How It Begins

You are a nameless adventurer who plans to energize the Primary Source with the head of St. John the Baptist, a powerful spiritual object, and thus unleash enough creativity for the new SpeedIF. Unfortunately, the heretics of the Quebecois Iconoclast Society stole not only your head of the Baptist, but eleven others from all over the globe.

That's why you've broken into their secret storehouse and are now carrying twelve different heads of St. John the Baptist. Your task is to discover which head is truly the saint's and take it back to the Source.

Notable Features

  • Randomized solution.
  • One location uses non-standard directions (xyzzy and widdershins) instead of the usual compass directions.
