Not much of a walkthrough, but a good start. Started lists and everything, still needs a lot of work. ************************************************************************** Part 2 FAQ Why did you decide to make this IAQ? I was bored and wanted something to do. How did you decide on the plot of Crystal Crest? I just mixed up the starts, middles, and endings to some games, and I got the plot. Why did you make-up Gameshark codes? Because it makes the IAQ seem more real. How did you know where to go? I didn't really the first time I played the game, I played through it once, and then wrote (though playing the first time I was using a trail and error process). ************************************************************************** Part 3 Walkthrough You start out in a desert in the northern part of the Wind Region. Your main character, Timmy (your character's default name) will be walking through the desert after being chased out of his own home when in a fight with his mother. He reflects on what happened... Timmy knocked over a chair shattering his mothers' favorite vase into shards not to mention several other valuables including paintings and pottery. He attempted to glue the vase together; he ended up gluing it together but dropping it right after it dried. His mother walked into the house right then and saw the shards of the vase, parts of ripped paintings, and other assorted pottery in shards scattered across the floor and chased him out of the house. You gain control of Timmy. Walk up until you see an oasis you can make out a face in. Timmy is very thirsty and jumps right in. Big mistake! It's a mirage. Timmy scolds himself and you regain control. Walk up for awhile and Timmy will trip. He found a piece of the fabled Crystal Crest! He remembers his fifth grade teacher talking about the Crystal Crest having unforeseen power. She said, "In the wrong hands it is an item of mass destruction. In the hands of a just person it is the key to defeating all evil." Timmy talks to himself for a while and then you regain control. Now run (if you don't know how to run see instruction booklet) to the town. To get to the town go back to the oasis that looks like it has a face in it, go left about ten squares, and walk south until you see two oases linked together. Go into the one on the right hand side of your character (go into the left one). The town is called Wallow. Go talk to the elder in the big building at the bottom of the town. Timmy will walk into the elders' room and immediately show the elder the shard of the Crystal Crest. The elder will go into a long talk about how the Crystal Crest is formed, and how it was made. Then he makes an astonishing remark. He says Timmy's hand shows the piece of the Crystal Crest he has found and he is a legendary hero. "There are four who bear this mark on their hands now and will seek the 40 pieces of the Crystal Crest now," says the elder. Timmy drops his mouth open and asks if the elder is sure that there are 40 pieces of the Crystal Crest scattered around the world. The elder bows his head, and Timmy leaves. Now you can save and fight if you like on the world map, you can also shop in the various shops around and get items, weapons, etc (don't forget to loot the houses). Get up to about level 5 before entering the town on the right. Before you go into the second oasis buy at least one leather armor and a dagger. If you want to you can get up to level 7 to get Cure and go into the oasis. The name of the town here is Mallow. It was a fairly high tech town, but now it's set ablaze. Timmy says the town looks really bad. Walk one square south and Timmy will be splattered with purple blood. Mallow is at war. Go around looting what is left in the houses. You will find a dagger in the southeast part of town. Now go to the southwest part of town. Timmy will walk over and see an undamaged house. He knows only two things could do this. Magic, or... the Crystal Crest! Timmy then enters the house and you regain control. First go in the upper east room to find a leather helm. Go back into the main room and go up the stairs. Timmy will then see a man with the Crystal Crest on his hand and a man with a smoky Crystal Crest on his hand. Timmy realizes this man is fighting for the darkside. You regain control. Talk to the man with the Crystal Crest on his hand. He says his name is Bow, and that he is an axeman. Now go talk to the man with the smoky Crystal Crest on his hand. He is Durran and he will fight you. Durran: HP: 300 MP: 20 Gold: 600 EXP: 100 He will constantly use his sword on you, and sometimes he uses his Fire magic on you. You will win after about 16 hits at level 5, and in about 10 at level 7. Note: You probably won't need to cure in this battle. When you beat him he fades away, and Bow joins you after a long talk. When you go outside the town sinks into the ground, save your game now. Go back to Wallow and talk to the chief. He will give you an Aluminum Sword because you defeated Durran. He goes into a really long talk about the Crystal Crest, and then gives Timmy a shard. He talks a bit more and then lets you go. Make your way up to level 9, and then you can go to the Region of Light to the west. The new enemies are pretty easy. When you reach the Region of Light it will pop up a pop up message that says, "Region of Light". Immediately go south 10 squares, east 5, and south 3. You will be in the Castle of White. Go to the armor shop and buy the Aluminum Armor & Helm. Go to the Inn, and stay for a night to charge up, and then go castle. Timmy will then walk into the throne room (seriously the Throne room). The king will be in there in a stall. Talk to the stall with feet in it. The king will come out and go to the real throne room. Timmy will be in a talk with him for some time. After your talk ends the king will reveal himself to be on the darkside, and he will fight you. King: HP: 700 MP: 100 Gold: 650 EXP: 198 When the battle is over the king will teleport in front of Timmy and knock him over. The king will laugh and get hit with a thrown axe. It's Bow! Timmy and Bow converse for a while, then the king gets up and attacks again. King (Fight 2): HP: 1200 MP: 300 Gold: 650 EXP: 178 I think this fight is way too easy. The first hit Bow lands does 1100 damage, so you can kill him fairly easily. Timmy and Bow talk some more and Bow joins. Rob him of his equipment he'll be leaving soon. Go to the Inn and rest there Bow says he will come back later at night and not to worry. The next morning Timmy wakes up and Bow is there with all his equipment. Now go find the real king, he is in the castle basement. When you set him free he will thank Timmy by giving him a piece of the Crystal Crest. Go look at the fifty kegs of beer. The twenty-fifth keg will have a shard of the Crystal Crest in it, take it and leave. Go to the weapon shop. They have a new sword. Some guy left it there and the people at the weapon shop give it to you. Don't bother to equip it, just leave. The man will come back to get his sword and you get in a fight. (Not much of a) Boss: HP: 1150 MP: 400 Gold: 70 EXP: 200 His defense is really bad; it's somewhere between 2 and 3. Once the fight ends he reveals he is of the lightside and has the Crystal Crest oh his hand. You can only do one thing. Your choices are to go to the Inn, or use an herb on him and hope he lives. Use the herb, I tried to get him to the Inn and he didn't make it. After you use the herb. He will talk to you and tell you his name is Scy, and that he is a bowman. Go outside and save. Get everyone around level 17 before attempting to go to the high-tech Kingdom Forgatza. When everyone reaches level 17 they should have these spells. Timmy: Cure, Fire, Ice, and Lightning. Bow: Fry, Cure 2, Stop, and Lightning. Scy: Power Blast. Go north to Forgatza (and I mean straight up from Wallow). When you get there Timmy will marvel at the beauty of how high-tech everything is. He will walk into the weapon shop and see a Beast Cutter! Buy it, and equip it. Go check the armor shop. The have a set of Triple Reinforced Aluminum Armor. Go outside, save, and prepare for what's coming next. Go into Forgatza. It's a parade! Go to the armor shop and they say they will have new armor soon. Now go outside. The parade is over but it only lasted for about 15 minutes. Timmy realizes something has gone wrong. Timmy walks to the bottom of town. He sees a man with a smoky Crystal Crest on his arm, they talk for a while, he reveals his name is Juno, and then fights you. Juno: HP: 7000 MP: 670 Gold: 1000 EXP: 800 This fight is a long one, be ready to cure. He has a really cool spell called PsyShock. It's the best electric attack. Use Stop on him then keep beating on him until you need to cure. The battle should be over in no time. Once you are out of the battle Juno will say you have potential then heal himself, and run away! Timmy will call him a chicken. Then you regain control. Now go to the Inn, at night Bow is kidnapped! Timmy will wake up and see Bow is gone, he'll se a note that says "We've taken yer' fiend to the town called Walowe." This means they took Bow to Wallow, and that they can't spell. Go to Wallow. It's in shambles! One of Juno's helpers must've taken Bow! Timmy runs to the only house that's not destroyed. In there he sees Bow's head in a guillotine! Timmy rushes over and gets in a fight with Juno again. Juno: HP: 7790 MP: 895 Gold: 345 EXP: 987 Despite his HP Juno is a real weakling. He doesn't have armor on! You win in a few turns (he doesn't use magic at all). Before Juno dies he says, "You will be a tough one to defeat for anyone, except the boss". Juno's body disintegrates and Timmy, Bow, and Scy all walk to Forgatza and into the armor shop. The new armor is in. It's Iron Armor! Buy it leave the town and save. Now go to the weapon shop. They got a new sword; it's called a RoBuster. The RoBuster can cut metal very easily. Go east to the next town called Titanium. Go talk to the village elder. He will say Titanium got its name because of the metal monsters outside the town, and then he will talk about the Crystal Crest and give Timmy a shard of it. Timmy says, "Wow I have 4 pieces of the Crystal Crest". Go outside and save. Now test your new RoBuster, isn't it great? After you are at level 20 or so go back in Titanium. Go to the elder's house, and Timmy will hear the elder say he is going to kill everyone in the town. Timmy then rushes up to the elder and says, "No way, I won't let you kill everyone. Guess what you get in a fight. Elder: HP: 8000 MP: 900 Gold: 2090 EXP: 2000 When you win the battle you will get a shard of the Crystal Crest. Then the elder says that Timmy could be a commander on the enemy side if Timmy was on the darkside, and that he is on the lightside too. He was training Timmy so he could defeat the enemy king, the Dragon Lord. Go north to the next town. It is called Randon. Go in and buy a new sword. It's called a Microchip Sword. Buy one for Timmy then buy a Hermit Axe for Bow and buy a Hunting Bow. Then go in the armor shop and buy a set of Steel Armor for everyone. Go outside and save. Now go into the town again and go to the Inn. No one is there! Go behind the counter, and Timmy will be arrested! The screen will blank out and then you see Timmy in a jail cell alone. Timmy notices the bars are rusty so he whacks the bars with his sword. Walk to the jail cell furthest to the right. You will see a man. He says he will help you if you get him out of the jail alive. Go up the stairs on the right side of the room. The next room holds the first real puzzle of the game. Timmy sees three sets of stairs go in the left one. Then Timmy sees three more sets of stairs go up the middle set. Then Timmy sees two sets of stairs. Go up the left stairs, Timmy sees two men join together! Timmy then sees the smoky Crystal Crest on the man's hand. Timmy will then run up and ask what he did. He will say he devoured the mental and physical power of the man. Then he realizes Timmy isn't on his side so he fights Timmy. Man: HP: 10000 MP: 1290 Gold: 6000 EXP: 3000 The man uses magic like PsyShock and Fry on Timmy, Bow, and Scy. Just whack him until he dies, but you will have to heal once or twice. At the end of the battle Timmy gets yet another shard of the Crystal Crest. Timmy will be teleported to a town called Tigara. Go into the weapon shop and get a Titanium Sword for Timmy, an Iron Axe for Bow, and an Aluminum Bow for Scy. Then go to the armor shop and buy three pairs of Titanium Armor and one Titanium Shield (for Timmy), equip them, go outside, and save. Now go inside Tigara and go to the huge mansion. Timmy will see a convention of evil spirits. Then Timmy does something really stupid. He rushes up to one and challenges it to a fight! Too bad you don't get to fight it because I would've won, but Timmy loses and is taken to the science lab. Timmy is the main topic of this talk. The spirits then turn human and they turn out to be smoky Crystal Crest bearers. Timmy hears them talking about them examining his blood, and his physical and mental status. One of them is even the man Timmy fought earlier and his name is Rings. Then Rings says, "I've fought him you best restrain him, and don't forget... He is a Crystal Crest bearer". Timmy wakes up in a nice scene they are just about to cut him open. Timmy screams. All of a sudden (I knew this would happen) a man jumps in front of Timmy and slays the two men. He unlocks Timmy and tells him, "Run as fast as you can ... Don't worry about me. And don't forget your friends". Bow and Scy jump down from the roof and Timmy, Bow, and Scy run out of the building together. Then Timmy tells Bow and Scy about the man. Scy tells Timmy the man he described was a man of race of ogres. His hate and height of an ogre disappeared. He is very powerful and Scy wonders why this man helped Timmy. Then Bow realizes that they have spent a lot of time just talking and not enough time walking. So Timmy, Bow, and Scy go off to the next town. There are new enemies and they are hard without the new equipment. Timmy says he remembers this place from when he was a child, but Bow says it's not possible because this is a town of HEROS. Timmy then sees a plaque for the most honorable heroes in the world on it. And Timmy recognizes one of the names... His mothers! Timmy hopped around town with joy because his mother was a hero and he must have a hero's blood! So it may be true that Timmy was destined to be the hero that saves the world. You spend the night at the Inn and you are at a... Save Point! Now all you really need to do is buy the Spiked Sword for Timmy, the See- Through Bow for Scy, at the Weapon Shop of course (it's a hard one to find, go to the center of town, go north and east, then go to the statue and go north). Now go to the Armor Shop (go to the center of town and left). Buy a Drauskdraug Mail for Timmy and a pair of Carapace Armor for Bow. Equip them and save at the Inn (not outside). Now go to the Item Shop, there's a robbery going on! And it's just in time for a ... Boss! Robber: HP: 11000 MP: 120 Gold: 9000 EXP: 12000 Wow! This Robber sure is good, too good for a Robber I think. Even though his stats are high you will win fast using PsyShock and Cure. Then he reveals that he is really not a robber (I was right). He is really Brian the skilled mage. He says his brother is the man who saved Timmy's life, and his brother's name is Brace. Now Brain joins your team, go to the Inn sleep and save for what's coming next. Brain tells you that he is good at teleporting to places, so he teleports Timmy, Bow, and Scy to a place called Rainbow Town. Timmy just loves how colorful everything is, so he looks around for a long time saying "Hey that looks good!" after a while Timmy sees a house that's not so good looking in fact it's the worst looking house in the whole town. Timmy decides to go in and see why the house isn't colorful. Timmy then goes in and talks to the man of the house and he says he is colorblind and he doesn't care what his house looks like. Timmy then says the house would look more up to date if he painted it rainbow colored. So the man will eventually give in and paint the house. But something very bad happens after the man paints his house... All the other houses become old and gray just like the mans. Timmy decides to get to the bottom of the mystery. Look in all the houses because there is a really good item in one of the houses, a Sky Plume, I'm not really sure which house it's in, but it's good. Now go to the man with the newly painted house and talk to him, he will say he knows that the rest of the town has turned gray... And that he knows why. He says one of the bearers of the smoky Crystal Crest is doing this and that one is a woman. Her name is Jade, the man says " Her hair as fair as shimmering moon beams on dark water, eyes as blue as the sky, and her body is as thin as a rose vine from a beautiful patch of roses" he also tells you she is very dangerous and to not risk getting near her. Timmy goes anyway. Go directly south of town, you will reach a little cottage. It looks little but inside it's really big for some reason. Look at this place, just look at this place! It's super colorful! The man was really right someone really had stolen the color of Rainbow Town! After you are done looking you might want to get the Broken Special, so you can get the weapon the Special later. Now go to the second room on the left of the stairs. Brian will then look around. He will find the "Book to become a Master Mage" then Brian will say, "This is how I can become a Master of my class! I've been waiting all my life for this! Thank you! Thank you! Thank y..." Just then a huge thundercloud appears, and swallows Brian! Timmy then yells at the cloud and the cloud disappears! Timmy cries, gets up, gathers his wits, and swears revenge on the cloud. Now there are new enemies on the overworld too! Go outside and go to Rainbow Town. The color back, but Timmy is still upset about losing Brain to that cloud so he leaves for awhile. Go to the Inn sleep and save. You're just going to love what happens next! After you sleep the game focuses on Timmy, he's sleeping. You will get to see how corny Timmy's' dreams are (joy)." I finally awoke, after millions of years! It was a brisk autumn night, in the Tomb of Evil. It was lit with several dozen burning torches. I was on a slab of brittle slate. It cracked and I fell on the cold, hard, ground. Then I turned to see an image, an image too far away to make out; it came close enough to see what it was. I shrieked". Timmy awakens. "Dang, just when it was gettin good!". Timmy then realizes he is out on the streets of Rainbow Town at night. He says he must find the others, and goes into the Inn. Someone was waiting for him it was... A girl!? Timmy talks to her and she talks to Timmy. She reveals her name is Siren. After a while of talking Siren puts Timmy's arms behind his back and ties them together. Siren says " Sorry Timmy you should've paid more attention to my arm... I'm a smoky Crystal Crest bearer". Siren teleports Timmy and herself somewhere after leaving a note on his pillow. The next morning Scy finds the note on his pillow and Bow tells him not to worry, but Scy says Timmy is his encouragement and needs him to go on. Bow just says Timmy can still be his encouragement... You're encouragement to get him back. Go to the Armor Shop and buy the Magnesium Armor for Bow and Scy. Now you get to level up to 35 for the... er...um...Boss fight. Bow should learn Heal All and Scy should learn Omega Singe, and it's tough. Once you are level 35 save and sleep at the Inn of Rainbow Town, and make a strategy for the hard upcoming battle. Leave Rainbow Town. Now go northeast until you reach a castle, don't go in it's a trap. Go south and you'll find... Timmy?! Nope, it's Siren and she says, "Your friend Timmy is a real dope". Scy says " Timmy was a Crystal Crest bearer, how could he have been killed?!". Siren says, " He can't be killed easily, it doesn't mean he can't be killed. People aren't invincible!" This makes Bow and Scy mad because they think she meant she killed Timmy, and because of this you get to fight her. Siren: HP:??? MP:??? Gold:??? Exp.:??? Siren is definitely supposed to kill you because, look at those spells! Flare, Holy 1, and Tsunami! How are you supposed to beat that, using Gameshark I suppose, but I don't cheat. Well anyway after the fight Siren says " I know you from somewhere before, your Scy and Bow, and you know me I'm..." Bow and Scy think Siren went off the deep end. Then Siren says, " I'm... Brian!". Brian then sheds his disguise and says " Oh yes, Timmy". Brian teleports out, and back in with Timmy. Scy and Bow stare at each other and Bow faints. Timmy says " I'm fine, but I don't think Bow is...". Everyone laughs and they go to the Inn sleep and save... Now go far to the east, you will be in the new area, The Region of Hope (finally). After you enter the region, go northeast until you find a Town, go in. The town is called Scissors (pretty lame huh), now go around talking to people, they will tell you about the dreaded Scissors Lizard?! Why are they afraid for this lizard you ask? Well it cuts people in half (wow... aren't scissors supposed to cut things), so whenever they see the lizard they run for cover. Timmy says there all a bunch of whimpering fools (which they are, I mean there afraid of a lizard). So Timmy says his companions, and he will fight, and kill the lizard. Now go the Inn rest, and save (although the battle sounds easy, it's really not). Now train to about level 40 for the fight with the Scissors Lizard (once you get in the fight you will know why you should train. Now go south to Scissors Cave. Look at your surroundings, don't you like how dark and dank this place is? Now go north until you bump into a wall, bump into it three more times, a secret door will open (I don't know how you were supposed to figure that out, I had to call the hint line). Now get the treasure to your right and walk up the stairs. You are now in the Scissors Lizards' nest. Timmy then sees a Scissors Lizard scampering about; he picks it up and shows it to his companions. Timmy says, " This is a Scissors Lizard, those people really are wimps". The rest of the party nods. Just then the party hears a grunt. Then out of no where a Scissors Lizard comes, and... and... It's huge! Timmy then gets in a fight with it. Scissors Lizard: HP: 15000 MP: 0 Gold: 19000 EXP: 12000 Once you kill the Lizard, pat yourself on the back you've completed half of the game! You say you've played so long, and that I'm wrong, well I'm, not I've played this game once through already without making a walkthrough, and now I'm playing it making one. So now go back to town, go to the Inn and save. Now travel southeast to a castle. It's the Castle of Heroes. Timmy, Bow, Scy, and Brian marvel at the beauty of the entire castle, then they see the pictures of the new heroes, them! It's a second sign that tells them they are actually the fabled warriors. But Brian doesn't see his picture and he gets so miserable he then runs away and doesn't come back, its time to save outside now. Timmy tries to find Brian, but can't. Timmy felt strange, he had, well, mixed feelings, as it says in the game, but I think it was because Brian was sort of a brother Timmy never had. Timmy ran all over where they had been, but there was no hope it seemed to Timmy, but then he remembered that on night with Brian... They had snack out late and had a long talk, and Brian said, " I wish I could go home." then Timmy said, " Where is it?" Brian sighed, " You don't remember do you?" "What?" questioned Timmy "What do you mean do I remember, do I remember what?" "Oh, never mind!" "Never mind what, I want to know." questioned Timmy (no doubt he was mad here). "Shut up Timmy, leave me alone" "But Brian..." Then the cut scene ends. Go save at the inn and stop your playing for at least two seconds. Timmy just then realized who Brain could be, his brother. After a long drawn out conversation with Bow and Scy you leave. Now the first sub-quest in the game appears (Fun, fun!) if you want to do it please refer the sub-quest section. After doing the sub quest continue by exiting the Castle of Heroes and train to about level 43 and return to the Castle of Heroes, it will be raided by a being with mystifying power. Your party will be split after another long drawn out scene. Now you can sit back and watch the kind of cruddy full motion video (not bad for game boy though). You basically see tremendously strong magic cast by the being, and your party is split-up you wake up only to find yourself in a whole new world (or so you think). Walk into the town right next to you. It is called Rivervale. Go straight to the inn and save. After saving go around and talk to everyone in town, they have valuable information though I will tell you the information from the invisible man since it is hard to locate him. He says, " Beware, cursed objects are found in this wasteland, be careful before equipping or using these items." Then he fades away or so the game says I don't believe it because he was invisible in the first place he probably just walked away or something. After that go outside and fight some of the new and improved enemies like dark slime, evil mirror, mini demon, black knight, demon smith, etc (did you notice the pattern here). Also beware of cursed or annoying items in general like raw short swords, raw long swords, raw axes, raw battleaxes, raw bows, curse cream, evil dust, bone chips, black armor, black sword, glass shards, and demon skulls. Remember there are very few holy items for sale or to be found here, so don't waste them. I also have to mention that in this "world" You have to opportunity to take the items you get after battle, which can be very handy especially when you are fighting demon smiths because they drop items you can't drop. The most common things they drop are Raw Short Swords 1,2 so be ready not to except them, but always get Raw Long Swords because they are powerful, but it is a .1 in a thousand chance or something insane like that. After fighting your pleasure of enemies you can go back to the town inn, save, and get ready for your next adventure (it's a long one). To be continued... ************************************************************************** Part 4 Sub-Quest Guide What is a sub quest? A sub quest is generally not required to finish the game, though some are vital to completing the game. Sub quests usually give equipment that is better than what you can purchase in town or find, or sometimes they will just give you much more gold than you get from any monsters at the point in the game when the quest becomes available. Even then you might just get items for later quests or items for particular skills used in the game. Sub-Quest List Sub Quest 1 - Mind your mining! Items gained on completion - 100 gold, Crystal Crest shard, 20 mining exp (not needed for a while if you do the quest when you first can), and a bronze hammer. All you need to do it go northwest to the Braner Mines talk to the goblin and answer yes every time, he will tell you to get a pickaxe. Just so you know there are new monsters called Orc Miners. He just happens to have an extra that he could sell to you for 100 gold (pay it, you get worse prices in town). You have to end up mining and you have to get two tin ores and two copper ores. Once you have them talk to the goblin and he will give you your reward because he can now make himself a long sword and a new hammer, the end (How pathetic). To be continued... ************************************************************************** Part 5 Instruction Booklet Introduction Long ago, the Crystal Crest was forged by a master mage and a dazzling weaponsmith, one night in the Region of Terror. It was meant to be the most powerful weapon the darkside had ever witnessed, but the forger was of the lightside and the Crystal Crest was the most powerful weapon in the world for anyone who might locate it. The War of Runes was the war the Crystal Crest was made in. The Crystal Crest was shattered in the War of Runes... Now young Timmy is chased out of his own home only to find a shard of the Crystal Crest...
