amberstar question

[xboxown]

For people who played amberstar and finished it. I need some help please.

I don't know where to buy lockpick. Can someone help me find where I can buy lockpick?

Also, I don't know where to level my thief character either. Any help would be greatly appreciate it.

In Twinlake talking to people (animals) will indicate the hidden entrance to the secret Thieves guild in the Dancing Dragon Inn. There in the shop buy Lock picks and IIRC train Silk (the thief) to pick locks.

If you still can't find it write back and I'll tell you how to get access.

Have you fought the rats and saved the cat ?

[xboxown]

Yes! I love kitties. Of course I would save the kittie!

[meynaf]

Then the girl rewarded you with some ability. Are you able to use it somewhere ?

[xboxown]

Yes. But how does this help me with getting lockpick. I have like three places I am dying to visit, plus like four chests I need to open and I cannot do it without a lockpick.

Find the dog in the tavern and talk to him.

In 1993/1994, Atari ST user and amateur journalist Brian Burke wrote an Amberstar walkthrough for an Atari ST Public domain disk based magazine called SynTax. Over issues 24-30 he published a comprehensive guide to Amberstar.

Try not to look at it too much as it is a mish-mash of going backwards and forwards and has lots of spoilers but if you get stuck :

AHA!! Snakesign Village!! That one sells lockpick. I need a shop that sells them. Snakesign Village!! Snakesign Village!! Let me see. - looks at the map of ambserstar - Where is Snakesign Village?

AHA!! It is right here!! - pokes at the map - There you are - pokes it couple of times - ..ok..time to find that village and buy some lockpicks...once I buy lockpicks I will go back to where I lost stopped and further explorer the areas and make sure it is all 100% cleared. I REFUSED AND I WILL REPEAT...REFUSE to explore any further until I have finished everything of missed exploration and chests.

I may forget them and in future will get me stuck in the game because I will never remember to come back to them. So better make sure everything is 100% cleared.
