Because of the structure of the exodus program, it fits into the category of action-adventure. However, it's not a true arcade game, nor is it a true adventure. It's more like a combination of both. This prevented the Origin Systems, Inc.al author from writing this tutorial in the normal format. Instead, it will just have all of the clues needed to solve the game.

The Moon Doors take you to many places throughout Sorsaria. Each door has three trajectories, or, takes you to three different places. When a Moon Door appears, note the positions of the two moons (2 #'s on the top of the screen). If you press 'Space', these numbers will change three times, then the door will disappear, and depending on the position of the two moons, you will be transported to different areas:

• To find the city of Dawn, stand on top of Lord British's castle, and move west-8 and then south-35 and press 'Space' until the two #'s on the top of the screen are both 0's. Then type 'E'nter.
• Ambrosia, the lost continent. Get a frigate, find the whirlpool. Run into it and wait a minute, it will say you died, but you didn't! Be sure to take at least four keys into ambrosia as the only way to get out is to capture a boat, and sail to a lock and unlock it.
• The four shrines can be found in the land of Ambrosia: strength in the Southwest; dexterity in the Southeast; intelligence in the Northwest; and wisdom in the Northeast.
• When you are at the four shrines, be sure to type 'O'ther, then 'SEARCH' as you will find the cards of Sol, Moons, Death, and Love there.
• How to get a boat: When you see a pirate ship on the shore, move up right next to it. If you can win the battle, the ship is yours!
• To get the marks of Fire, Force, Snake, and King, go to the Dungeon of Fire. It is surrounded on three sides by lava. To get there, go southeast along the coast from Lord British's castle. The dungeon is hidden in a dark forest. When you come across it, there is hot spot on the wall. Who will touch? You have found one of the marks. Here is what each of the marks let you do:
  • Mark of Kings - Lets you gain more levels + hit points.
  • Mark of Fire - Walk through lava without taking any damage.
  • Mark of Snake - Lets you pass by the earth serpent.
  • Mark of Force - Walk through a force field without taking any damage.
• Exotics: the weapons of ultimate good. The Exotic weapons can be found on one of the islands up near the city of Fawn. Just get on one and type 'o' (for other command) then 'dig'. If it says "not here!", move on to the next (square) or next island as the case may be.
  The Exotic armor can be found on one of the islands in the bay which is located Southwest of where you are now. Repeat the above commands.
• Now, we suggest that you just run around and gain levels and go get your hit points from Lord British until you have a goodly amount. The Origin Systems, Inc.al author suggested about six to ten thousand and said you'll need it.
• Once you've become familiar with Sorsaria, combat, fighting, and the like, remember: know thy enemy! Be sure to always talk to the people in towns as they tell you a lot.

With exotic weapons and armor on all of your men, board your frigate and begin thy final quest.

Sail up to the earth serpent that is blocking the entrance to the port and 'yell [what?] 'evocare'. You and your party will be transported on the other side of the snake. Now, move up to the castle and then exit your craft and 'e'nter.

Once inside the castle you should go straight up until you see a monster. From there go either left or right into the moving lava. Note: do not go up to where you see a forcefield and a guard, as that passage just loops around and comes back out at the entrance!

As soon as you pass the lava, you will be attacked by: dragons, wyverns, or griffons. Beware! These monsters can hurl a blast all the way across the arena!

After you dispose of them, go over and up a ways, and you will encounter another group of dragons. After killing them, keep going North and you will encounter some balrons [or devils of some sort]. Kill these and continue North. Have you noticed that there are explosions all around you? Watch out! They can hit you and do great damage! Also be aware that time cannot be stopped in the castle, so do not bother using a powd or an altair spell as they will not work!

Now, keep going north, and you should encounter another group of dragons (what's the big deal with dragons?). Anyway, kill these suckers and go East (if you went east from the monster at the entrance, go west). You will see some writing on the wall below you: death (pay no heed).

Now, go straight up into the lava. You will soon see a rectangular object with many moving colors. That is exodus! Exodus is a machine! But before you step any closer, beware! The floors upon which he lies are alive and will attack you! There are four groups of them. You cannot see them, so do this once in combat mode:

and wait. As soon as one of you gets hit, start attacking with your exotic weapons (you did remember to bring enough for all four of you didn't you?). After you kill all of the floors, move up to Exodus, but don't worry, he's only a machine and cannot attack you, yet...

Move up to the top left hand corner of him/it and type: 'o'ther (it will say what command) type: 'insert' (did you bring the cards?). Then it will ask: s, m, l, d ?
