Setting Up
1. Set up your Console according to the instructions in its Instruction Manual. Make sure the power is off before inserting a compact disc.
2. Insert the Gold and Glory: The Road to El Dorado™ disc and close the disc cover.
3. Insert a game controller and turn on the PlayStation® game console. 4. Follow the On-Screen Instructions to Start the game.
Conversations
During Gold and Glory: The Road to El Dorado™ there will be plenty of occasions when The Heroes will need to extract information from other characters. In these instances, walk The Heroes over to the character and press the X button.
When it's The Heroes' turn to speak, a selection of discussion topics may appear at the bottom of the screen. Some of these might be specific people or they might be regarding objects or other events going on in the game.
When selecting the discussion topic, it's worth remembering that some of the characters The Heroes will be talking to will be strangers. It's often much better to ease into the conversation gently before asking them directly about your goals.
Using the Inventory
As with conversations, The Heroes' inventory is displayed at the bottom of the screen. Think laterally as some objects might seem useless, but are far from it.
Your hero has deep pockets that can carry a wide range of inventory items. These items can be viewed by pressing A button and selected by pressing X button.
Switching Characters
At certain times in the game you will be able to change which Hero you control. This can be done by talking to the other Hero and selecting his face from the menu, or by accessing your inventory and selecting his face.
