Problems in the crypt

Thompson · 09-04-2001, 05:12 AM

I went back to the crypt for the second time because I had to find a necklace for the woman near the windmill. I can't find the necklace, but I think I know where it is. The only problem is a platform that i can't reach. There's a chest on the platform and it's in a room with stairs and another platform. If someone knows what I mean or remembers the situation, please help me. Thanks...

Welcome to the board, Thompson!!!

Well, if my foggy memory serves - I think the necklace is found in a treasure chest near the beginning of the crypt - believe it was a room that when I first entered I wasn't able to open the lock.

It looks rather egyptian. Hope that helps!!

Well, I had the necklace in my inventory all the time, but i'm still puzzled about the platform and the chest i can't seem to reach

A good way to reach that chest is to pile up the nearby crates and barrels using the Carry icon. Create a 2-high pile of crates (or a crate and a barrel) and a 1-high barrel next to it. Jump up each level until you land on the ledge.

I think I know where you are. You're in the sewers part of the crypt right. If I'm not mistaking about the chest you're talking about, there should be some boxes under the ledge where the chest is. Pile the boxes and use them sorta like stairs (top box half over the bottom one). Jump on the bottom box, jump on the top box. If you did this right, you now have 2 options:

1- Jump on the ledge: look up, run and jump at the same time. in the air, try to chance your direction of movement by looking forward while keeping the walking-jump (you have to practice and you might need a few tries)

2- Grab the chest and bring it down: click on your tallest character. Click the grab (little box) icon. now, click on the chest. You'll have to rotate carfully to the left or right to bring it down. If the chest is not moving, you didn't grab it.

Good luck.

BTW: there's a button somewhere in the area that will allow you to gain access to that secret passage.

I stacked some barrels and boxes (which were all hacked into bits and pieces) and got to the platform. It was quite annoying, but i guess rewarding. Got some experience of the banshees and crypt skeletons etc.
