Worked just fine for me. I had time to make the jumps, then open crates on both sides and still made it into the portal before it closed.

I'm confused about the room with the 3 Athena stautes (section B on your map) - the room just PAST the floating islands.

The three statues never attack me, and none of the portals are active save one. If I go through the active portal, I just end up on the islands. The islands bring back to the same room - islands - room - islands - room - ad nauseum. I never see any "treasure chest", nor do I see any way out of here now. What am I missing?

when you get to the island with the arched gate on it, that is when you turn around and go throught the other gate until you get to a treasure chest. the chest has a soul stone to put in the athena statue. kill her then another gate opens..rinse repeat

did i get everything on there now?

Ok, I just got stuck here too. Going to try it now. Good map, thanks.

edit: Yup, works like a charm.

Also I would like to add that there is a level 9 treasure chest in the area behind lord kingston. When you raise the platforms (in between the fire spouts), a secret doorway opens. The doorway is opposite of the knight in the middle. The doorway also stays open very shortly.

OK what is the deal with the room with all the Shadow gates and Lord Kingston's statue and the Templar Knight statues, I have read that you activate the two templars and a "ledge" appears, done this five or six times and no ledge? is the ledge supposed to appear on the small alcove that is in the middle of the room?

[lunaraven]

the ledge you activate with the templar knights is in anotehr room with flame throwers, the only thing to activate in the room you are talking about is the lord kingston is to put the sword in the statue's hand. the ghost will then lead you through the doors to the islands and from the islands you will come out on top of the little building in that room, the rune glyph is up there.

I am in the process of finishing the Demo and am considering purchasing
the game. I have been reading mostly this forum but have checked out
a couple others and from what I have read Dungeon Lords is in sore need
of a Strategy Guide. I have checked with some other gamers I know who
have tried the game and with so many problems and obscure puzzles and
hidden treasure that is listed on this forum most have them have stopped
playing. I have used Strategy Guides as they make up for poor mapping
and also supply valuable information on creating a character, weapons,
magic, armor and much more.

Strategy Guides cost extra but are definitely worth the price especially
if you plan to replay a game as a different character. I tried the
Assassin in Diablo II/LOD and even though I found the character lacking
in what was needed to get through the game I did enjoy playing him.

Has anyone heard anything about the possibilty of a Strategy Guide for
Dungeon Lords? I know several long time gamers who would love one.

I think I've heard of a site that has lots of information about Dungeon Lords, including a partial walkthrough. Let me look it up here.... oh, yes, it's this one.

You can access our Dungeon Lords subsite here.

I will be changing the color of my posting font, as after reading my last
post white is simply easier to read and now I have to pick a font.

I have noticed that what you type here doesn't always turn out the
same in your Preview and was wondering if this can be corrected or
am I doing something wrong.

Thanks for your response and I will make use of it more than I have
in the past!
