IV. Walkthrough
################################################################################
This walkthrough isn't very long, mainly because the levels are completely
random each time you start a new game. This is also a fairly short game compared
to games now-a-days. Regardless, here's the walkthrough.
To skip to a certain section, use the "Find" feature on your browser and search
for the heading name followed by a tilde, which is this character: "~"
I. Town Number One~
II. Dungeon One~
III. Town Number Two~
IV. Dungeon Two~
I. Town Number One~
You begin inside a small village with only a few houses. There's a weapon store,
an item store, a temple, an armor store, and an identify store. As you begin,
you'll be asked which magic spell you want to start with. CHOOSE MAGIC ARROW.
Any other spell is useless right now and will not help you in the first dungeon.
After picking your spell, head north, outside town. Follow the dirt path north
and into the cave.
II. Dungeon One~
This part is the same in all dungeons, so I'll explain it. Follow the path
north, then diagonally up and right. Switch directions and head diagonally up
and left. Now you'll be in a room with two large open circles. There will be a
Goblin Fighter here, so finish him off and go down the stairs. Now comes the
part of the game which is impossible to FAQ for. The random dungeon. There will
usually be seven or eight levels to it. On the final floor, you'll venture into
a room with about eight Kobolds and a parchment of paper. Pick up the parchment
and, if you have the Rune of Return spell by now, use it. Otherwise, return up
all the stairs and back outside.
III. Town Number Two~
As you exit the dungeon, you read the parchment of paper. It says your village
has been burned down by an evil being. There's no point in going back to the
village, so take the dirt path south, then take the west path. You're now in
the second town. This town has many more shops, as well as a bank. If you want,
deposit your money in the bank. After, of course, you buy new equipment and
items. I recommend get as much better equipment as you can afford, because the
next dungeon is quite a bit harder than the first. Anything enchanted I would
recommend, especially your weapon and armor. Once you're done buying all that
you need, head north, out of the town. Follow the dirt path into the mountains,
then enter the cave. You must have the Clairvoyance spell by now, so use it in
this small area to reveal a hidden staircase.
IV. Dungeon Two~
Well, it's the final dungeon. And it's only section IV. Told you the game was
short. Anyway, this dungeon has a lot more floors than the first one. Sometimes
even up to twenty! Explore EVERYWHERE, on every floor. You'll most likely find
lots of items and equipment you can either wear, or sell in town for better
stuff. Also be sure to save before trying anything on, as many things can be
cursed. At the final floor, you'll find a hill giant called Hrungnir. You'll
know when you find it because it'll be a big brown thing throwing rocks at you.
Use all your most powerful spells on it to defeat it. Once it's dead, it'll
leave behind the Enchanted Amulet of Kings. Wear it and the story line will
unfold.
That's it. The end of the game. You can now use that saved game in the next
game, Castle of the Winds 2. Hope you enjoyed playing.

VIII. Game Tips
################################################################################
• When you first start the game, choose the Magic Arrow spell. It's the most
useful out of the starting spells.
• Never be afraid to run. If you're low on HP and fighting a monster you know
you can't defeat, just run.
• Pick up anything that isn't completely useless. You can always sell it back
in town.
• Save often! This is probably the biggest tip I can give you. Constantly save.
There are no repercussions for saving many times, so save save save! It's
also wise to save before trying on items so you know if they are enchanted or
if they are cursed.
• Get the Rune of Return spell as soon as you possibly can. It's a very useful
spell which returns you to the town, no matter how deep you are in the
dungeon.
• Pick up all and any money left behind from enemies. Even 1 counts.
################################################################################
IX. Making Your Own Character Sprite
################################################################################
To begin, open your favorite image editing program. Make sure the program
supports .ico files.
Use either the two pre-existing sprites or create your own by starting a blank
32x32 pixel canvas.
When you finish drawing your character, save it under the same folder your
cotw.exe file is under.
As you start a new game, choose "Import" and select the graphic you made.
