game. You must give it a unique name that is not already being used. For

INVENTORY OBJECTS

⁄. Taking Inventory Objects

Sometimes when you click your cursor on an object on the screen,

you will take that object and it will appear in your inventory at the

bottom of the screen.

¤. Examining Inventory Objects

You can examine your inventory Objects more closely by clicking on that object in

inventory and making it your cursor. Click the cursor on the «eye» located at the

bottom of the game screen. This will allow you to see the inventory object in three

dimensions. You can rotate the object by clicking and holding down the right mouse

button and then moving the mouse in the direction you want the item to rotate.

‹. Manipulating Inventory Objects

In some instances, while closely examining an inventory object, you can manipulate

it by clicking on that object with your play cursor. Check each inventory item

carefully. It may conceal something important!

›. Combining Inventory Objects

Some inventory objects can be combined with others to create a new inventory

object. To do this, click on an inventory item. It will become your cursor. Now click

that item on the inventory item with which you wish to combine it. If the two items

can be combined, they will become a third item, which will now be located in your

inventory.

The world of KING'S QUEST VII is a world of exploration,

and you wouldn't want to miss anything! Look at each

new room carefully. Click on anything that causes

your cursor to highlight. Think creatively: Sometimes

there is more than one solution to a puzzle. If you feel

you are "stuck", leave the room and explore others.

You never know where you might find just what you

need. Above all, relax, let your imagination run wild,

and have fun!
