Need help. I'm in the watchtower dungeon and am at the secret door that requires a tool. Ok cool...which tool? Tried staff dagger torches and can't seem to find the right thing. <br/>
<br/>
Magic mouth- what's the password?<br/>
<br/>
Thanks a bunch

before someone points you directly to the answers, here some more hints:<br/>
<br/>
- the needed tool is hidden in a crypt<br/>
- the password has something to do with the old "Ultima" games, namely the third in the series

I cant find the tool,<br/>
In what crypt...

<hr>

<div class="postinfo">Post by zognutZ on 11/08/2011, 05:24:25</div>

note on password: last i was there it wouldn't work unless it was all lower case ...

<div class="postinfo">Post by icetear on 11/08/2011, 07:11:35</div>

The crypt is hidden in the forest, you can force your way through some trees near the castle walls outside the ruin camp.

I just tried it with version 1.4 - it is working with a capital first letter as well. If you have any problems with it, please contact me directly.<br/>

Hm, <br/>
I cannot find the Magic mouth in the watchtower. I only find a Place with a hint, when i am downstairs on the way to the Goblins. "There may Be a Secret entrance". But I cannot find a doof or the MM in that Area.<br/>
<br/>
Best regards, DQ

The magic mouth we speak of is in the forest, not in the watchtower.<br/>
<br/>
There is a secret wall near the hint, just touch the walls around... and a little bit outside of the room.

<hr>

<div class="postinfo">Post by Don Quixote on 19/08/2011, 22:06:31</div>

Thanks for the hint. <br/>
Maybe  the Dialog should Be shown Even if you Walk against the Wall. I had no idea, that it is Important to Touch every Wall.<br/>

<div class="postinfo">Post by icetear on 20/08/2011, 00:39:33</div>

With the next update (1.5) you are able to just bump into the wall. This will trigger any actions (e.g. chests, secret doors etc.).<br/>

There was a question popping up about aquiring new spells.<br/>
<br/>
Your magic wielders will be able to aquire new spells each two charakter levels starting with level 1.<br/>
<br/>
So if someone blast an Orc with an Lv 3 lightning strike he woul be Lv 7.<br/>

<div class="postinfo">Post by icetear on 23/08/2011, 21:18:53</div>

Not quite...<br/>
<br/>
You start with Level 1 spells, get the 2nd Level ones with 3... and the 3rd Level ones with character lvl 5.

<div class="postinfo">Post by Don Quixote on 26/08/2011, 15:00:44</div>

Hi Mario,<br/>
<br/>
With the New Version, Walking into a chest doesn't trigger an Action.<br/>
Nice New items -thank you.<br/>
<br/>
Another question. The Version ends up at the old Tree asking for the weapon?<br/>
<br/>
Another thought. My Fighter, Paladin, Hunter and bard wear all the Same Heavy armour. Maybe it would Be a good idea To Limit the use of Heavy armour for bares and Hunters.<br/>

Hi DQ :-)<br/>
<br/>
Yes, that's right - the action trigger will come with the next update, stay tuned!<br/>
The version ends with releasing the prisoner from the watchtower prison (the final boss has the key), and returning to the armsmaster in Castle Cranbourgh.<br/>
<br/>
You are right, we have to take a closer look at the items. In addition, new skills are planned for different classes so that they differ more.<br/>

<div class="postinfo">Post by Polter Hjasenspaten on 29/08/2011, 16:00:32</div>

Hi folks,<br/>
<br/>
now I need some help. I don't have even a hint like "there is a secret door" in the watchtower dungeon, and I really touched and bumped into every single wall in that dungeon.<br/>
I got that staff from the crypt und that strange herb (and the watchtower key^^).<br/>
<br/>
And there is this small tower in the mountains and my rogue can't pick the lock. Any hint where I can find the key? :) <br/>
<br/>
thanks a lot, Polter

<hr>

<div class="postinfo">Post by Nimue on 29/08/2011, 17:02:35</div>

The Watchtower with the secret door is, in fact, the "small tower in the mountains" :) You might want to ask the armsmaster at the castle for help before proceeding.

<hr>

<div class="postinfo">Post by Polter Hjasenspaten on 30/08/2011, 10:25:18</div>

Ah, I see! Now I've managed this dungeon. As far as I can see, I have to be patient 'till the quest against the evil hordes will start with the next update. ;)

Is there any way to find out password that the MM i asking for? I'm totally lost here... Thanks

The names the mouth mentions are taken from the classic Ultima series. If you aren't familiar with those games, try the Ultima wiki:  <URL url="http://codex.ultimaaiera.com/wiki/Main_Page">[[http://codex.ultimaaiera.com/wiki/Main_Page]]</URL>.

<div class="postinfo">Post by Mattuse on 05/09/2011, 23:48:37</div>

Boat? Mechanism? Hollow wall? I'm completely stumped.. Just perhaps a clue.. I've explored all areas.. Love the game - finished bards tale with pencil and graph paper in 86' while in the Navy - Great job!!

<hr>

<div class="postinfo">Post by Theodor Keppler on 06/09/2011, 08:57:26</div>

Hi Mattuse,<br/>
<br/>
there is a (oneway) boat loacted on the underground river below the mountain ridges watch tower.<br/>
You might notice there is a hidden mechanismen that can be found in a secret room but I do not want to tell too much.<br/>
<br/>
Probably you have already passed the river and not even noticed any challange?  :) <br/>
<br/>
And welcome to the board!<br/>

<br/>
Thanks...! Solved it ;-)<br/>
<br/>
Now on to the next issue ;-)<br/>
<br/>
I've found the hidden door near the underground river, but I need an item to open it....? What where who? I've tried everything...

<hr>

<div class="postinfo">Post by Theodor Keppler on 07/09/2011, 09:19:04</div>

Hi Dannyboy,<br/>
<br/>
this seems to be a problem.<br/>
Probably another profession is used to open old stuck doors like a grave robber for example...<br/>
<br/>

<br/>
P.S.: Hope this is hint can guide you to the correct area where to look for the tool.

Hello new to the boards here. Ive been playing the Silversword for a couple of weeks now. I found it just in time,I was in retro mode and playing through BT1 2 and 3 on Dosbox on my PC when the thing crashed on me.  I was in a gaming abyss when I came across this lifesaver. I was a bit stumped on some of these areas also. Looks like I have some more exploring to do. Thanks for the Ultima tip because I never got into that series I went from BT to Pool of Radiance and some sequels.

Hello Maximus and welcome to the forums!<br/>
<br/>
Thank you very much for playing and enjoying our little piece of retro software :-)<br/>

Hi,<br/>
<br/>
Is anyone having problems with using bows?  I have plenty of arrows, but keep being told that I'm out of ammo?<br/>
<br/>
Thanks

<hr>

<div class="postinfo">Post by icetear on 17/10/2011, 12:53:48</div>

Hello Stumeister,<br/>
<br/>
yes, this is a nasty bug - very sorry for that!<br/>
An update has already been submitted and should be ready for download from the AppStore within the next days.<br/>
<br/>
Regards<br/>
Mario

<hr>

<div class="postinfo">Post by Stumeister on 17/10/2011, 13:00:14</div>

Thank you.<br/>
<br/>
Is this also the case with the door (far SE below 4 adjoining northerly doors) on the lowest level of the abandoned tower which does not open?  Either that or, I have yet to find the means.<br/>
<br/>
Great game though and I'm looking forward to the full version.

<hr>

<div class="postinfo">Post by icetear on 17/10/2011, 13:01:54</div>

No - that door is closed for now ;-)<br/>

I want to first say.... Well done!  Excellent game.  A true gem.  <br/>
<br/>
I have finished everything in the lite version, I think.  Just anxiously waiting the full version...  However, I do have 2 questions?<br/>
1.  I'm having the same issue with the bows and arrows, where it tells me I'm out of ammo.  I understand a fix is under way?<br/>
2.  Any tips on how to get past the 5 guardians of the grove?

<hr>

<div class="postinfo">Post by icetear on 20/10/2011, 00:37:57</div>

Hello Gwendor,<br/>
<br/>
Thank you very much :-)<br/>
<br/>
1. The fix is already live. With the actual version 1.9.1 your bows should loadable with arrows.<br/>
2. They are not supposed to be fought within the first levels. They guard a special path which will be opened in the full version.<br/>
<br/>

Awesome game!  I played Bard's like crazy as a kid and have recently replayed II and III via DOSBox, which I highly recommend too!!<br/>
<br/>
Quick question as I just started dungeoning, can't seem to navigate back to Gwyddon, any suggestions on location?<br/>
<br/>
Thanks!

<hr>

<div class="postinfo">Post by icetear on 21/10/2011, 14:39:00</div>

Thank you very much Spooks :-)<br/>
<br/>
Gwyddon should await your return just south of the ruin camp, between the water and some walls.<br/>
<br/>

Mario

<div class="postinfo">Post by Spooks on 21/10/2011, 15:09:55</div>

Ahaha, well that's embarrassing  :oops: <br/>
<br/>
I have to say your response time is incredible! I'll play the lite version several times over with different characters to see if I can discover any bugs/fixes/suggestions not previously mentioned as I anxiously await the Xmas full version!<br/>
<br/>
...Cheers...

Ok I am lost or blind. I have wandered through the watchtower dungeon and cave area hitting every wall. I can't find this secret door that is there. Only thing I can find is a barred cell door that I can't open. No mention of a secret anywhere even with minor revelation cast. Please help.... :?:  unless I am in the wrong area.

There is an area in the caves where you get a message about the wall sounding hollow. The secret door is near that place, but simply walking into it will not be enough, you'll need an item to open it. I had a hard time finding it too, it's a <I>''really''</I> secret door ;)

<hr>

<div class="postinfo">Post by icetear on 26/10/2011, 09:14:20</div>

With the new update 1.9.2 it shouldn't be too hard to find the secret door.<br/>
The hint has been moved nearer to the door, and you can trigger it by touching or bumping into it.<br/>
But it is correct (and intended) that minor revelation won't show it!<br/>
<br/>
