Simon the Sorcerer 3D Hints

How can I catch a sprite?

  • 1 of 16: Don't even try until you've been instructed to by the Wizard's Guild.
  • 2 of 16: Once you've been told to catch one, go talk to Calypso.
  • 3 of 16: Since the sprites are only out at night, Calypso has been kind enough to get Simon a room, so he can rest until nighttime.
  • 4 of 16: Simon is now booked into Room 4.
  • 5 of 16: He'll need to sleep on the bed in order to make it nighttime.
  • 6 of 16: Sprites live in the forest.
  • 7 of 16: Can you think of a good place in the forest area to catch a sprite?
  • 8 of 16: The best place to catch one is in the butterfly meadow.
  • 9 of 16: Use your butterfly net, just as you did to catch a butterfly.
  • 10 of 16: Hmm... I guess the net can't hold a sprite.  However, you will see someone who managed to catch one.
  • 11 of 16: You won't find an empty container like his -- you'll have to figure out how to get his sprite.
  • 12 of 16: The young man holding the sprite is one of the players of a role-playing game.
  • 13 of 16: A game is being played at the Lonely Hut.
  • 14 of 16: Go to the Lonely Hut and talk to the players.
  • 15 of 16: They say they will keep playing, as long as they have all the players.
  • 16 of 16: They also say they would like some pizza.
