The Quest for the Holy Grail Hints
Catch the Cow
Catch the cow is a game sort of like Lemmings. The knights are basically mindless and will walk right onto the bull's-eyes if you don't direct them right. The only thing you can make them do is to turn to their right, so as soon as you see a bull's-eye appear on the field, click on any knight headed toward the danger. Two clicks will make him double back, which may be needed as there is a splat zone around the bull's-eye which is lethal.
To save the knights, make them leave the field out of the gate in the upper left of the screen. If you just direct them to the left wall, they will turn upwards (right) all by themselves. This is very handy.
You can also beat the cow to the bulls-eye, if the bulls-eye is in the exit area you can often run off the edge before the cow (or ape or whatever) hits. The fields get trickier as the game levels get higher. Good luck!
