Discworld Hints

How can I get a magical talisman?

  • 1 of 11: Old heroes might know something about one.
  • 2 of 11: Try asking the old timers in the town square about the talisman, and you'll know to look for the Temple of Offler.
  • 3 of 11: Now that you know where the temple is, it should be on your overhead map. Just walk there.
  • 4 of 11: But how do I get past this monk?
  • 5 of 11: And how do I get past all these traps?
  • 6 of 11: Now that you're finally in front of the Eye, you're almost there. Unfortunately, the game isn't very responsive about what's going on here, so if you don't know the solution ahead of time, you can't make much sense out of it.
  • 7 of 11: The reason you can't just take the Eye is that it's on a mechanism that's sensing its weight.  (Indiana Jones might sense some deja vu here.)
  • 8 of 11: So you need to switch it with something of equal weight.
  • 9 of 11: The sand on the ground will help you create it.
  • 10 of 11: Don't ask why, but your money pouch is the only thing that you can put the sand in.
  • 11 of 11: So throw some sand in the pouch and switch the Eye for your pouch.
