Erm, did you try DOSBox? :oh:

Hey there lasses and lads.
Curious question - i made a post under the second part of this trully amazing game, but I thought I'd give my try here as well.

Does anyone have a clue of where to get the Paragraph Book (Manual) for the Two Towers?

Checked everywhere.. Couldn't find it anywhere.
Any help would be appreciated - I'd love to once again play this game, but without the paragraphs.. it's rather impossible to do.
Thanks!

I played this game ages ago and there was one part that always irked me...in Lothlorien I ran into an elf who asked a question that was something like "who is the greatest enemy of all". But every answer I gave him was incorrect, I always got a reply like "that is not the answer" and I never figured it out.

Anyone else out there remember this/figure it out? Can't believe it's been 18 years since this came out...

i haven't played this game, but maybe morgoth?

It should be either Morgoth or Sauron, IIRC.

Unless the question requires lateral rather than literal logic. In which case, try "Time" or "Death".

I know it's not Morgoth...I remember trying everything that made sense in the context of LOTR, Morgoth/Melkor, Sauron, Saruman, etc...just about everyone from the Silmarillion that was even partially evil, along with more general answers (think I tried "death" but don't remember trying "time"). I'll have to try again the next time I fire this game up if I have the patience to get that far again.

Suggestions are always appreciate, and if anyone remembers the answer and what the elf gives you for answering correctly, well, it's something I haven't figured out in 18 years or found in any walkthrough, so it'd be great to put it to rest.

Years ago, when the game was released, I bought a hint book. It was pretty big, and had all maps and quests inside.... I'll have a look if I still have it, and if the answer is in there....

L8r!

Bastos

Also try Melko, Bauglir, Belegûr - those are alternate names of Morgoth.

I've checked stuff and am pretty sure the answer should be either "Morgoth" or "Morgoth Bauglir".

There is a walthrough on Gamefaqs (http://www.gamefaqs.com/computer/dos...me/921815.html), but it makes no mention of the puzzle.

Yeah, the walkthrough always bugged me and from looking endlessly on the Internet, that's the only one there was. It just seemed like it was missing quite a few things, like never finding the real Radagast, etc...and if anyone wanted to know, when you find the 5 items in Lorien that Galadriel has you look for all your party's stats are increased (I think all categories are give +2). I meant to do my own walkthrough ages ago but was just too lazy.

Finally an update! [Edit:] It should be reasonably complete now, though I am still updating it.

It's 'despair' BTW.
