Fairlight 2 - A Trail of Darkness: does anyone remember...
Jerry
potion (from a shelf hanging in the air) and I've reached what I think is
the final door. It's guarded by a non-moving spectre. I'm sure that to end
the game I have to get rid of the "monk" and enter the door, but I can't
kill it. I tried dropping the potion on it (like in Fairlight I), but it
doesn't work. Does anyone remember how you were supposed to defeat the
"monk" and end the game?

The info file at:

might help, although I haven't checked it.

In the first half of the game there are some potions in rooms with
three moving slabs. Is it anything to do with those?
That's just a guess by the way, I never got very far into the second
half myself.

OH BASTARD!!!! Bastard, bastard, bastard. My original tape copy of FLII
didn't load that screen either (cos it was pirated, rather than
"original", ahem...) and for years I've been wondering what that screen
looked like. I downloaded the TAP and always told myself that some day
I'd get round to playing it all the way through again just so I could see
what that damn screen was. Bugger, bugger (exits mumbling to self in an
irritated manner.......)
