Jason: So the secret to getting past the red orb guardian is to not attack him?? But he's huge! He's nasty! he's the most lethal video game creature ever! He towers above you with fists like anvils! Skulls litter the ground at his feet! Jason: And you're not supposed to even try to take his guy on in a fight?? Wow, talk about counter-intuitive. Paige: Refresh my memory. You spend how many nanoseconds in the real world each day?

I used to play Kings Quest, back in the DOS days. You were rewarded with more points if you found the non-violent solllution. You could play it either way, and both ways were fun, but the highest score could be attained if you didn’t kill the dragon, or the giant, or whatever.

I’ve found letting the other side attack first to be a very effective method in many games. A lot of guardians are oblivious to you if you move slowly and ignore them.

I agree with Jason, the Red Orb Guardian was obviously asking for it!
