Jypta Ruins & the Waterfall Shrine
 |
Landstalker, one of the most advanced graphical games in the early 90's. The controls were confusing to learn, but once you learned them, Landstalker would become one of the funnest, toughest, and best RPG's anyone would play. Note the introduction as Nigel steals the Statue of Jypta. This is what the game is like, and you are in for a LONG ride if you play this game. Strap in and enjoy the walkthrough |
| After Nigel shows you some of his moves while stealing the Statue of Jypta, he takes it to an old man who pays 2000 Gold for it. Nigel is then visited by a wood nymph named Friday. You will get to know her better later. She explains her situation and Nigel agrees to go with her, to find the treasures of King Nole. After losing the enemy to the chase, Friday finds Nigel a huge bird to take him to the Island of Mercator, where the treasures are located. |

You land near the entrance to the cave of King Nole. Havine spent all his earnings, Nigel is a bit upset. You then take control of Nigel. Take this time to try to get used to the controls, as it is quite difficult to learn. When you are ready, head into the cave. There are no monsters in the cave, so take your time and explore everything. When you get to a ledge you cannot reach, pick up the box and move it over to the side. Jump on it and continue. |
| When you get to here, the orange button you press when you step on it will release a giant boulder. Did someone call for Harison Ford? Run from the boulder until you reach the end. Try to jump over and you will miss. You have no choice but to jump. You will land on a raft that will carry you down the stream and over the waterfall at the end, where a furry, bear-like girl finds Nigel out cold. She runs to tell her grandfather. Nigel awakens in a nearby village. Friday gets Nigel up and tells him that they must continue their hunt. |

In town there are 2 Ekeekes and 3 Lifestocks to be found. People say that Nigel should see the sage at the Waterfall Shrine. Head outside of town and a Massan Soldier will say that the People of Gumi smashed the bridge. Keep going. Make sure to enter the big tree past the first bridge (just enter then exit). Go to the next scene and go up the hill when you get to the broken bridge. Do not enter the cave, but keep going. You will eventually reach an entrance that is marked by 2 pillars. Enter it. |
| Go down the first hall and into the next room. Fight the Gray Bubbles (pretty easy), and climb the stairs. Jump across the hole and to the chest to where the Key is. Go back down and into the next room. Here, you must jump on the moving platform to the other side of the pit. If you fall, just climb back up the stairs. On the other side, kill the bubbles and go down the stairs and unlock the door (use the Key under the inventory menu). Go down the left side and press the button. Go back to the room with the large pit, and press the button there. |

Go down the stairs it reveals and follow the path up another stairs. Once you get there, you are attacked by Orcs. Stand at where the gate is and let them come to you. Slash the daylights out of them and the door will open. Go in and talk to Prospero. He tells what little he knows about King Nole's Treasures. He says to stop by later and he might know more. Exit the Waterfall Shrine. |
| As you go back to Massan, you will notice that the Bridge is fixed. But it is blocked for now. Head back to Massan and the Mayor will come running out, telling the once the bridge was fixed, the Gumi tribe came across and kidnapped Fara, his granddaughter. He asks that Nigel help save Fara. Rest up at the Inn if you need it and head across the bridge. |
