get this coin by killing a robber at 39 (you'll find 2
credits and a coin from his dead body). Keep on talking to the juggler until she ask for some money. Put the
coin inside her tin cup. In return, she (ouch .. she's a vampire too !!!) will give you a parchment. Take it.

open a secret compartment. Inside this compartment, you'll find the fourth scroll.

Q : What can I do now, should I go directly to the catacomb ?

A : Talk kindly to Merlin, the witch, at the counter. Point at the 5 objects on the counter to learn about
the vampire and read the book on the counter.
Q : What should I do with the scrolls ?
A : You can do 4 things with it. You can either give it to Dr. Byron in his house (at 38), Gareth at the House

But if you bring the scrolls to the catacomb and face the ceremony. You'll be the hero of the day.

up in a real world.
