Might and Magic IX Hints
How do I open the secret passage?
1 of 9: Have you found a room with a note on the wall referring to caverns beneath the castle?
2 of 9: It's the far NE room of the castle.
3 of 9: Now how might you open that passage?
4 of 9: Try going around and using things.
5 of 9: The gimmick is one of the shields on the wall.
6 of 9: It's the one in the NE corner, near the stat barrel.
7 of 9: Use it to turn it and open a secret door in the SW wall.
8 of 9: You can now enter the caverns through this door.
9 of 9: Note that the act of opening the secret door turns all the half-orc guards in the castle hostile, so hurry down into the cave tunnel if you don't want to have to deal with them now.
