2. INFO
=============
Remember, this is NOT step-by-step walkthrough, it's an Eye of Beholder after
all. If you want, I can add some useful things, like Dream Team. Of course you
can send me yours teams, hints or anything, and I will put them in next version
of this Walktrough (It'll be FAQ/Walkthrough then :)). Besides, I'll place here
only locations of important and/or needen items - you must find the rest
yourself. And I must warn you: my English is not very well and I know that very
well, so please don't send me e-mails about it.

3. WALKTHROUGH
=================
The game starts in forest. You will fight with wolves here - don't worry,
they're weak. You must find a temple here, or Old Woman, who will take you there
(DON'T kill her!!!).
When you enter Temple, kill both Clerics - it is rather neccessary. Also there
is a switch here, which will open teleport to a chamber, where you can resurrect
your dead companions (let's call it Ressurection Chamber :)). Anyway, you can
now go down into Catacumbs.
CATACUMBS
Your main task here is to find three Femur bones, and don't forget to save any
parchment, which'll be needed later.
When you enter first level, remember: some walls are illusions. To open some
walls you must find switches. You can open door using Grey Key. Look for North
Wind - this artifact is needed, so don't throw it away. Entrance to next level
is on north - east. There's also a guy named Insal there - not too friendly.
Watch out for Spiders - if they'll poison your character, he's as good as dead
(unless you have Neutralize Poison spell, but I'm sure you haven't, so be
careful). You can find Neutralize Poison scroll (oh! :)) here and Cooper Key.
Now return to the first level.
Now find second entrance to lower level. There's a lever there: use it couple of
times, but watch out for Fireballs. You can take Skull Key now. Use it on a door
nearby - you must fight with quite strong Skeletons. Beat them and take another
Skull Key. In a big chamber you will find among others Darkmoon Key. Now return
to the entrance of this level and find a false wall. Another figt, and you'll
get second Darkmoon Key, Plate Mail and Complete Set of Elf Bones - use them in
Resurrection Chamber - who the hell is this!? Oh, it's just a wizard :D. He will
join you if you want. Now return to Catacumbs and explore second level some more
- you can meet here Calandra (Fighter) and Shorn (Cleric) - they can join you
too (remember: you can't have more than six team members). Further north - east
open two doors - there's a East Wind there (another needed artifact). You can
break one of the walls with your weapon. That's it - entrance to level 3.
It may be hard to beat those Ghosts (or something :)), but don't worry: you'll
face much stronger enemies in this game. There's a false wall on the West - kill
all enemies and get Spider Key. You can open North - Western door with it. Now
you'll face some ant-lookin` monsters. They can poison you - be careful. You
will also find some things here, like Darkmoon Key and West Wind. When you get
them, return to upper level.
Open Southern door. Now you must place any items on four corner and middle plate.
Well, this part is a little annoying: some walls are false, you must find
Darkmoon Key, Spider Key and Stone Gem. In Eastern part of this place use two
Darkmoon Keys - you'll get South Wind and (guess what) Darkmoon Key (you guessed,
right? :)) Go forward, untill you'll return to the Temple main hall. Use all
four Winds on the wall with clouds, and enter
MANTIS TEMPLE
Go North. You'll meet Tanglor here - quite useful Cleric. In the next room kill
a Mantis - you'll get Mantis Key. Now go South. Throw dagger at switch behind a
hole, and enter teleport - another Mantis Key (damn, it's starting
again :( Open door, and enter another room. Well, it may take some time:
destroy every cocoon and Mantis. Take out Diamond Eye and put it where it was
(quite funny, I must say). You'll get Mantis Idol and Cooper Key. Next find a
Stone Mouth (???????), and give them three Femur Bones (you have them, right?
They're in Catacumbs) - you will recieve a Bone Key. Return to this level's
entrance and head East (you can pass using a road, which'll show from time to
time). Now you must fight with some Mantis - it's hard fight. Win, and take a
Bone Key. Push lever, open door: there's a Sword called ''Hunger'' there (it's
needed later!). Now use Cooper Key and enter next level.
New enemies here - Wasps. They can poison or/and Paralyze you, so try to kill
them fast or just avoid them. Take Cooper Key, and use Bone Key to open a door.
You'll enter chamber with four levers. When standing in entrance to this chamber:
pull left, right, second right, then enter opened hallway. Push rock in wall,
and then return to chamber with levers and pull the last lever. When you'll find
entrance to next level, an Old Man will appear and he'll warn you about death
waiting for you behind door to the right. What to do? Of course: ignore old
man's babbling and get a move on :)).
Open door number two. Kill Snakes and take Darkmoon Key. Now explore this level,
but be very careful: Beholders can be really annoying. Remember about false
walls - there's two here. You should find Rotten Food (behind those hard to open
doors). You'll need it, so don't throw it! After killing some Beholders you'll
find Darkmoon Key. When you enter one of the halls leading West, find a switch.
Next enter another false wall - there's a place, when you can put any item, and
it'll change into a stone. You need five stones. When you'll open Western door
using Darkmoon Key, another chamber with another few Stone Mouths (!!!!!!!).
Give them: Mantis Idol, Sword "Hunger", any potion, five stones, any Parchment
and Rotten Food. One of them must be attacked with a sword, if I remember
clearly. Or maybe it was doors? :) No matter. The last thing needed by the
Mouths is Red Gem - you can get it on this level (there's a new door). Now you
can enter West Gate. You will see Dran Draggore. Geez, this guy really likes to
talk stupid things. It's a shame that i can't throw any tomatoes at him :)))))
So, when he'll stop talking and disappear, enter next level. Oh, BTW: you can't
come back, because he sealed doors. Whoops! :)
Use teleports to get four Darkmoon Keys. You must now figt with really strong
Beholders - their Death Spell is really deadly (heh :)), and besides they
explode when killed. Damned suckers. There's a false wall on South. When you'll
find a sign "Rest and prepare for the journey that awaits", be ready to pass
labyrinth. You must go: West, push Button, South, take Crystal Hammer, West,
South, East and touch Moon Sign. Oh, did I say something about Beholders waiting
for you there? No? Whoops again :)))) Anyway you'll end at Temple first level.
Open door to the right using Cooper Key. Search this place - there's a key under
the bed. If you have thief in your party, he can open closed doors. And watch
out for Clerics. When you'll see a Shield, destroy it with Crystal Hammer. It's
time to enter
TOWER
Look for a false wall - you can take Polished Shield there. When you'll see
(next level) two statues, use on them Dispel Magic. Watch out for moving holes
(what the hell!?). There's also room filled with Dragons. Unfortunately, you
must defeat them all to get Soul Gem. Beware! They can use Pertify, which may
wipe out your team really quick. By using teleports you'll get Heart Gem, and
behind a false wall next to the first teleport - Body Gem. Use all three gems in
Northern chamber. Now defeat this creepy thing (?) and get Crystal Key. Move two
levers, push the button and take Amulet of Life. In chamber with holes, you must
first push the button, and then throw a dagger at monster, when he'll stand on
platform. Watch out for Fireballs from the walls (what a ryme :)) - you'll found
another Polished Shield. In Southern part of this place there's a Crimson Ring -
you must have it. When you'll see three levers: move middle and right and get
Shell Key. Talk with Mouths (this is reeeealy something, don't you think? :)) -
they'll challenge you. You must leave all Crosses and Magic Books, so forget
about magic for now. If you want them back, first kill some Turtle guys, and
then - a dinosaur (Mastodont I think). Destroy Crystal Wall by using any weapon.
You'll get your things back, with Eye of Talon and Polished Shield. Find sign
"The Sentry" and throw a dagger in one of the platforms. Place Eye of Talon in
hole on the wall, and then puy it out.
Next level. Watch out for moving hole. You'll get another Polished Shield. In
dead-end chamber look for a switch in the wall. Find ANOTHER (:) Polished Shield.
Next find a Starfire and put it in a hole. You'll see Khelben's vision. Yeah,
very encouraging :) Take Amulet of Ressurection. Last Polished Shield is nearby
(false wall). Pick up Tooth and put it into skull. You'll see another vision
(it's Dran Draggore again). In the next room you must place any item on every
platform. But it's not that easy: when you'll stand on any corner platform, and
throw an item into teleport, it'll be placed on one of those columns. To start
from beggining stand on middle platform. If you do this, a path will open.
You'll find Crystal Key there.
It's time for the last level of this Tower. Place six mirrors in their places.
Watch out for enemies here: Ghosts and funny lookin` girls with snakes on head
(Nagas or something?). Go West, North and then East, don't forget to take Stone
Dagger and Tooth along the way. In chamber with four Nagas (?..I'll call them
Nagas) you must quickly cast Hold Person on them, because only when they're
standing on platforms, Eastern door will open. Here search for the Hilt of Talon.
Push a brick in the wall. Put Tooth into mouth (quite normal this time :)). Now
enter next chamber and stand on the platform. You'll hear laugh, and Draggore
will send you to a little spooky place (In his opinion i believe :)).
Well, not only moving holes, but also very strong Giants! Try to kill them by
using Slay Living (Cleric's spell, 5th level). They're really tough. But there's
one friendly Giant, who'll give you Talon's Tongue. Put Stone Dagger in door,
and after teleportation take Cooper Key. You can open door by using Crimson Key.
Put Hilt, Tongue and Eye in correct places. Tada! Let's get this damned Dran
Draggore!
DRAGAN DRAGORRE'S LAIR
Hey, not so fast. First you must find him, right? Go upstairs. Take Crimson Ring
and change any three items into Glass Spheres here (BTW: you may already have
them, without using any items: they can be found in Catacumbs and Mantis Temple).
Move two levers and leave. Put any items on two platforms, kill Clerics and take
another Crimson Key. In a room with many teleports find Sticky Paper. Put
Crimson Ring into hole, and take...umm..sorry, I forgot, anyway take what you
can :). Oh, look! Crimson Ring is escaping! :DDDDDDD Oh my, this is funny! Catch
it by using Sticky Paper. You can also get the best armor here: behind a false
wall push the button - Shell of Rejoice is yours! When you'll meet strange
person, touch it and recieve a coin. Green barriers can be destroyed by
Disintegrate spell. Put three Glass Spheres into their places and pull lever.
Cast Dispel Magic on blue fog. Now kick another Dran's servant butt. Before
going upstairs, PREAPARE YOURSELF!!! When you thin you're ready, take him on. I
can't advise anything. Just attack him with your best spells and weapons, and
maybe you'll kill him. Anyway - good luck. Oh, did I mention that he turns into
a DRAGON? No? Another "Whoops"? :))
When you beat him, congratulate yourself - nice job! Now you can play in Eye of
the Beholder 3 with clear conscience :))
