-=Walkthrough=-
Arcs
You start out in an inn. You should save and then go to a big house in
the north east side of town. By the stairs a woman will ask you to
clean her attic to get rid of the mice. Say yes and then go upstairs
and clean all the mice. Once you have cleaned out all the mice open
the two treasure chests to get the buckler and the scrap of paper. The
buckler is a shield and should be equipped. The scrap of paper gives
information on the tower of light.
Next go to Marlon the black smith's house and talk to him. He will say
to bring back dragon scales from the tower of light. Next go to the
gate that leads to the tower of light. Talk to the guard and he will
now let you in.
Once outside town walk north until you come to a ledge. Jump up and
walk into the cabin. In the cabin go downstairs and defeat all the red
demons. Then open up the treasure chests to get money and the crimson
jade. Equip the crimson jade and he will attack enemies with fireballs.
Keep going until you reach the tower of light.
-The little blue things that come from enemies are expierience that
only Jade can collect.
-You can only have two jade out at a time.

times, left 11 times then finally up twice onto the switch to open the

gate but watch out for the spikes! The 2nd door has a hallway with the
orange balls. Dodge these to get "The Key to the Seal". The balls
move faster than you so you might want to get far away before trying to
pass by them. The 3rd door contains sort of a spiral shaped hallway

-=Boss Strategies=-
The Big Bug- This guy is found in the tower of light. Stay in the
middle of the room and attack him with your sword. Do not leave the rug
or he will get in your way. He will also send out little bugs. Take
some time to kill those too. He will turn red when he is close to being
beaten.
Gravity Machine- This guy is found in the ancient ruins. You should
use a long ranged weapon on him. You can only hit him when his eye
opens. He has one attack. This is to try to suck you up. You have to
be far away from him all the time so that you won't get sucked up.
Then keep jumping back and dodge the metal balls. Take time after he
tries sucking you up to hit him.
Ramus- These guys are green and blue ghosts. Use the stop spell.
They will then turn brown allowing you to hit them. Dodge them by
only getting behind and attacking one of them. Walk carefully
because you are on ice and there are holes.
Demon King- First off use your morning star to attack from far away
at his tail. But watch out his tail will try to hit you. Now when
his face breaks off attack that and watch out he gets faster. Next
attack his body with your most powerful weapon. Watch out though.

Weapons
-------
-This table contains all of the weapons used in Brainlord. Weapon name
is easy enough. Attack power is how much damage that weapon inflicts
on your foe. The weapon type consists of Sword, Axe, Boomerang, Flail,
and bow. A sword whips out quickly in front of you and keeps a good
distance between you and your enemy. The axe is the same but with a
much lower rang. A boomerang can be thrown and can hit an enemy twice
and then come back to you. Only one boomerang can be out at a time.
The flail is a ball and chain that swings in front of you with a
larger range than than the sword. If you tap over when the flail is
all the way out then it will spin around for a double attack. The bow
shoots out and has a range that reaches until the end of your vision.
Again, only one arrow can be shot at a time from the bow. The special
functions is anything that the weapon can do besides attack. (ex: the
Rock Breaker can break rocks blocking your way.)
