SwordQuest: Earthworld

Place the items from the Treasure column into the zodiac chambers listed in the Chamber column to reveal the clues, which are also provided. The Clue indicates a page and panel number from the comic. The clue from the poem (Prime Numbers) tells you the clues that are valid (page 13, 5, 17, 37, and 47). The final solution was “Quest in Tower Talisman Found.”

SwordQuest: FireWorld

The numbers in FireWorld are a countdown to let you know how many chambers you’ve cleared. They do not relate to comic book pages. The clue from the poem (add to Seven) tells you the clues that are valid come from page numbers that total seven when added together (7, 16, 25, 34, 43). Other pages have words, but you can ignore them. The final solution was “Leads to Chalice Power Abounds.”

Before you can reach the screen to input the solution, you must reveal the numbers (from 00-09). Place the treasures listed in the Treasures column into the chamber listed in the Chamber # column. The rooms must be completed in order, but you can place all the items in the second room before placing the object in the first room. Just return to the second chamber, pick up one of the objects, and then replace it.
