Krypteia hints This is a fairly simple game, without puzzles, but the following information is provided just in case anyone has trouble. Explore the forest and search for items. Pass monster encounters by raising a stat and choosing options that depend on that stat. You can raise your stats by equipping items and by passing monster encounters. Item locations: the dead tree, the river swamp in the south west, the forest east of the dead tree, the clearing in the south east, the tunnel alcove in the north east, the abandoned cottage in the north west. The wise men's secret is to be found in the south west, behind the village.
