Might and Magic IX Hints
How do I enter Anskram Keep?
1 of 10: Have you tried the front door?
2 of 10: Unfortunately, the portcullis is lowered.
3 of 10: However, there is a weak spot in one of the walls in back.
4 of 10: It will glow red if anyone in your group has the Perception skill.
5 of 10: If not, look for a cracked and crumbly wall section.
6 of 10: It's in the NW tower.
7 of 10: Move up against it and press the attack key until it crumbles.
8 of 10: Then crouch down to move forward through the hole.
9 of 10: Once you're inside the fortifications, you can enter the actual keep through a door on the ground floor, or one up on the top level (use the winding stairs in the towers to move up and down levels).
10 of 10: To avoid a certain game glitch, I strongly advise you to always enter through the upper entrance.
