This is the first adventure game I've played - so bear with me!

I have sack, rope, hook, branch, silver and gold keys, sword, shovel, hammer, nails, bow, arrow, fishing pole, club, tickey, passring, sunstone and leaves.

I fed sickly guy - he said he is grateful but nothing else. I've tried hiding in sunflowers and keep getting eaten. I have two notes and one password. Have been to garden and forest repeatedly. Found gem in cave and gave it up -

I think that I have a reasonable map of cave, forest, garden and perimeter.

Now What? and thanks for your help!


> > OK some progress and I have learned my lesson re maps! I had to give up the sword but received a magic ring - I have gone back where I lost the sword to see if I could get it back somehow - but no luck. I have read two notes in the forest and the lion is still eating me. The creature I saved keeps thanking me and I have given up another carrot to the creature with the long ears.

> Go back to the cave and take a good look around. Keep checking your inventory while you're there. Sometimes things have a way of just popping up. Go down to where the lion is and just do something kind of quiet. You need to make a map. You will never get through the game without one. You're done with the creature with the big ears. The guy you gave the fish to is in the enchanted forest. Like Mandi said the southwest corner. Go and get paper right now and start the map!!!! From start to finish.
