brickroadbrickroad and SovanJedi play Secret of Evermore - Part 44 of 88


We're finally halfway through the LP, and it's on to the pyramid.

This area will be the hardest thing thus far, and you'll be switching between The Boy and The Dog, walking around, hitting switches and smashing enemies just to get through this place and find everything. Are you ready?

All maps by Grizzly.

Right Bank Forest


Go all the way south, then go west. Use the Revealer formula to get across the pit.

Pyramid - Outside



Just like the Mad Monks, the asp-faced Sons of Set have staves that can still do some massive damage and status ailment problems, particularly Plague. On the other hand, they're slow and can't attack from a distance, so you should be able to use them as target practice for Crush or your new Fireball spell.

The door at the bottom can only be accessed by The Dog. Keep The Boy on the switch, then switch to The Dog and have him go in. From there, have him leap across the water with the run button. The Dog is now in the switch room. The four floor switches will activate four specific doors that The Boy cannot open himself. Press Select and you'll be able to switch back to The Boy. As the Boy, climb up the stairs and move your way around. You'll find an entrance on the roof.

Lower Level Map

Make your way around, and watch out for those Bone Buzzards. If you've leveled up the Bronze Spear to at least Level 2, you'll stand a better chance against them and you'll be able to get them out of your hair much more easily.

From the fork in the road, go south. The other forks lead to Mummified Cats and items.

Once you go down the stairs, you'll find yourself with some more choices to make. You'll be near the switch room, but you won't be able to free The Dog yet. Instead, take down all the enemies, then switch to The Dog. The lower right switch on the floor should open the door to the Stone Cobras hallway. Be sure to stand on the Ankh symbols for the first two, and the right symbol for the last one. Otherwise, the Stone Cobras will come to life...and they hurt like hell, with the ability to take down a good fraction of your HP in addition to Poisoning you.
