Jumping puzzles, the likes of which usually aren't seen outside a Super Mario Bros. Furthermore, the linearity, first seen in Ultima VII: Serpent Isle, runs rampant to such an extreme degree that randomly stealing something in town gets you instantly killed by a teleporting wizard lawman.
It is one thing to have Iolo admonish you for being a naughty Avatar when you grab a loaf of bread from somebody's table but to be instantly killed for it is another matter entirely.
The designers intend for you to explore the world and obtain items in a certain order and you have to comply. The SVGA graphics are often quite lush and exquisitely detailed, a testament to Origin's enduringly fantastic art department.
The game's alien atmosphere is never once broken via inappropriate graphic design or lackluster attention to detail. Sound Blaster sound effects are also quite appropriate and enjoyable and the Ad-Lib compatible MIDI music, while not quite as good as previous games, still holds its own. Fortunately, the update fixed many of the problems such as the parts of the game that require you to jump over randomly shifting blocks perfectly or die -- they've been reworked with a more CRPG-friendly variety.
The new version also addresses multiple bugs of varying degrees of seriousness and make the game far more enjoyable as a whole.

More jumping over stones is needed here to find a key on a skeleton. Head back and then northward, past the fireshrooms, until you reach a small lake.

Cast "Open Ground" here and fall through the hole. Look for all the Rolling Spheres and the blue floor. You'll need to toss something a skull over the gate onto the raised platform to open the gate. Grab two keys in this area. Jump over the light-ray to save hit points.
To solve the "Hanoi's Tower" puzzle, move all the stairs into the middle. Your first step will take away a stair and your second will place it.

Go back to the Rolling Spheres by unlocking several doors with this key. Get the Ceremonial shield and return to the place with the benches. Place the shield on the altar. The door to Khumash-Gor is opened with the scroll you get from Mythran's. To defeat him easily, cast a "Grant Peace" on the ghost which attacks you. Get the Obelisk Tip and leave the Catacombs. If Devon is placed in Jail, you will need to use Mythran's scroll to open the wall where a small purple book lies encaged.
The doorways to the areas of Fire, Air, and Water are near the gateway you went through before finding the Double-Doorway to the Hall of the Mountain King and can be unlocked with the Key of the Caretaker. You can get the Heart of Earth by transporting to the Hall of the Mountain King and heading out the doors to the south, then unlocking the door to the east and heading up the west-fork.
Make your way behind the Conventicle and keep moving until you find a plaque with the words: "Conventicler", near a grave alongside a gate and a lever.

Talk to Stellos, and then talk to the guy with a sword who Stellos tells you to see about joining their order.

The mines are below the Monastery. Take the stairs down in the Kitchen. Look for eight pieces of silver. The building with no door can be opened with Mythran's Scroll, and contains The Protector sword. Then go back to Argentrock and place the foci on the altar. To pass the third test you need to return to the mine. Cast "Aerial Servant" on the wounded Torax in the west-end of the mine to bring him closer.
