This is a little off the subject, but still has a lot to do with the zapping
amulets.
Anyway, I found a way the theoretically win on level 1.  I haven't been able
to win on lev 1, but have been able to on level 6 after getting a wand shop.
It would be possible to win on lev 2 if you use wizards and get bones files
and a wand of polymorph.

You can polymorph wands until you get a wand of wishing.  Wish for the amulet.
Big deal, eh?  a cheap imitation...well, just use your friendly wand of
polymorph on it and <poof>...the real mccoy.

Maybe not as fun, and it's only worth 5000 zm....not as much as 3 diamonds.
