Everything new. --------------------- III. Introduction --------------------- Hello all and welcome to my item guide for The Tower of Druaga, a great game by Namco. Due to the randomness of the items, some of which are necessary, and the lack of hints to help you find them, this game was overlooked for the greatness it is. I've recently dug up my old copy of Namco Museum Volume 3 and while looking for a list to help me with the items, I became very disappointed. I was not able to find a full list, only incomplete lists which left out certain items (either because they were not know or because they are bad for you to get. I didn't like that and decided to change that. So here it is, a full guide to the items of The Tower of Druaga. --------------------- IV. Permissions --------------------- Here is a list of all the sites that currently have permission to put this FAQ on their site. If you have asked for permission and your name is not on the list, chances are it's because I haven't created a new version. When I create a new version of the document I will be sure to include the URL of your site. Please don't e-mail me saying you got permission but it's not on here. I ask this to prevent people from lying and getting permission without asking. Think about it. In that e-mail that you sent saying your site isn't on here you could have asked me and gotten permission. You just wasted an e-mail. Besides I keep a close record of who has asked and who hasn't. Actually, unless your site has a reputation of ripping off people's walkthroughs then I really have no reason to deny permission. But please, just ask. Note that the latest version of this and all my other guides will always be available on GameFAQs. http://www.gamefaqs.com http://www.cheatplanet.com http://www.neoseeker.com http://faqs.ign.com --------------------- V. Anti-Permissions --------------------- This is a list of sites that I never have and never will give permission to, no matter how nicely they ask. These sites have a strong reputation of stealing guides from other authors and even going so far as to modify them to add themselves to permissions lists or remove themselves from anti-permissions lists. If you are reading this guide on one of the sites listed below know that you are reading an unauthorized and illegally obtained copy, and that any information in that copy may be out of date or entirely incorrect. Please visit one of the sites in the list above for authorized and legal copies of this work. http://www.cheatcc.com --------------------- VI. Contents --------------------- I. Copyright Stuff II.

Let's get some content for this area, eh? --------------------- VIII. Example Item --------------------- Okay, the layout here is pretty simple. A sample is below. Six of the floors have special areas you must walk over. You're going to get some beautiful ASCII maps from me on those! Anywho, if the walls on my map don't match the walls on yours, that's okay. The lines and circles are areas you can walk on while white space is walls. It's not the walls that matter, it's the locations. A map applies to the item located directly above it. Also, since only two floors have tips, the tip section will only appear on those floors. Floor.) Name -------- Item Name. How to Find - A description on how to find it.
