JuicieJ, when I got to the point where I needed to free the maidens, eventually I traveled to the ice palace, and for the life of me I could not find a way to get in. Is there a way, without using the titan's mitts? I then went west to the swamp and also couldn't find a way in (I hadn't yet...
Sorry to have angered some of you. All I'm doing is providing my honest opinions of the games, but I am known for not tempering my criticism with tact so apologies.
