Erm, did you try DOSBox?

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...

[_r.u.s.s.]

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".

[jniemann42]

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!

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.

[jniemann42]

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.

First I'd like to congratulate him, afterwards ask if he plans to end the maps/solution for the 1st game.

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

Comments welcome!
It's 'despair' BTW.
