The Secret Land translation

[Kirkub]

Hiya,
thanks to the Curse of the Mystics thread I came across "Dizzy The Secret Land". The webpage for it on this site says "If you can help with translation, please let us know on the community forum".
Well, here I am. What do you need from me? Do I have to play the entire game and translate every speech bubble, item names, etc. or is there a walkthrough or or or?
I'm not very good at staying alive in Dizzy games, so I wouldn't count on me finishing the game with only 3 lives to begin with.
Let me know if I can do be useful!

Cheers,
Kirk

PS The same goes for any other games in Polish and most of them in Russian, although my Russian is rusty at this point.

Hi

Well basically, we want to find out what the story's about (The Intro) and what the aim of the game is.

Swiat Dizzy already have posted a Polish solution here.

http://www.dizzy.pl/gry/dtsl/droga44.shtml

Somebody from there posted about this game on the old Forums a long time ago and said that they would do an English version which sadly never happened.

I played this not very long ago and it looked like a really good game, but I got as far as entering the town and I couldn't understand what the other characters were saying/asking for.

[Kirkub]

All righty then! In that case, I'll try to finish the game with help from Swiat Dizzy and provide translation of all of the dialogues encountered along the way, followed by "invisible" solution of what to do with the items. Wish me luck

And just to get you started, here's the translation of the intro:

"Once upon a time...

Sarg-Yard, [is] a mysterious town located not far from the Yolk Folk forest. That place has long contained countless mysteries. Its inhabitants have always been friendly, and they would help one another.

One time, a strange light appeared. Silence fell, and people surprised by this phenomenon had no idea what would happen in the following moments...

Suddenly, Deadman appeared in the sky, an evil and powerful necromancer. At that moment terrified townspeople could only fear the worst...

And that's exactly what happened. He [Deadman] didn't spare anyone who got in his way. He cast a spell upon defenseless townspeople, changing them along the way into his serfs.

The once-abandoned castle on the edge of town was taken over by Deadman.

The evil-doer gathered much intelligence on Dizzy, after Dizzy got rid of the wizard Zaks; that's why Deadman burned Dizzy's house so that he [Dizzy] would stay out of his [Deadman's] evil plan to rule the town of Sarg-Yard.

Dizzy intends to investigate the situation and foil Deadman's plan."

Now, on to playing. Cheers for now!

[Kirkub]

Allright, Adz. Here's the walkthrough and translation. I *barely* finished the game with no extra lives and barely any energy left :!
You might want to move it to Fan Games Help section...?

The walkthrough below is invisible, with the exception of all of the conversations, those are visible. Enjoy!

MegaJohny: I'd like to, but my power is draining and with each passing moment I get weaker!

[Adz.M]

Well, Many thanks to you for posting this Kirkub

I'll update the details in the game's page on Yolkfolk a bit later

[Ababeb]

What the? I've completely forgotten this game even exists! I offered Miras to make a translation of the game for him, so CID 1&2 wouldn't be the only Polish games on the site (in case you don't know them, they were the first Polish Dizzy fan-games. Don't play them). After I finished it, Miras said he wanted to fix some bugs first before the international release. He wasn't in hurry, and eventually I stopped bugging him about it, 11.12.08 was the last time, according to my GG archive. I don't remember why exactly he didn't make it, I think he mentioned losing source, but I'm not sure. I guess I should ask him.
You know, what is the worst part? This is the second time it happened. Another user nicknamed Cyco created Dizzy Z, on whose English version I worked on. It was harder, since he hadn't given me game's code, unlike Miras (in case you ask, I don't have it anymore myself) or even a script, so I also had to write down all the text in the game. That was a pain, and I did it all in vain, because the author had formatted his disk.
There was also Dragons 2, but the game itself wasn't finished, so you're not missing out much.
