Dark Reign

Post by terkio »

I've played (and enjoyed) "Dark Reign" for the past days. Thanks to Saumun for the nice game !

I am stuck at a ornated door with ( I presume) a "topaz lock".
Actually, the graphics is a "Turquoise key hole", it shows a light blue plate with deep blue stains.
Before that, I went through a weird "infinite 6 doors room" that finally gave access to places where I found a "topaz key", but the only way to get out was to use it on a locked wooden door.
I had found a blood key, I found no use for it.

So I am stuck at a "topaz locked door", I found but lost the tppaz key, I have a useless blood key.

Some key mix up ?

Edited;
Forget it, I was guessing wrong.
I am not stuck anymore.
I found a corridor I had overlooked that goes to the next level down.
This is a level filled with rats, the "blood key" opens a first large room, then many rats and more large rooms and more "blood keys".
Spoiler
At the end of the rat level, I got the tourquoise key that opens the ornate door

Hello from the deep in the dungeon.
Beyond the ornate door at the end of level 6, it goes to level 9. There, I understood I needed ALL the "Winged keys" to enter the deeper dungeon.
I was missing Winged keys and had no idea where to look for them in the entire 8 levels I had done already.
So I restarted from the begining, keeping a close tracking about those keys.

In the deeper dungeon:
_I liked the RA level, a large and nice puzzle.
_I did the evil twister, a crooked corridor with a silent U turn to make you go back where you started, but the damn thing is more tricky.
Turning to cancel this silent U turn, is not the answer, you go back, as well.
A pretty madening puzzle.
_I passed the "don't wake me up" a speed and timing puzzle.
_Then made some progress deeper, but I am stuck at a locked ornate door and two locked porticullis. I have an Onyx key and a sapphire key: No good
The last places are pretty complex, I am confused, wandering around. May be I missed the right keys way before.

I am afraid, I must backtrack and make a lot of mapping.

Edited;
Mapping this level was the answer. No need for backtracking.
it is a very long chain of events in this level to get the required key. This is level 13 with a lot of gazers.
