- TAS-page (best ending run) - http://tasvideos.org/1795M.html, minor strat ideas from the TAS have been used in the videos on the game page here in the knowledge base. Most room solutions will however look completely different between real-time and TAS because of corner landings being used in the TAS. It's a one-frame trick that saves a little time each time. In real-time it would be very inconsistent to rely on room solutions that require corner landings (even though it's perfectly feasible in theory).

- Background - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_of_Solomon http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seal_of_Solomon - The game story is actually very loosely based on a Medieval legend. These links gives some additional information on these aspects.
- Fastest non-SDA speedrun with video (best ending) - http://dic.nicovideo.jp/v/sm1091455, the room solutions in room 12 and 33 here in the knowledge base were inspired by this video. There are a few more videos of Solomon's Key, but they are easy to find through google/youtube and/or don't use any strats that have helped develop the room solutions shown here in the knowledge base.
