Lost in Deling City's sewers? Here's how to get through them.Jun 27 '00 Write an essay on this topic.Near the end of disc 1 of Final Fantasy VIII, you'll be taking Quistis, Selphie, and Zell through a tough maze in the sewers under Deling City. This part can get frustrating since you wind up in a lot of rooms that look the same and even the Strategy Guide's maps can be hard to follow. Here are step-by-step directions for the fastest route through the sewers: Directions refer to screen positioning, top, bottom, left, and right. 1) You'll start in a room with a water wheel. Go left, cross the bridge, and go through the left top gate. Continue through the tunnel to the room with two water wheels. Go left, cross the bridge, and exit through the top gate on the left. 2) In the next tunnel, walk up to the ladder and press X to make the ladder fall, but don't use the ladder to cross the sewer. Continue on the same side and through the next gate. 3) You'll find yourself in another wheel room. Go up the ramp and through the right top gate, then continue straight through the tunnel and go through the next gate. 4) In the next two-wheel room, go right, cross the bridge, go through the top gate on the right side, and continue straight through the tunnel and through the next gate. 5) In the next two-wheel room, face the right wheel and press X to ride the wheel up, cross the bridge, ride the left wheel down, and go through the left bottom gate. 6) In next two-wheel room ride the right wheel down and go through the right bottom gate. 7) You're now in another two-wheel room which is in fact the room from step 1, except now you're on the right side. Ride the right wheel down and go through the right bottom gate. Continue through the tunnel and into the one-wheel room you started in. Go down the ramp and exit through the top gate on the right side. 8) In the next tunnel, walk up to the ladder and press X to make the ladder fall, but don't cross it. Stay on the same side and go through the top right gate, then continue to the next wheel room. 9) Cross the bridge, ride the wheel up and go through the top left gate, then continue straight ahead through the tunnel. Cross the bridge in the next room to find a Save Point and a ladder. 10) Go up the ladder through two rooms to get to the Switch Room. By the way, if you're not even able to get to the sewers because you're stuck with Squall and Irvine in front of the palace, you might have forgotten to talk to Caraway. Go back to where the others are at the Gate Tower and look in the background. Caraway blends in in the darkness so he's easy to miss, but you must have Squall talk to him before the game can continue. |
