Hi Netters!

I am (again) stuck in Lands of Lore, Castle Cimeria.
heavy spoilers ahead!

Well, I have several problems:

level 1:
	- a "jammed door"
	- a "special" lock in the western chamber behind the cutting door.
	  (noticed that one can just pass the blades without harm??)
	- a VERY PERSISTENT PIT in the southern part of level 1 facing West.
	  There is clearly a room behind which can be seen just before
	  gravity takes over :-)  Tried all 16 combinations of the
	  switch row at the big hall and multiple pressings of the brick
	  pair nearby.

level 2:
	- freeing King Richard. So far I have 3 statues: the dragon,
	  the monoceros and the snake.  But since there are 4 poles near
	  Richard I suspect 4 are needed.  Guiding the light rays I have
	  to start with the snake to get the beam to the second pole. But
	  then I am lost with the other two statues ...  I guess it's in
	  level 1 behind the pit but how on earth can I get there.  Can't
	  even find a pit from l2 to fall down from right there.

level 3:
	- a bunch of minor problems which I think I have to face later -
	  the "strip room" in SW and the "sum" room in SE. the niche behind
	  the pit in S centre and the switches near the SE pit.
	  Not to mention what to expect behind the locks.


Well, its quite a lot of unsolved mysteries.  Can any kind soul please
post or mail a hint on how to proceed.  Being stuck at the last level
is like missing the end of a novel.

Thanks,
