Shadowgate - Ways to Die
34Most, if not all, of the ways you can meet a terrible end in Shadowgate for the NES version. There is some redundancy in that I commit suicide with all of the possible items but only include variant jumping into pits/out windows once. Likewise, I include your torch going out along with extinguishing your torch by using it on the sphere and putting it in water (which is identical to using it on the slime in the crypt). You can get the same death message jumping into the well in the courtyard as the well room (I opted to use the rope for the unique dialogue).
A number of deaths in the Macventure version are removed for the Kemco version, mostly for preventing softlocks. As you also don't have the consume command in this version you can't try to eat the various monsters you encounter.
You can purchase Shadowgate, Deja Vu, and Uninvited at part of a collection at https://store.steampowered.com/app/664850/8bit_Adventure_Anthology_Volume_I/
It seemed a good time to replay and upload these with the Beyond Shadowgate Kickstarter being live.
