    Ok, just *how* do I kill the mimic?

    I read on another forum that I need to gather 4-5 piles of the gems that are lying scattered around the mimic's nest and leave them in a trail to the fire conductor. But I've been round the whole nest a couple dozen times and only found a single pile of gems. Where are the others hiding? Can anyone help?

    Better still, can anyone give me a cheat code that will get me past this part of the game because it's got to be the most irritating puzzle I've ever come across.

    That puzzle really annoyed me.

    There are gem-throwers in each corner, which throw gems randomly about the map, which then get eaten by scavenger rats and the mimic.

    I don't know what the cheat codes are, I'm afraid.

    Oh dear. So I take it that if I've already killed the gem throwers - they were throwing axes at me so I slaughtered them - then I've rendered the game unfinishable?

    Chalk one down to irritating puzzles making an otherwise decent game into one long yawn.
