and the answere from rocksfan

Weird. I don't understand way it's doing that.

Can you give a Screenshot of both the room and your item list?

and the ansere from rocksfan

Ok. I see. You DO NOT have the boss key.

The key with the "?" is the compass. Go back to the room I mentioned and try that whistle trick. You will find what you need there.

Is the key in a room that has 4 crystals which when struck opens the whistle tiles then whistling once opens a bridge and a second whistle makes a chest appear? If so, I have got the item from that chest. If not which room is it?

No. That was the book. It's in a the room where you needed to use the wand to light the torch, then blow the whistle to get to the stairs. There is a pit in between the stairs and you. There are things that block the satirs. Using the wand lowers the posts, blowing the whistle creates the path to the stairs, blowing the whistle relowers the posts. Blow the whistle again.

The one just before getting to the area you are stuck in.

Where is the boss key for level 6? I have worked my way around past the room with the wind wizards and got to a point where I need the hammer.

Got it, cleared level 6.

Where is the girl in the well. I got the red tunic, the crystal and the key beneath the statue that needed the super bomb? I believe I have fallen down in every room that I can, is there a room that has two different fall down areas?

I have thoroughly searched the top level and cannot find anything. It seems that the room north of the room with the statue would be the place to be because there is a ledge with steps up to it. I have used the whistle everywhere, there is no target to shot anything at, I have tried to walk through every wall, I have used the lens everywhere, I have walked through every drain. Where is the girl?

and the answere from rocksfan is :
It seems you have found a bug. Getting to the area is impossible in the version you have.
I have fixed it and have uploaded the fix "]HERE .
Grab it and you should be able to get where you need to go.

Level 9, second floor, I have cleared every room around the C shaped portion of this floor and gotten to a room with a locked door on the north side. Although I have the magic key, I cannot open the door. What does the magic key do if it does not open all locks (except the boss door of course)? Where is the key I missed, I have not gotten a key on this floor after the first room (which led me to the room with the boss door and the statues that required simultaneous reflecting)? If it is the room with the wind wizards and the reflecting crystal, how do I access it (I have cleared the room but cannot figure out how to activate the crystal)?

( Rocksfans answere )
Can you give a screen shot of the room?

The only one on that floor that I see that has a locked door to the north is a Boss door.

Ok. That was level 8, not 9.

The door you are looking at is a Boss Door.
You need to find the Boss key on that floor.

There must be a strategy for that room that I cannot figure out. I have had to get back there 12 times now and I still have not even come close. Can you help?

It's simple. Use the wizzrobes magic to trigger the crystal. You will hear the secret sound, but where is the secret. Hidden under something. Try not to kill the wizzrobes.

I got it. It took over 20 trips from the begining and over 3 hours until I finally got the wizzrobes lined up in such a way that I could reflect a red wizzrobes magic without being swept away by the wind wizzrobes.

How do I access the last 3 rooms in the upper right corner of the 4th floor of level 8. I have the sword, arrow and boss key, but cannot figure out how to get at the boss and the final key.

Where is the gold tunic in the basement of level 9? I saw an earlier post where someone found it. I have been to every room and have not found it. I think it has something to do with the room in the upper right corner that has the black wizzrobes that require reflected magic to kill. I opened the stairs and got the key but can't do anything else in that room. I cannot escape that room as the room below that has a block that I cannot move at the bottom of the stairs.
