A much better way is to give all the money and the most valuable
objects to one or a few people. Back them up a new disk. Put them on
another scenario disk. Change their names. Transfer them to the
original disk. Now you can repeat this process and create unlimited
amounts of money, armor, etc. The only thing you can't do is transfer
characters with nontransferrable items. To save time, you can keep
backing/renaming/transferring until you fill a disk with characters.

Its in the ducumentation. I seem to remember 11 or 13 is recommended.

They get you into doors on the second level that you normally can't get
through.

Levels 5-9. Then on level nine, there are two trapdoors to take you to level
10, but beware, AIR GIANTS kill with one hit.

I like using up all my healing spells remaining just before i leave the maze.
If I don't completely heal everyone, go to the in but only sleep in the
barn one night (A) . Then reenter the maze, heal some more and exit.

don't know.

The control center is on level 4, right? I haven't played this lately, but
if the control center is up and to the right, do through to the rooms with the
slamming doors and get the blue ribbon. This enables you to get onto the
elevator.
