alright it seems a lot of people are having trouble with the other heroes, i doubt anyone will read this but ill write this anyway because i'm bored.
1. I suggest using zach for this because hes stronger but its doable with vern. Use mardek to heal
2. kill the white mage really quickly.
3. kill the black mage
4. Kill the theif
5. Own the warrior
6. If u cant do this then i suggest training or getting better equipment
7. BTW make sure u get the trilobite key in the tainted grotto its hidden in one of the skeletal remains look at the map its indicated by a chest icon

Random bug if it's not been discovered/discussed yet. I opened the key items tab under inventory and clicked the trilobite key from the bandit I didn't kill earlier in the game and after a battle I find that all of the items in Mardek's Inventory are gone and the Trilobite key is there. Is it a bug or did I do something wrong?

Also, is there a way to get to the temple in Lake Qur and if yes, then is there any reason to go there (I've filled out everything in my encyclopedia; the only things I'm missing 11 treasure chests and I've completely cleared all of the maps). Anyone been able to score all 130?

I played this game before on Newgrounds and beat it. Loved it then, and I still love. Especially the dialog between the Governance de Magi members (the Air-aligned person just cracks me up for some reason). Only thing I didn't like was needing to switch between the mouse and keyboard for inventory management, but then again I almost never used items during battle in the first place so what difference does it make? And for anyone having trouble finding the keys; Tainted Grotto (invisible chest), random Canoia zombie(just keep fighting), Social Fox's tomb, and the Goznor Inn.

Bah, bug happened again, and I've discovered its exact manifestation. It seems at some point (either time based or dependent on doing something like fighting, opening a chest, discovering an area) all save files become corrupt. Those corrupt save files don't display in the load or save screens, and they cause everything (up to five files) on that *screen* to become invisible. I created 10 save files at the beginning, went through all the chapter 1 areas and did the first boss fight, then saved, and found that the 0-4 screen (with the autosave) was blank and screen 10-14 (with the new save) wasn't accessible. screen 5-9 was fine (but useless old saves).

shinykecleon I do pay attention to types and recently I've fought four more fights against the adventurers but I never kill more than a couple of them before my entire party is dead. I first take out the healer as she is fairly weak and it take only a couple turns to kill her using the combined forces of Emela, Deugan and Vehr (Mardek is for healing) but after that I take out vennie who seems to sprout and unlimited supply of potions but still he gets killed. Then The mage and the swords guy are annoying as they hit high and after vennie is dead they just attack mardek only eliminating my good healing (He also has almost all the potions as I can't figure out how to disperse them among party members) then with the power of the two of their attacks the rest of my party falls fairly quickly.

LOL, six message in a row spam. Anyhow, after replicating this problem multiple times, then booting windows to check if it happens there, then coming back to linux... I can't make the bug happen any more. Hehe. Setting rating back to 5/5... and making LOTS of backup of my save files. n.n

Well, I removed my flash cache and started again, got a little way in, saved, reloaded the page, and the load button was not greyed out but there were no games listed. I cannot play this game all the way through without being able to save and load, which means I have to rate it 1/5. Which is a shame, because going on the first game and that this one is obviously longer I was planning on giving it 5/5.

OK, the save system is completely screwed. I started again, making a new save at every point, then in the corridor leading up to the same bug I got before I went to the save screen and all but one of my saves have disappeared! I create a new slot, immediately go into the save screen again and... the new save isn't there! I save over the old save, that seems fine, and then I try to make another save, and BOTH saves disappear!

What the hell? I played to the mine, got the bug mentioned in the description text, reloaded the page, and now BOTH my chapter 1 and 2 saves are gone!

Ugh... just how common is it for the zombies to drop the key? I've been searching for a while and remember getting it in my old file...
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Thnx. Of course, I had to start my game over and spare the bandit.... but ive gotten to the tainted grotto, so I'm on a role. Hard Badge, here we come! (wow, that was kinda cheesy)

shinykecleon --- Thx loads. You're my life saver, mate...
For the trilobyte keys - one of them is an item dropped by zombies walking around in Canonia.... and another can be found from one of the miner in the bar of Gozner (if you chose not to kill him earlier in the game, he will be there)

Anubis, keep in mind the critical role TYPES play in a battle. Bernard can be easily struck down by Verhn's Smite Evil, for he is a dark type and therefore a light attack is very powerful against him. Also, defeat the healer first, she is a nuicance to the rest of the battle.

The adventurer battle is plain old annoying every time you get the enemies health down to below 50 one guy pops a potion and the girl cures them and even with four people hitting one person turn after turn they just don't die. The battle last for almost a half hour before I ran out of mana and potions so I couldn't heal my people before they were killed.

Finkyshaga, could you give me the locations of the Tribolite keys? I found one in the Tainted Grotto and one in Social Fox's Tomb, but the other two seem to have once again escaped my grasp. I remember getting a key from the zombies in one of the towns... PS the entrance to the cave is in the southeast corner of the Eastern Glens (second area).

rastaman try training more and getting better items then kill the white mage first then blk mage then thief then warrior

i started to really like the game until the other group of adventurers came along. that fight is absolutely ridiculous and stupid. i died (of course) because you don't give any warning that the hardest battle in the frieking game is coming up, meaning i had half HP and MP and no items shared around. absolutely ridiculous. 1/5 just for that

Game is pretty cool , though i didn't liked to start again the whole game to slay the dragon and do trilobitte thing. On next game, at the end you should make it possible to continue, but not having any updates or something like that...

Very well done! Old school RPG goodness with a fresh twist and great dialog. Total fan humor, and fan = nerd. Awaiting Chapter 3!

This game, in short, is incredible. No amount of praise or compliments can replicate this old-school masterpiece. As a huge fan of RPGs, I may not be the most unbiased source, but as a use of Kongregate I am very pleased and give this game many props. Kong even realizes how popular and prosperous this game is, as it gives a total of 96 points to obsessive completionists. Now, if only they would release chapter 3 so we can indulge in more RPG-y goodness...

I cannot stress enough how much this game deserves a five out of five. I have almost no complaints. In fact, I got none. this is as close to perfection as you can get, if the graphics were slightly better, maybe a few more items and such, this would be a counsle game. 5/5
