King's Quest: Mask of Eternity Hints
How can I leave the Dimension of Death?
1 of 9: The Boatman says you must seek the Bridge of Life.
2 of 9: The secret lies within the area behind the locked door in the northern area of the map.
3 of 9: Inside, after killing a few skeletons, you will find three sets of four switches on three of the walls, and an interesting door.
4 of 9: Open your map and play around with the switches to see what they do.
5 of 9: One set of switches opens all of the vertical portcullises blocking your path. Pull all of these.
6 of 9: In one set of switches, the switches can only be activated one at a time (i.e., when you pull one, all of the other switches reset). This set of switches controls what the remaining set of switches does. Pull the first switch on this set of switches and then pull all of the switches on the remaining set of switches. Repeat this process with each of the switches to open all of the horizontal portcullises.
7 of 9: Explore all of the rooms within the portcullises.
8 of 9: In the last one, you will find a long lever, pull it.
9 of 9: This lever opened the second gate, in the middle-northern portion of the map. This leads to the Bridge of Life.
