Noctropolis Walkthrough v1.1 (updated 11-28-94)
(Changed lines from the initial walkthrough are marked with |)

The following is a complete walkthrough for the EA/Flashpoint game,
Noctropolis. If you don't want the plot of the game to be blatantly
revealed, read no further. It primarily covers the bare essentials of the
game in order to progress and finish, so don't be afraid of trying other
things or visiting other locations as long as you save periodically.
Feel free to email rwebb@panix.com with specific questions if you don't
want a total giveaway via a walkthrough. The game is very linear, and
can be followed with the following steps at a minumum.

If you're stuck and don't want a complete spoiler, make sure you go through
a wild pixel-hunting frenzy, or maybe just a thorough re-examination of the
following screens which seemed to me to be the most tricky:
Outside the cathedral
In Shadowlair
The second fan room of the maze
In the thorny room in the dreamworld
The furnace room near Cygnus Construction late in the game

Also, don't forget to talk to the newsstand clerk or Hall of Records clerk
(who is that small shadow below the center of the viewing screen in the Hall)
about new topics or locations in order to open them up on the map or else
you'll get stuck pretty quickly. Most of the time simply talking in the
conversation thread isn't good enough--you must ask a person about a
particular topic from the conversation icons in order for new map locations
to appear. Talking with Stiletto is also very productive after some
encounters when you're totally unsuccessful.
