Quest for Glory 5: Dragon Fire Hints

How can I get onto Science Island?

  • 1 of 5: Just follow the instructions on the sign.  The windmill needs to be turning. Pull the brake lever on the right to release the brakes and get the gondola moving.
  • 2 of 5: Pull the brake lever again when the gondola gets to the platform close enough for you to hop on board.
  • 3 of 5: There is no mechanism to control it from the inside.  You must use the brake lever without getting out of the basket.
  • 4 of 5: Once aboard the gondola, throw something (a rock, dagger, spear or force bolt spell) at the brake lever.
  • 5 of 5: When it stops, jump onto Science Island.
