Read the hints ONE AT A TIME, IN ORDER. QUESTION 1 - There are two methods of killing the Cyclops. - Who killed the "original" Cyclops? - Maybe this one has heard of that infamous Cyclops killer. - Ulyssies (sp?) - Alternatively the Cyclops may be hungry. - You have food. - Hot mustard seems to ring a bell in my memory. - I don't remember exact how this one ends (sorry). QUESTION 2 - Hades is a "spiritual" place, what other local is "spiritual". - There are many otherwise useless objects around the alter. - Candle light is scarry. - Read the book while holding the lit candle (very neet). QUESTION 3 - This ones realy fuzzy. I seem to remember false walls and curved halways. Be VERY careful when you map it out (you'll probably have to try a few times). - Try moving in every direction, in every room. Hope this helps, Gilles ...!alberta!myrias!ggc
