You start off with the key to the yellow castle. Use it to open the castle and then go in and get the "arrow" looking device that's a sword. Use the sword to slay the dragons that will try to eat you. The next thing you should do is to locate the black key and open the black castle. Depending on which difficulty level you're playing, there may be a dragon in the black castle. On the way to the black castle you'll see a bridge. It looks like brackets [ ] and is colored purple. This is used to make a shortcut through the maze or other solid objects. In the black castle there'll be a magnet. You can use the magnet in case you accidently put an object into a wall or something. The glowing cup is also in the black castle and the object of winning the game is to bring it back to the yellow castle without being eaten by dragons. Hope this helps... Do you know anything about Swordquest Earthworld??? I've been trying to figure that one out and am stumped.
