Problem:
Help, I see Asteroids.

Hint:
Navigate through the asteroids to reach the  planet. Don't fly too close to the
asteroids. The gravitation of an asteroid will alter your course. You can shoot
the asteroids, but it's not necessary.  Keep your accelerator at full speed and
dodge the asteroids as best you can.


Problem:
Starship Canyon Battles.

Hint:
Keep a close  watch on your control panel and  your navigation instruments. You
must destroy  the starfighters that  are in front  and behind you.  You have to
kill them before they reach the end of the trench or you will die. Stay at full
speed and keep firing  at the ships in front of you.  If you pass starfighters,
slow down and  let them get just in  front of you. Otherwise, they  will attack
you from behind.

Problem:
Ship to ship dogfights.

Hint:
Listen to your  ship computer voice (with a  DAC sound card) for tips  on where
the enemy is, target locking, and when  to fire. Watch for blips on your radar.
Be sure  to save your  torpedoes for combat  against the large  ships that will
appear later  in the game.  Once you use  up your torpedoes,  they are gone for
good  and are  not replenished.  The large  ships found  later in  the game are
nearly impossible to defeat without them.

Problem:
Spanish Warrior Mazes.

Hint:
The mazes can be complex or simple.  Click on the right mouse button after each
move and note your position and direction. Watch out for Spanish warriors. Maps
of the mazes  are available. Please write or FAX  the Sierra hint department to
receive maps on  the mazes. Please check your Inca  game manual for the address
and FAX number.


Problem:
Tips on fighting Spanish warriors.

Hint:
Aim your icon  on the warrior's blasts first,  then fire at the warrior.  It is
best to hit the warriors when they turn the side of their body toward you. When
they face you, their armor protects them.

the  star inside  the golden  panel to  close it.  Move the  cursor to the left

Immediately after  the ball appears, click  on the right statue  and a red ball
will appear. The balls  will unite and form an egg. Next,  continue to click on
the left statue, producing colored balls until one appears that is NOT the same
color as  the first egg (if  you have a blue  egg, you must get  a red ball and
vice versa).  If the colored ball  is the same color  as the egg, just  let the
ball pop and click on the left statue again to produce another. Once you have a
suitable  ball, immediately  click on  the  right  statue. A  red ball  will be
generated  and another  egg will  form. After  you have  a blue  and red egg in
place, click on the  vase. You will return to your ship  and battle your way to
an asteroid base.
