Q. How do I go about finding the crowns? A. Each crown can be reached by only one particular character using the items that are exclusive to each character. By trial and error, and testing the different character's abilities, you will be able to find out exactly where each character can go. To make your way to the crystals, you must learn how to move and manipulate blocks. While other characters can destroy or throw blocks, Xemn has a very unique ability in that he can move blocks one space at a time with his Glove. By holding the A button, and pushing against a block, he will be able to move it in the direction that he is facing - up, down, left, right or diagonally. He can also move a block to the left or right while standing on top of the block by facing in the direction that he would like to move and jumping straight up and down. This is a very useful technique when Xemn must traverse a long gap. He can ride a block by facing the direction that he would like it to move, standing close to the edge and jumping straight up and down. The block will move over in the direction that xemn is facing and slide under his feet so that he will end up standing on the opposite edge. When xemn is using this method to traverse across a room, you may find it useful to take the cursor off the Glove so that he doesn't accidentially move a block in the wrong direction. One thing to keep in mind is that there are virtually no dead ends in this game. Sometimes you will need a specific character to pass by an area and sometimes you will be able to get by using any character if you know what to look for. There are a lot of bricks that dissolve upon contact. If you get to an area that looks like a dead end, it is very important to touch all of the walls and test the bricks to see if they might disappear. Also, long stretches of spiked floors may seem impassible as your character will lose a lot of energy by walking on spikes. If you hold Up on the control pad while your character if on the spikes, however, he or she will not take any damage from them. If you destroy, throw or move the wrong blocks and would like to restore the scene to its original position, you can leave the area by climbing up or down a ladder and returning. The blocks will reset. Q. How do i get to the mother's crown? A. The crown that only Roas' mother can get to is down and to the right from the painting of the dragon. As is common in this adventure, you must wind through a large area in order to get to the crosn. From the dragon, move to the left, climb down the ladder and drop three screens. Climb down the next ladder to the left, reach the top of the next screen and walk to the right across the blocks untli you get to a ladder. Climb down to the bottom of the ladder and work over to the left. In the next area there will be a ladder in the floor. Climb down this ladder, walk to the left and head down the next ladder. When you reach the bottom, press down on the fourth block from the right. After you drop, move through the blue area to the right and jump up to the next screen in the space between the spikes. Then move right to the next screen and so on
