Problem? Castle locked still...

Three Amulets

Hello! I'm been thoroughly enjoying Three Amulets, but I think I'm finally stuck.
The goblin castle is still locked up tight. When I first encountered the needy woman, I gave her 100g, because that's the kind of warm-hearted gal I am. So I was able to get passed the dragon. I have all three amulets. I've been wandering around over and over and over again, looking for any little thing I possibly could have missed.
No matter what, I still can't get into the castle.
Can anyone provide any assistance?
Thanks!

If I am remembering correctly, the computer in the place the dragon guards has some clues. There should be another entrance to the castle somewhere, although I can't remember where, and you may need something to get in it. If you still can't find it let me know and I'll take a look at my save games for it and see if I can figure out how I got in.

Hmm.. 
Thenewguy's right, there is a secret entrence, and the computer can give you a clue.
(My god...what a horrible dmod...)

Nonsense, I actually like it quite a bit. Would I call it a masterpiece: No. But, it has a very unique feel (more like Zelda) compared to other DMODs and does a pretty good job at expressing it. I also found the bosses and the dungeons to be be pretty fun. And for that alone, especially since the dungeons are such a big point of the game, I think calling it a horrible DMOD is being a little unfair to yourself.

If you want to play a horrible DMOD, there are many to choose from, but I don't think "Three Amulets" is one of them. In fact, I think I would call it above average. Darn you, you made me write a review without meaning to!

Well it was made three years ago.. and I really put in all I had and did the best game I could.. the problem is that I am three years older now.. And the graphics are really ugly compared to what I could do now, the scripts are really messy and the story was just made up as I went along XD
Oh, but yeah it's different compared to your typical dmod..

The funny thing is that I still like "Agatha" which was done just a couple of months later... even tough the story still doesn't make any sense and the graphics are horrible

"Three Amulets" had it's flaws, but I guess they just weren't serious enough to keep me from continuing.

I still haven't played "Agatha Smallwood's Will" but I will, someday!

Thanks so much, I can't believe I didn't check the computer. When I went back I wondered how in the world I possibly missed that one.

Thanks again!

I agree, iplaydink, there's something about Three Amulets that has kept me playing it this long. I have very little time, so I can only devote about 30 minutes a day to playing. I have tried a handful of different DMOD's and this is the only one that has kept my interest (I don't think I've played any of your other DMOD's).
I like it, I think it's good and challenging. Thanks for all your hard work on it!

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy it!

The thing is I haven't really made that many dmods.. the only decent ones are "Three Amulets" and "Agatha Smallwood's Will".. the rest is mostly development files and graphics and things like that

But one day I will make another dmod!
