Player Hint Guide: QUESTS</FONT></H1>
|
|
<P>A great deal of your time on Horse Isle will be spent doing
|
|
Quests—jobs or favors for NPCs (Non-Player Characters) ranging from deliveries and finding
|
|
misplaced objects to solving mysteries and travelling the whole of
|
|
the islands to find treasure or missing persons or animals. Some
|
|
mini-games also count toward your total quest points.</P>
|
|
<P><IMG SRC="quest_stats.jpg" NAME="graphics2" ALIGN=RIGHT HSPACE=19 VSPACE=10 WIDTH=347 HEIGHT=220 BORDER=0>To
|
|
find out which quests are available to you, click the STATS button on
|
|
the BUTTON PANEL, and then scroll down to Horse Isle Adventures And
|
|
Quests and click VIEW LOG.</P>
|
|
<P>You will be shown a page such as the one at right. The quests are
|
|
in alphabetical order, and your progress through them is marked by
|
|
percentage of quests finished and number of quest points earned.
|
|
Quest points are alloted according to the time and travel needed to
|
|
complete the quest.</P>
|
|
<P>Quests are also ranked by Skill Level; that is, ranked according
|
|
to how much figuring out, searching around and general brain-power a
|
|
quest requires for completion. There are four levels:</P>
|
|
<UL>
|
|
<LI><P><B>Novice: </B> Just follow the instructions carefully and
|
|
you'll get there.</P>
|
|
<LI><P><B>Intermediate: </B>You may have to make some choices along
|
|
the way, or search for something, but you will be given definite
|
|
advice on how to proceed or where to search.</P>
|
|
<LI><P><B>Advanced: </B>Longer and more difficult puzzles which
|
|
require considerable concentration and skill on your part to
|
|
complete.</P>
|
|
<LI><P><B>Master:</B> Long, arduous and difficult puzzles, often
|
|
with multiple possible endings, that require a great deal of
|
|
patience, skill and concentration to complete. You should not
|
|
attempt these quests unless you have sufficient time to spend on
|
|
them and enough experience in the game generally to know what you're
|
|
doing and what you're likely to need!</P>
|
|
</UL>
|
|
<P>NOTE: <I>Skill Level and Quest Points awarded are not necessarily
|
|
linked. </I> The Skill Level is provided so that you know what you're
|
|
in for when you begin a quest!</P>
|
|
<P>Almost all quests end in the award of a prize, usually money. But
|
|
do not be tempted to make the quest easier on yourself by buying the
|
|
items required to finish it from other players! Doing so generally
|
|
results in a loss of money at the end of the quest; one particularly time consuming and difficult quest will net you $50,000 at
|
|
the end, but if you buy your supplies, then between supplies and the
|
|
cost of travel you will end up spending $65,000 or more to complete
|
|
it!

HINTS FOR QUESTING</FONT></FONT></P>
|
|
<P><B>Keep notes! </B> Write down who gave you the quest and where
|
|
they live, and what they want. It is extremely annoying to other
|
|
players when lazy questers repeatedly ask for instructions that NPCs
|
|
have already given them!</P>
|
|
<P><B>Be Patient! </B> Horse Isle is not a competition! You don't
|
|
have to complete every quest immediately, and you don't have to be as
|
|
advanced as everyone else. You'll get there eventually, so just slow
|
|
down and think.</P>
|
|
<P><B>Use all your tools! </B>Sometimes when you have to search for
|
|
an object, the tool that comes most immediately to mind is not the
|
|
one you need. Just because something is lost in the forest doesn't
|
|
mean it's necessarily on the forest floor. Squirrels climb!</P>
