Hello all,

Does anyone know of a good walkthrough to Dawn of Sorrow? - stuck on the first (how pitiful) level.

stuck again! Never gonna get through this game!

Reached this large mirror after having killed the first boss and reached the huge sword using the fly armour spell. Cant go any further but I know the mirror is involved.

Dg, get any ranged weapon and you can outlast him easily.

Moosebiscuit - I have no idea where you are stuck ;-p

unziphero - the mirror has nothing to do with it.

He uses whatever you hit him with, so just hit him with a crap soul like skeleton and that�s what he�ll attack you with. Then beat his pitiful ass down.

Edit: For some reason I�m skipping letters left and right these past few days...

so the mirror has no unique purpose apart from a graphical touch.

One of the mirrors has a purpose, but not until much later in the game. Where abouts are you stuck, there are a few mirrors dotted about in the game?

Yeah bang on - whole line of zombies, after which there is an underground room. When you come back up and go to the next screen you are faced with a huge mirror a barrier where there lies a jewel/heart of sorts to collect.

First of all, it's 'Professor'. It's just up the page, look. There's a good lad.

Secondly, if you only just beat the first boss, you do not have 4 magic seals. If you DO have 4 magic seals, you need to tell me the last boss you defeated.

However, I really don't see how you can be stuck having just beaten the first boss. You just... keep going.

Quick question for the Prof and/or Hy, you might want to stop reading if you've not finished it.

So, the ending. Is that it? It doesn't even reach the heights of the depth that was the Halo 2 ending. I do only have 79 point something percent completion, so I may be missing something, but I was just gearing myself up for the final fifth of the game, and it just stops!

Cracking game, but I'm a bit disappointed now. That fire fella was probably the easiest boss in the whole game too...

There are two bad endings and one good ending. If you get the lame ending after beating Dario the second time, you haven't been paying enough attention to the background, hehe.

Ah, the yeti thing and the flying man creature thing etc. Hmm, maybe I'll have another crack at it then.

To be fair to you singularity, you have just walked into one the the most bizarre gaming pitfalls I have ever come across.

It's best you don't regard what you got as an ending. That's how I dealt with the fact. Why do they roll the credits there at all? It's just. Plain. Odd.

Anyway, Hy's initial reply already tells you what to do.

This is the DS one right?

Anyway, I'm a bit stuck for where to go. I just got the puppet orb thingy (throw it, switch places), but I can't find the room where I need to go through! There is one place, but that just makes a shortcut. Argh. Help please :[

Aye... that really was the weirdest ending I came across. I beat Dario or whatever and then END. What?! Buhhh?!

Something to do with mirrors I'm guessing? Better have another look then.

Pissing me off now this game.

I need to obtain an orb from one monster. It's this flying goblin thing that lays fire down. I've found a room with just one of these guys in. So I kill it in one swipe and then leave and re-enter and kill it again... and again... and again. No fucking orb. It's just bent and I've pretty much given up on getting a better ending now.

It's slipped from an 8/10 to a 7/10 now with too many annoying little frustrating moments.
