I would first like to give a brief background on Wishbringer. The object of Wishbringer is to find the cat, Chaos, and bring him/her/it back the woman who owns the Magick Shoppe. Wishbringer is unique in that it can be solved many different ways (thus allowing for longer game- play). Wishbringer (the item you will find) is equipped with 7 wishes, and the game can be solved without using any of them. In my completing the story, I had to use one wish, and I may try to go back and solve the story without using that wish, but the solution I provide here will be the same. You will end up with 95 out of 100 pts, while still successfully completing the game. This solution will not be "exact". As it is, there are wandering monsters ("Boots") that you will have to avoid on your own. I will present answers to any obstacles that may seem difficult to people like me who did not buy the game package. Notes will be included in brackets..
