THE GAME
In this part of the adventure, Laetitia has to
collect and bring aunt's home some ingredients for the magic potion:
-
4
healing mushrooms;
-
A
lux spider.
She will need the help of the old sage, so she has to find Annabel's amulet to bring to him.
PLAYING THE GAME
This part has 27 playable screens.
First, Laetitia
has to find 4 healing mushrooms.
So, she has to
speak to Ordentur to know where to find it.
The old sage tells her she can find the plant inside pentagrams' cave and gave her the key.
Inside the cave, Laetitia has to search for the 4 mushrooms.
She also has to find the keys to enter Annabel's statues rooms, where she has
to search for Annabel's amulet that is inside one of the statues.
So Laetitia has
to use her magic in the statues until the amulet is revealed.
With the 4
healing mushrooms and the amulet, Laetitia return to the surface.
Then she has to give Ordentur the Annabel's amulet and go to aunt's house and
give her the mushrooms.
After that, Runella
asks Laetitia to find the last ingredient: a lux spider.
Once again,
Ordentur tells her how and where to find a lux spider.
Laetitia will face several obstacles in her path:
- The ones that only make her energy decrease, such as:- bats
- pumpkins
- ghosts

- sharpen arrows and spears
- smoke from the chimney
- the top part of the trees (leaves and branches)
