Actually if your real slick you can pick your stuff up from the edge
of the screen or around corners,  And not even trigger the monsters in
the immediate vicinity.  As a matter of fact I can do this so
efficiently, I'm not even the least bit worried about dying while
playing in a private game.  I know I can easily get my stuff using
Telekinesis.

Yes.  Open chests, doors, sarcophogus, barells, gold, bookcases...etc,
etc.  I use it to shove monsters to the edges of the screens.  Think
about it guys.  This game is not very sophisticated,  cast Tk and use
it on any clickable item, creature or thing you can.   See what
happens.

It's your chance of actually hitting what your aiming at. - minus the
monsters defense.

And you wouldn't see much in the manual either.  It only lists just a
few spells, and "briefly" describes some of the basic stuff.  We are
left on our own to discover the rest.
