NOTE TO GAMEFAQS VISITORS AND OTHER PEOPLE WANTING TO CONTACT ME!
Please don't bother contacting me through the "personal messaging" system
that GameFAQs has in place. I visit GameFAQs too little and I only log in
to manage my contributions. I am not an active member of the community on
the forums and such. I just play games, write FAQs about them and use this
medium to publish them, and so sending PMs to me will most likely make them
remain unread forever.
By the way if this FAQ appears on any other site using a PM system (which
can happen in accordance of the license this FAQ has) the same notice
applies.
At the bottom of this document you can find detailed info on contacting me.
Thank you!

Intro about the game and this FAQ
=============================================================================
The Legend of Kyrandia is a classic, and even after all these years, a must
have for everybody who loves adventure games.
What you have to know is that there is only one 'dead end' in the game (in
which you can no longer win) and that's when you go to the royal castle too
early, but I'll warn when you get there in the FAQ. There are lots of way
to die though, so I recommend to save often.
This game is a DOS game, it runs perfectly on DOSBOX. Mac users might be
interested in trying this game in Boxer (thank you, Al Lowe, for telling me
about that program).
The game did also run perfectly to me on ScummVM, though ScummVM can have a
little trouble with the sound drivers for ALL Westwood productions, so you
may have to tweak the configuration a little. Not really hard to do, but
when you are really unsure, then use Boxer when you are a Mac User or run
it in DOSBox.
When it comes to the game itself. You are Brandon, the grandson of Kallak.
When the evil wizard jester Malcolm breaks out of his imprisonment
petrifying everybody who once stood in his way, you are charged with the
task to defeat him. This won't be easy, as Malcolm knows you are after him
and why. His only weakness might be that he doesn't take you seriously, but
he'll sure make your job harder.
Now in order to understand this FAQ.
This game could best be divided in chapters. You won't get "chapter 1" or
so onto your screen, I just declare a new chapter when you enter a new area
of the game. When reaching chapter three you can't get out until you
completed it for most part, but you don't have to worry about dead ends
there (unless you do something really really stupid). When you enter the
final chapter you can never leave the area where you are and if you didn't
take two specific items with you, you can't win the game any more. I'll
tell you more in the section about that chapter.
When you have the original diskette version, the chapters 2 and 5 will
start with a 'doc-check' copy protection. I cannot help you on this
protection, I'm sorry. This protection was removed in the later versions
distributed on CD-ROM.
I made a link to each chapter in the index of this FAQ (in the txt version,
just use the IDX number and the browser's search function (Ctrl-F in
Windows and Linux, Apple-F on Mac) to find the section.
Each time you enter a new location I start with "-" and give the name of
the area you are in, then I'll mark with "=" each action you gotta take.
Like this.
- Hot spring
= Look at the spring
= Use your flash to get some water from the spring
= Exit East
- Old Hut
= Knock on the door
= Talk to the old man who opens the door
etc.
When I say "exit" I mean leave the location you are in, and I name the
direction you gotta go to. In case you don't know the wind directions,
let's name them once more :)
North
West East
South
Let's get this show on the road.
Walkthrough
KYR00000001
=============================================================================
Chapter 1 - Obtaining the Amulet
=============================================================================
The main object is to obtain the Amulet, which is not an inventory item,
but a special spell system. You'll find out more about it as the game
progresses.
One note, if you find jewels I didn't name in this FAQ (which can happen as
they pop up at random), just take them and collect them at one spot. You
*MAY* need them later (and even that is random, but I'll tell you more when
the time comes).
- Brandon's Home
= Take the notes on Kallak's desk
= Examine the big pot to find an apple (don't click with the apple on
yourself, ever. Brandon will eat it and the trouble is that you need
that thing later).
= Take the garnet from the desk
= Get the Saw from under the table
= Exit south (you'll have a talk with a 'spirit of the land', after he
stops, just exit south again, and this time for real)
- Outside Brandon's home
= Exit South (yes, you can)
- Below Brandon's Home

longer see him

You'll automatically scare Merith and he'll drop the marble

later.

- A Southern Cliff

silver rose
= Ok, let's cut this short, go back to the alter (you still remember the
way, I hope)
- A Forest Altar
= Offer the Silver Rose and the Amulet will appear on your screen. Right
now it's useless, but you'll discover what it does, soon enough
= Exit West
- Dark Forest
= Exit South x3
- A cavernous entrance
= Enter the cave
- A ruined bridge
= Give the saw to Herman (the man standing here)
= Exit East
- A Cavernous Entrance

- Dark Forest
= Exit South x2
- A Cavernous Entrance
= Enter the cave
- A rickety bridge
= Cross the bridge
= Exit West
If you have the first version of the game you'll get the copy protection
now, if you have a later version this will most likely be skipped.
KYR00000002
=============================================================================
Chapter 2 - Thimbermist Woods
=============================================================================
This chapter has two quests. First of all getting a quill for Darm. After
that you must get your birth stones.
When all that is done you can advance to chapter 3.
Quill
- The Timbermist Woods
= Exit West
- A strange hut
If you want you can enter the hut, where the wizard Darm will request you
to get a quill. You can skip that though as you can get on with the quest
anyway.
After you decided what to do:
= Exit south from here
- A large statue
= Exit West
- A marble altar
= Drop all jewels you have ON THE FLOOR here, you might need them here
later in the game
= Exit West
- A grove of oaks
= Pick an acorn from the trees
= Exit South
- A southern cliff
= Exit East
- Dark Forest
= Pick up the pinecone
= Exit East

order to obtain the "Heal" spell on your amulet.

= Exit West until you cannot go any further

get poisoned. Don't worry about that, just keep trying until you got a
ruby)
= Heal yourself with your amulet
= Exit South
- A grove of oaks
= Exit East
- A marble altar
Listen closely, I'll say this only once.
SAVE YOUR GAME BEFORE DOING ANYTHING AT ALL!!!!!!
= Place the Sunstone onto the plate
Now the tricky part comes.
Try all jewels you got EXCEPT THE RUBY. When it burns, reload your
savegame when it magically disapears and appears at the front of the
altar, it's correct. Two jewels must be placed this way (If all jewels
you have burn, walk around the game, and randomly jewels will appear. As
soon as you got another jewel, come back here and try it).
= And finally the ruby is the last jewel you can put onto the dish and
it'll transform into a flute
= Take the flute
= Keep going east and south until you reach a cave
- Serpent's Grotto
= Try to enter the cave and Malcolm will block your path
= Throw back the knife he throws at you (if you try to save now, Malcolm
will kill you)
= Use the flute to break the ice wall he leaves
= Enter the cave
KYR00000003
=============================================================================
Chapter 3 - Serpent's Grotto
=============================================================================
This chapter is HORRIBLE!
You need to get through this cave. Simple enough, you'd say, but all
passages are dark whenever you get in the dark monsters will eat you and
you die (so save frequently because you'll die frequently).
There are some fireberry bushes. I'll ONLY SAY IT ONCE!!! PICK UP AS MANY
BERRIES AS YOU CAN AND DROP ONE IN EVERY ROOM YOU GET PAST!
When I don't put a room name here it's just "A dark cave" or something like
that.

Inventory Items

Here's a list of the items you can get and where to get them. All items
marked as 'Jewel' can be found anywhere on the world at random and can be

only carry 10 items and you'll get MUCH more than that). I recommend you to
find a good spot somewhere to 'store' some items and to remember where you
left them.

How to contact me?
=============================================================================
If you want to contact me I recommend NOT to use my e-mail address. It's
there because GameFAQs and other FAQ sites hosting my FAQ require it, but
as with all e-mail addresses shown to the public on a website. It's
completely full of spam, and I can NEVER guarantee how long it will take to
read your mail, if I ever see it at all. I tend to change that adress on a
regular ocasion in order to bother spammers.
And thus I recommend that you go to my own website at
http://faq.tbbs.nl
and use the contact system the site has in place there. It will ALWAYS send
your mail to an active mail address.
Furthermore there are some mails that I regulary get and to which I "cba"
to respond to them. Here is what I got to say if you got to tell me this:
- Mail You know nothing of "Kyrandia"
- Reply Indeed, that's why I wrote a FAQ on it! You also got something
INTELLIGENT to say?
- Mail Fix your English!
- Reply If I spoke my own language you probably couldn't read it at all.
- Mail Not to be rude, but your list doesn't cover even half of what it
should cover
- Reply Such mails are worthless unless you give me the items I should add.
I'l even credit you for your trouble
- Mail Hadsdajdkaskldandiwjoiudaojiwoidjowaijdw!
- Reply Me not understand! I only speak English and Dutch I will accept
German, but I'll reply in English
- Mail I got the best viagra for sale
- Reply If I would actually NEED that stuff, I'd go to a pharmacy! Thank
you for your trouble.
- Mail Your boss strategy doesn't work, dick!
- Reply Then send me yours, dick!
- Mail Some bosses you brand hard are easy. Some gamer you are!
- Reply On paper one's always more careful than in reality! I always take
so-called "noobs" in mind when I write my FAQs.
- Mail You suck in levelling up!
- Reply You need to level up? Some gamer you are!There are two things I
hate. Wasting time and cheating!Constant levelling up falls in both
categories in my humble opionion
Okay that's the kind of mail I don't wish to get, and which I already
replied to by now.
I do understand that you don't agree with me on some points, or that I
forgot the cover parts.
I'm human, errors are as much my nature as they are yours.
If you find some errors, mail me in a civil way and I will update my FAQ
(when I got the time) and credit you for your trouble.
That's the way I work. No need to get offensive, is there?
