1320.0. "Barbarian" by DSSDEV::COSTELLO () Mon Apr 11 1988 12:50


   I didn't see a note about this so I figured I'd start one.
Just recently, I purched the game Barbarian. I was wondering
If anyone else out there had it also and if there is anyone
who can tell me how to get past the big metal dude that has
the spike on his head, so I can get the bow.


					Thanks,
					    Bill.

	I had the ST version. Do not bother with that guy. Keep on going. It is
impossible to get it from him.

1320.2Me too!SHALE::DAVISThat's not a BUG, it's a FEATURE!Tue Apr 12 1988 22:274
Glad to hear that metal guy is giving someone else trouble.  I can't get past
him either!  I want that bow!!  I think I need it to kill the dragon (yes, no,
maybe?)  Of course, there is another bow...

    	Leave the metal guy alone. I have never seen or heard of anyone
    getting past him. Later in the game there is another bow that you
    can get. I have seen the dragon killed but have not seen anyone
    win the game ( but I do know how ).

1320.4Now what?VTHRAX::KIPExplain the Universe and give 3 examples.Sat Jun 04 1988 15:258
    I seem to be hitting a dead end on this game.  I get all the way
    down to the column structures, fight past the guys in the purple
    robes, and finally get to a real nasty looking dude in a black cape
    who keeps hurling fireballs at me.  I can't seem to kill this guy,
    but I've gotten past him, and there doesn't seem to be anything
    behind except a cliff to fall off of.  Beyond this, there doesn't
    seem to be any more new places to go.  Is killing this guy crucial
    to winning?  (I'd like to, his laughing drives me crazy!)
1320.5MY SON IS STUCK AT THE SAME POINT!NEWVAX::FILERMon Jun 06 1988 10:589
    	ref.-1
    	My son is having the same problem you are. There was number
    that you can type in at the beginning of the progran that makes
    you invinsable. This makes it so nothing can kill you but we still
    couldn't find out how to kill this guy or were you could go after
    you did kill him. 
    	I an very poor at this game, so I have never gotten that far
    myself but my son said there are two bows. One is very hard to get
    to. Maybe that bow will have some affect on this sob.
1320.6A little help with killingCLOVAX::HERSHBERGERMon Jun 06 1988 15:594
        Nothing you have can kill him.   
    Spoiler follows
    
    You can turn something he has against him with the right item.    
1320.7The evil dudeVTHRAX::KIPNo Dukes.Thu Jul 14 1988 17:412
    Hmmm, I tried this and now he's taking his own medicine, but nothing's
    changed, he still keeps hurling the fireballs.  Is this guy invincible?
