INTRODUCTION
The first adventure game by Discovery
takes place in Istanbul, Turkey. You play the role of a young
journalist that has been invited by his old friend to investigate
an artifact smuggler. The plot is quite interesting, despite
of the graphics (it's not very good for a 1997 game). You have
a free movement (360 degree) in almost every screen. Like the
word written on the box cover : "Act Quick or you're history",
you have to save your game very often in every difficult situation.
Now for the game.
 |
THE KILLER
Main Goals : The story unfold
at Emre's apartment. Find Emre ....
|
|
Emre's Apartment
Q : What should I do first here ?
A : Answer the telephone when it's ringing. That's your first
clue here.
Q : Where is the package that Emre
has mentioned in the phone ?
A :See that wooden brown trunk under the desk. Open it and
you'll see an expensive jewelry box. To open it, you will need
to click on the small poles that appear on the box in correct
order. Inside you'll find a scanner sketch. Hmmm..... a new
model perhaps.
Q : Where is the sequence to open
the box ?
A :You can look for the sequence inside a folder on the desk.
Open the folder, get Emre's picture, and then flip over the
picture under Emre's picture. You'll see the sequence.
Q : Where is the key to unlock the
secret door behind the curtain ?
A : Look at the left shelf, just behind the phone desk. Move
the book with title : "Art of The Carpet". Get the golden key.
Use it to unlock the door.
Q : Where can I find Emre ?
A : Don't go out yet. You need to look at several books first
before the place will appear on the map. Open the dresser's
drawer, just beside the secret door. Inside you'll see several
pictures of the mosque (this is the place that you can find
Emre). Look at the book on the right shelf, the one with title
:"Turkish Teaser". Inside you'll find a piece of paper with
some notes on it. This will explain about Emre's secret friend
: KLIO. Look at several photos of his on the dresser, table,
and the living room (important for asking some questions later
on). Finally get the polaroid camera on the desk. Notice that
cable jack on the desk ?! That's a battery recharger (you'll
need to use it later on). Now go to the Sulaymaniye mosque.
Sulaymaniye Mosque
Q : In what part of the mosque could
I find Emre ?
A : Actually, you won't find Emre here. Show his picture to
that young lad. He'll ask Emre's uncle (the old guy near him)
about Emre. Ask him everything about Emre. The lad will tell you
about his uncle, Mehmet. Then, look at the shoe stand. Pick up
the red shoe on the lower shelf. It is Emre's. Inside the shoe,
you'll find a ticket from Hotel De Lordres. Note : If you want
to look inside the mosque just go ahead, but you have to take
off your shoes first. The mosque is not important for the task
now, but it will later on.
Hotel De Lordres
Q : What should I do here ?
A : Show the ticket to the front desk man. He'll give you a
big package. Examine the package. You'll find an entry pass, scanner,
and a betting form (with Mehmet name on it). Try to use the scanner.
Hmmmm... out of battery.
Mehmet Rug Shop
Q : Nope, Emre is not here either. What
should I do ?
A : Hmmmm.... who are those guys ??? You could choose any conversation
options here. Show his uncle the betting form. Hmmm... he is hiding
something. Maybe you should go back again later.
Basilica Cistern
Q : The usher won't let me in. What should
I do ?
A : Show him the entry pass. Take the brochure on the counter
and examine it (you'll find a picture of Tear Drop column).
Q : OK, now where is Emre ? I'm tired
of his hide and seek game.
A : Go along the path until you reach the end. You'll find
Emre's death body lying on the path. Examine the body and ...........
Q : I couldn't avoid the sudden attack.
How can I escape ?
A : Use the polaroid on the killer and run as quickly as
you can while he is blinded. Akalin, the detective, will come
and ask you some questions. Answer whatever choice you want.
Gain as much information as you could.

KLIO (Emre's
Secret Companion)
Main Goals : Discover the secret
of Emre's project.
|
|
Emre's Apartment
Q : I've charged the scanner, but it
ask for the password when I'm trying to use it. What is the password
?
A : His uncle knows something about it, go there.
Q : I'm always killed when I try to
exit the room. What should I do ?
A : Use the secret door to get out. Hmmm.... the killer again.
This is more interesting.
Mehmet Rug Shop
Q : What should I do here ?
A : Choose whatever option you want, but don't forget to choose
the 'Afacan' option (he'll give you a photo because of this option).
Flip over the photo to see the writing behind it. This is the
password for the scanner. Go somewhere and try to use the scanner.
Enter : AFACAN as the password. It will lead you to a university.
Istanbul University
Q : What should I tell Sharife about
Emre ?
A : To get more information, choose this sequence. From top
to bottom I order the conversation option as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.
The sequence is :3,3,1,1,3,2,1,1,2,1. After this you'll be entering
the virtual reality world : the world of KLIO (KLIO is a virtual
reality system not Emre's girlfriend ...).
Q : How to solve the chess problem
on the table ?
A : The answer lies in a letter on the sofa, just next to
it. Read the instruction and put all the gems to build this
formation. The result is a silinder with star button and a reply
letter from Sulayman. They're both located on the sofa where
you found the first letter.
Q : What should I do with the missing
parts on one corner of this room ?
A : Exit the system and ask Sharife about the missing parts.
Choose this option for more information : 2,2 (you should show
the scanner again to the girl after this),3,2,2,1,1. Now you
have to collect several pictures from different sites to complete
KLIO (Topkapi Palace throne room simulation).
The Missing Parts of Topkapi Palace
Simulation
Q : How to find the missing parts ? The
Topkapi Palace is closed.
A : You'll find one in Aya Sofya (Mehmet know something about
it) and the other part is in Sulaymaniye Mosque. You know that
Emre interests in Ottoman dynasty.
Q : How to enter the rug shop ? Mehmet
locked it.
A : Use the key to open the shop. On the table, pick up the
scissors and the pencil.
Q : What should I find here ?
A : Move the tapestry to your left. Underneath it, you could
find a blue bag. Examine the bag. You'll find an artifact (a
ring), a letter from Emre, a notebook and a book about Aya Sofya.
Read this book to reveal Aya Sofya location. Use the pencil
on the table with the notebook. This will reveal the name Nargile
(it's a bar).
Q : What should I do in Nargile bar
?
A : At this point you could only show the servant the killer's
picture. He recognize him as Carlo. Don't go down yet, you'll
get killed if you do that. There's plenty of time to that later
on.
Q : Where are those missing parts
?
A : Look at several pictures below. In each picture, there's
a special spot that you can click on. Click on those spots and
you could scan the picture with your scanner. The left screen
is taken from the Aya Sofya library (it's on the back side of
the building, on the first floor). The right screen is taken
from the mosque (it's on the far end corner of the main room,
to the left of the main entrance). Note : I simulate those hotspots
with this picture. See if you could find the right spot.

| Aya Sofya |
Sulaymaniye Mosque |
Inside the mosque you could talk to
the young lad about Emre. Choose whatever option you want. In
Aya Sophia, you'll meet 2 interesting person : Hillary Pebble
(an archaeologist) and Nurray Uchan (Emre's friend). They both
know something about Emre. Show his picture to Nurray to begin
a conversation.

Topkapi Simulation
Q : What should I do with the parts after
I got them ?
A : Go back to the Istanbul university and show the scanner
to Sharife. Then pick up the VR goggle on the desk. Put the missing
parts on their rightful places. The part from Aya Sofya is on
the top side and the one from the mosque is on the bottom side.
Q : How to solve the clock puzzle
in the Imperial Library ?
A : Insert the cylinder with the star button in the empty
slot to the bottom right of the clock. Then use this sequence
to open the secret compartment. Move the clock hand into 12.00
position then push the sun button (it represents the lunch time).
Move the clock hand into 6.30 position then push the moon button
(it represents the diner time). Finally, move the clock hand
to 15.45 position then push the star button (it represents the
tea time). The clock will be opened. Take the gold key inside
and the cup just beside the clock.
Q : How to operate the Whispering
Fountain ?
A : First, operate the master faucet at the Absolution Fountain
inside the Imperial Library. Then go to the Private Oasis and
to the Whispering Fountain. Turn off the water. Put the cup
on the holder then turn on the water again. It will open a secret
passage beside it.
Q : Where is the Sulaymaniye Treasury
?
A : It's well hidden inside the passage. Look at the compass
at bottom right corner to guide you. Follow this route to reach
it : West, North, West, North, West, South, West, North.
Q : How to open this jewelry box ?
A : Use the golden key on the lock. Open it and you'll find
....... the famous red ruby of Sultan Sulayman.
Q : What should I do now ?

THE SMUGGLER
CONSPIRACY
Main Goals :Track down the Smuggler
and solve the conspiracy |
|
Q : Where could I find a proof to
track down this smuggler ?
A : First, talk to Jeremy Carpenter, the antiquette dealer,
in Book Bazaar. He'll tell you about the contract of an important
construction company on all of the digging sites. Ask the curator
in the archaelogical museum about this company. She told you
about one name: Gordion Construction. This sounds more interesting.
Gordion Construction
Q : What is the passcard number to open
the door ?
A : Look around the street. Hmmm.... what a coinsidence that
this construction office is located just at the back side of Nargile
Bar. Maybe they know something. Go there and look inside. Remember
the notebook you've found inside Mehmet rug store. This is the
right time to check what is the writing again. Notice the connection
between today and lemon. There is a lemon sitting on the counter.
Examine its color. Now look at the number on the board, just next
to it. Look only at the green color number (the color of the lemon).
That is your passcard number (7049).
Q : What should I find here ?
A : There are important papers inside the ledger on the desk.
Take it out and remember, DO IT QUICKLY. When you're outside
the office again, look at the paper, notice Eskander signature.
Hmmm.... what he's doing with this contract.
Q : Where could I find Eskander ?
A : Find him at the Hotel De Lordres. Show him the paper.
He's hiding something. He accused Sharife on Emre's death. Go
back to Archaelogical museum and notice that the police is there
now. No, don't go in yet. They'll arrest you no matter what
you said. Avoid them for a while.
Q : Where could I find Sharife ?
A : Eskander told you that you might find her at the tower.
Go there and show her the paper. She's innocent. That rotten
Eskander. Go with her to the university and enter Aya Sofya
Simulation to get more proof.
Aya Sofya Simulation
Q : What should I do here ?
A : Collect several items first. They are helmet (on the bench
by the entrance), vase (to the left inside the main chamber),
chalice and orb (on the altar, in the apse), divider (on the second
floor, just by the stair), and the vase of rose (on the ramp on
the second floor).
Q : What should I do with those items
?
A : First, put the chalice, helmet, and divider (must be
in the right order) on their place on the Nave Omphalos near
the Apse. Then go to the second level and put the vase on the
Empress omphalos. Return again to the Nave omphalos and put
the Orb. Then take the diadem.
Q : Where should I go, I'm trapped
here ?
A : Escape through the drain into the Hard Drive simulation.
Hard Drive Simulation
Q : How can I transfer the proof to Sharife
?
A : Go to the central controller of the harddrive. Follow this
route: enter the path, southwest, northeast, northwest, southwest,
southeast, and northeast. Click on the panel. Click on Knot, click
on Transaction, take the copy of the transaction to the Hub (that's
the pipe on the right), click on the computer lab, and finally
click on the central hub again. Watch the ending sequence.
Author's Final Words : Eskander is
behind the smuggler operations. The police captured the guy
while doing his gala speech in front of hundreds of audiences.
Although this game is not as sophisticated as Black Dahlia or
Overseer, the story is quite intriguing and all of the historical
stories are quite interesting. You could learn a lot about the
historical era in Europe.
