Stairway to the Stars hints

29th May 2025

General hints: This game is easier than the others in the series, so you might want to hold off on the hints. It has an in-game help command that gives you a lot of guidance, especially early on, and which I think makes the game too easy – so maybe try not to use it? There is no examine command, so what you see is what you get. Also, there are no up or down direction – only the four cardinals.
