and right.  Now you will fight the Shape Lifters.

        Objective #14: Defeat the Shape Lifters.
    Defeat these three twins of you by hitting them with powerful attacks and
healing after being hit by their alchemy spells.

        Objective #15: Continue through the forest.
    Now go right across the bridge.  On the next screen to the right you will
continue through the forest.  Go right, up, right, up, right, right, down, down,
down, right, right, up, right, up, left, up, up.  Now you will fight the
Timberdrake.

        Objective #16: Defeat the Timberdrake.
    Defeat this beast by attacking it when it lands.  After a short time, it
will die and give you the Lance.

        Objective #17: Get through the dried sewers.
    Now go right.  Go down and to the right and up the stairs.  Go into the
dried out sewers.  In the sewers, go down and to the right then down.  In the
next pipe, go left, then down, then right all the way to the wall, then down,
left, down, right, down, left.  Follow the pipe until you come to a four way
fork.  Go up, then right at the next fork.  Get off at the platform and go
through the door.

        Objective #18: Get to Ebon Keep.
    Now open all the cells in the dungeon and defeat the monsters.  In the last
one will be a path leading out into Ebon Keep.

        Objective #19: Get to the Verminator.
    Now go upwards through Ebon Keep to the castle.  On the way you'll find but
a few buildings that you can enter.  When you get up to the keep, the door opens
for you.  Go into the keep and go forward to fight the Verminator.

        Objective #20: Defeat the Verminator.
    This is probably the hardest battle in the game only because you must fight
the battle with spells alone.  Cast your strongest alchemy spells at this
oversize rat to kill it.
    On the other hand, if you don't want to fight the Verminator, you can turn
aroound and go back to the chesboard.  Go into Ebon Keep from the drawbrdge that
is now lowered and you won't have to fight the Verminator.

        Objective #21: Meet the real Queen Bluegarden.
    Go forward from where the Verminator was and a person will come get you and
ask you to follow him.  Follow the person and he will lead you to the real Queen
Bluegarden.  You'll find out that it is her evil twin living in Ivor Tower.  She
will tell you to meet Tinker.

        Objective #22: Talk to Tinker.
    Go through the right door and through the room with the enemies.  In the
next room, you will meet Tinker.  Tinker will show you his telescope.  Through
it you will see Camelia's (Queen Bluegarden's) evil twin.  Tinker tells you that
you should go back to Ivor Keep by visiting his brother, Gomi.  Before you leave
the tower, pick up the Knight Basher in the chest in the room.

        Objective #23: Get to the base of Gomi's Tower.
    Now go to the main room of the castle and through the door on the left wall
into the dungeon.  Go through the cell on the right into the sewers.  Make your
way back to the beginning by bashing piles of rocks with your new axe.  In the
field you are in, bash the piles of rocks and go up towards Gomi's Tower.  From
the screen you are on now, go up onto the next screen.  You are now at the base
of Gomi's Tower.

        Objective #24: Climb Gomi's Tower.
    Now climb up the tower until the floor below you gives away.  Climb down the
tower then go to the right and climb up that stairway.  Go through the door you
come to.  In the area you arrive in, go on and climb up the rest of the tower.
At the top, you will fight the Sterling.

        Objective #25: Defeat Sterling.
    Attack this monster when it lands, just as you did with the previous dragon
you fought.  When Sterling picks you up he will toss you down the tower a bit,
so you'll have to climb back up to whack it.

        Objective #26: Get to Ivor Tower's theater.
    Once Sterling is defeated, Gomi comes and talks to you.  Gomi will give you
the Lightning Storm formula as well as heal you up.  Sterling will give you a
ride over to Ivor Tower.  It will drop you off near the sewers.  Go through the
sewers into the main castle.  Go to the Queen's room and off a door to the left
into the theater.  There you will fight some puppets and Mungola.

        Objective #27: Defeat the puppets and Mungola.
    Defeat the first two sets of puppets with physical attacks and Mungola will
appear.  Attack Mungola with charges up attacks.  The puppets will heal Mungola
eventually.  Keep whacking the puppets and Mungola until Mungola dies.

        Objective #28: Talk to Tinker.
    After the battle, Camelia's evil twin will jump from her balcony.  She will
explode and cause part of the castle to collapse.  Now everybody has returned to
Ebon Keep, so go cross the checkerboard and take the drawbridge into Ebon Keep.
Go talk to Tinker.  He has invented a machine that will let you fly around
Evermore back to the pirate lands or prehistoric world.  He also has an idea on
how to get you home, but he'll need your help on that.

you fought Thraxx (see section B).  There, you will fight Coleoptera.

        Objective #2: Defeat Coleoptera.
    Defeat this boss the same way you killed Thraxx, the first bug.  Slash open
the sack that remains when you defeat the beast to get the Wheel.

        Objective #3: Get the Gauge.
    Now its time to get the next part Tinker needs.  Go to the volcano and, as
described in section B, go to where you got the Levitate formula.  You will fly
right over where you got the formula and land by a box containing the Gauge.

        Objective #4: Talk to Horace.
    Now go talk to Horace in the Nobilia palace.  He will tell you some
information about where you might find the Diamond Eyes and he will give you a
new alchemy formula.

        Objective #5: Get the Diamond Eyes.
    Now go to Horace's camp.  Go into the dried riverbed and go south.  Go to
the left and follow the dried river to a cave.  Go in the cave and go through
the teleporter.  Levitate the rock.  Hold down one switch with your dog, another
with the rock, and the last with the boy.  Go forward through the middle gate.
Go through the first teleporter.  Keep going backwards through the same
teleporter you came out of to reach Tiny, who gives you the Diamond Eyes.

        Objective #6: Talk to Tinker.
    Now go back to Ebon Keep and talk with Tinker.  You'll give Tinker the items
he needs.  Tinker's rocket is now done, and he will launch you to the space
station.

    2. Talk to Professor Ruffleberg.
    3. Retrieve the energy core.
    4. Go through the junkyard's teleporter.
    5. Fight the final battle.

        Objective #1: Find Professor Ruffleberg's lab.
    Now go around the area to the beam of light.  It will take you up into
another room.  Go to the right to the next beam of light.  Now in the area you
are in, switch to the dog and go through the door in the upper right part of
whatever it is that you're in.  Shoot the enemy to the right then switch to the
boy and kill the monster that is now roaming through the halls.  Have the dog
come back down and then go right into the next chamber.  Go down the hatch here
for some stores.  Now go down to the next chamber.  Go down the hatch here for
an inn.  Go down to the next chamber and go down the hatch.  Hit the switch then
head back up.  Go left and go down the hatch.  Go through the turned off heaters
and up the next beam.  Go right two chambers.  Go down the hatch and turn the
greenhouse lights off.  Go right one chamber and up one.  Drop down the hatch
and defeat all the monsters.  Go up the beam and then go left one chamber.  Go
through the greenhouse (the lights MUST be off).  Go up the next beam and go
right one chamber then down the hatch.  You are now in Professor Ruffleberg's
lab.

        Objective #2: Talk to Professor Ruffleberg.
    You'll talk to Professor Ruffleberg.  He will tell you about Carltron, who
caused all the trouble in Evermore.  He will tell that you need to get an energy
core below the chessboard.

        Objective #3: Retrieve the energy core.
    Go through the door in this room and go down the hatch to get a ship that
will take you down to Evermore.  Go land at Ebon Keep.  Go to the chessboard and
head beneath it to pick up the energy core.

        Objective #4: Go through the junkyard's teleporter.
    Take the ship back up to Ruffleberg's lab.  Talk to Ruffleberg for the
Energize formula.  Now go up the beam and go left three chambers.  Go down to
the basement of the space station.  Use the machine to save, then go through the
teleporter.

        Objective #5: Fight the final battle.
    Go down the hatch from where you are at to fight the final battle.
    In the first part of the battle, there are fans and speakers on the wall.
Switch to the dog and charge up his attack and shoot all the speakers and fans
while dodging the bombs.  Once all speakers and fans are gone, hit the switches
to begin the second battle phase.
    In the next phase, you'll fight several monsters.  Here's where you'll want
to start using Energize.  Beat up the raptors.  Do not kill the cleaning bots.
If you kill them, spiders that deal tons of damage will start attacking.  Later
Rimsalas will start attacking.  Clones of you will also attack you.  After time,
the television monitors explode and Magmar attacks you.  Keep yourself well
healed in case Magmar uses an alchemy formula on you.
    Now its time for Carltron's Robot.  Now it's time for you to relax.  Let
your dog do the dirt work.  Run to the upper right corner.  You'll be safe
there.
Cast Energize, Super Heal, Heal, Force Field, Defend, etc. on your dog to let
him have the fun of smashing the robot.
    After Carltron's Robot dies, Professor Ruffleberg will switch off Carltron.
Now you'll see the end to the game.  Congradulations, you have beat Secret of
Evermore!

-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~-_-~

you can search for great bargains, good armor, and even rare items.  This
section helps you navigate the Nobilia Market and find the best items or
whatever you are looking for.

        Upper screen of market:
    On the upper screen, cast Levitate on the rock and Tiny will come by.  Give
him a tapestry and he will throw the rock to outside Blimp's cave on the other
side of the desert.  There it opens up a passage to get some items.
