Completed Game Announcements / Re: Anna's Quest Vol. 1: Winfriede's Tower

« on: 03 Oct 2012, 20:28 »

I've just finished the game and I really enjoyed it. It is a great start for a game series. The animations and the backgrounds are beautiful, and the voice acting is top notch. For the most part the puzzles were very enjoyable: I only got stuck once, and I only had to resort to trying all items on every other item once. Good stuff. I'll be looking forward to the next games!

Just one request, please get rid of the animation preloading in future episodes. It's a bit of a turn off when launching the game for a quick session.

I am stuck a bit in chapter 2...

figure out how to repair the voice recorder.

Look around for replacement parts. You can't do enough damage.

By the way, there's already a hints thread for this game.

Tabata beat me to it..  ill leave it just in case

Interact with the bird that flew into the nest near the generator

Thank you guys, that's the step I was missing. I'm almost sure I had tried it earlier, maybe I had to trigger some other action before it would work. I've finished the game, thanks for making and sharing it!

@jkohen
You need something to fill it in

Thanks! I supposed I needed to do that, but neither alien has an item that can help me do that. I've looked around to no avail. Could you tell me what I'm missing?

I have accumulated a large inventory, but

I have no idea how to get oil from the opened barrel,

or

how to get the key from the grate. I think I need to bend the antenna for the latter, but no idea on how to do that.

I love the graphics, it seems very atmospheric. I never played the original, and based on the descriptions I probably wouldn't play it, but I'm definitely playing this version. Thanks for bringing this game "to the masses" :-)

Ali and jkohen: Have you tried utilizing the "boost" ability?

I have, not really know what effect it has. It's impossible to stop the bar at the right time. I get like a microsecond. My reflexes are generally very sharp, so it's definitely a matter of speed (or you're excellently trained in this game, Sir )

But this suggestion only applies in a universe where the game operates at the same speed on all machines. Hey, jkohen: are you saying the gameplay in the trailer is slower than it is on your machine?

Anyway, thanks for playing the game everybody!

Thanks for making it!

Yes, the gameplay in the trailer looks pretty reasonable in comparison to what I get here. If you don't believe, I could try to record a video, but I haven't done this on the comp before.

BTW, I'm running the games under Linux. It hasn't given any problems with an AGS game in the last couple years, though, and I've played dozens to say the least.

Is anybody playing this?

I tried, but the minigames are way too fast for me. It's very hard, in some cases practically impossible, to get time the action right. I just watched the trailer on YouTube, and the difference in speed is quite obvious.

I would love to get an updated version that's playable by humans :-)

Well, I did it by  ...

my own.

(a bit more?)

Think about a way to to lure away the concierge from that computer.

Thanks, but I had already guessed that was the way to solve. However,

I don't know where to play the recording of the fire alarm to get the concierge's attention. The main character says "not here" everywhere I try to play it. Where should I do it?

I'm liking the game a lot so far!

To get from your second class suite to your first class suite, you must

first gain, then remit your Star Alliance rewards points

 

How do you gain points? I found the card, but it has 0 points. I can't figure out how to get any.

And on the second-floor room:

Is it possible to enter the bathroom, or is the open door a red herring?

Thanks!

I tried to download the demo from the AGS Games page, but the link takes me to a website where I only have an option to buy the game. It looks interesting, but since your recent games are commercial and I didn't really like .J.Gun and Sepheret island, I'm a bit wary of buying it as is.

Having some trouble here, I can't keep the water from blasting me against the glass.

I've put the two blocks of wood and hammered them in place, but after a while they chip and give in anyway.

I've shutdown the valve inside "the floor" and turned off the electricity from the fusebox. I've gotten the radio to work, but the rescue team doesn't arrive.

Huh. Ok. I can't seem to replicate that.

When you shoot the barrel, the cloud of gas appears above it and the guy covers his face, and you can't click on him? Or do those things not happen?

Maybe this helps:

I reloaded a previous game and this time it worked. What I did differently the first time was that I entered the shootout, and then I had to leave to pick up the penetration ammo and come back. Maybe that triggered the bug.

Definitely a bug, then:

The cloud of gas never appears and the guy doesn't cover his face, but the game shows a text description of that.

Hmmm, I don't think thats a bug; theres two ways past that; one is time-sensitive so you can't do it anymore, the other you can still do.

I mean, there >might< be a bug but I can't reproduce it. Here's what to do if you don't ming spoilers for a single puzzle:

If you shoot the barrel you have a very short time to hit the guy. You might want to reload and try it from an earlier save. But you can also give your pistol to Dr. Landri (she says something about "I don't have a weapon") at which point she'll start trying to shoot the guy and distract him. You can then take him out with the rifle from the mercs.

If you do try let me know how it goes, if only to be sure weather its a bug or not.

I have tried the first option many times at different game speeds. I don't think I could click faster, and the mouse is already almost over the guy, so I'm definitely not wasting much time.

I'll try the other approach, thanks.

Very interesting so far, I really like the backdrop to the story.

However, I got version 1.01 of the game. I'm stuck at some point, but it looks like a bug (or a missing hint):

I'm at the shootout with the guy in the trenchcoat after the room with the scientist and the force field. I've shot the gas barrel with the penetrating ammo, and the scientist tells me to shoot him quickly while his distracted. No matter what I try, he always avoids the shot and I'm told to distract him...

Completed Game Announcements / Re: Earl Bobby is Looking for a Loo

« on: 04 Nov 2010, 20:32 »

This is a good game. If you liked Earl Bobby's previous adventure when he was looking for his balls, you're in for a treat. If you haven't played it, then what are you waiting for, silly? Le Woltaire simply has the best camera work in any AGS game I've played, free or commercial. You know you've been waiting for a good, entertaining game for a couple months now, so why wait any longer?

Too lazy to pay for the game before playing it? Maybe you'd rather steal it and pay for it later? Hm... just don't tell anyone, or maybe next time Earl Bobby will be looking for you.

Disclaimer: I helped translate and test the game (but I get no money from its sales).

Can you send me a Walkthrough from this nice game for a WT website !

Peter, we heard you the first 10 times. Please give us some peace already.

If you are playing the game and got stuck, then feel free to ask for help getting through that part. If you tell us what language you speak, since you said you're not comfortable with English, maybe somebody who knows that language will be able to help you.
