Places where you can get stuck
Posted: July 23rd, 2017, 11:33 am
I was searching for places in PoP1 DOS where you *need* Ctrl+A, i.e. you can't finish the level, and can't die either.
Just to clarify, this does not really have any practical value. It's only for amusement.
I looked only at the original levels, and without using cheats.
Otherwise it would be too easy to press Shift+W and float onto the bottom of a chasm (without spikes) and then get stuck.
This is what I found:
Level 2: This chasm is shallow enough so that the Prince won't die if you climb down (he loses only one HP), but deep enough so that you can't climb out.
Level 9: Getting stuck in this room is also mentioned in the FAQ: https://www.popot.org/walkthroughs/docu ... Q_v1_6.txt

The switch opens the gate on the left, and the switch in the gate opens the gate on the right.
If the gate on the left closes before you get out, press CTRL+A.
You're officially stuck.
