Switching Characters
There are a large number of different
characters you can control in the game
and you can easily switch control from
one to the other. Switching allows you to
use the characters’ special skills, weap-
ons, abilities, strength, or size (large and
small) to your advantage in progressing
through the adventure. For example, if
there is a small opening, why not switch
to a small figure like a Dwarf, and see if
he can fit through it, stand close to the
other character and press the
C button
to switch.
Teaming Up Characters
Your selected character can also team
up and control other unique characters.
This allows them to do exciting things
like flying (with the Gryphon); racing at
high speed (with the Horse) or smashing
big structures (with the Giant). To Team
Up with a Gryphon, Horse or Giant
stand close to the team-up character
and press the
C button.

Special Items
The game features many different special items that can
be used in the adventure to great effect. Look out for them.
Here are a few:
Grappling Hook
This is a length of rope with a hook
on the end that you can aim and
throw. It can be lodged at the top of
a high wall allowing your character,
and others in the party, to climb it.
Torch
A torch will light up a target
or an area.
Power Smash
Characters with Power Smash
ability can lunge forward and do
massive damage to any object or
structure ahead of them. Sometimes
a Power Smash is the only way to get
through some difficult obstructions.
