Title: Detention!
Post by: stu on Sun 08/05/2005 14:54:39
You've been a bad boy at school and now you're in detention, so now t is now your task to leave the entire school with your sanity still intact!
Good luck brave, brave soul.

Small, neat and perfectly formed. Good game.

Did manage to get 2 broken walkmans though by repeatedly talking to cleaner.

I found the puzzles very challenging, even if now I couldn't say if they're logical or not. I must confess that I'm stuck, and I arrived at the point where I tried everything on everything, with no result (of course I missed something). It's the first time I find so much trouble finishing a game.

So:
Spoiler
I've got the pen, the pencil case, the lighter, the broken walkman and the duct tape. What the hell should I do know? (Just a little help, please, don't spoil me all the game)

Ahem, Jane...

I wrote that I've got the PEN, so I've watched into the pencil case...

It's funny that I'm able to help you, since I'm stuck almost at the beginning, but anyway:

Spoiler
Ask the teacher to go in the bathroom, then look in the sink

for starters, you need to force it open somehow.

Thanks Stephanie but that was not the problem!

Spoiler
Oh, my! Do you people think I don't LOOK AT items?
If that was true I wouldn't have also looked at the pencil case to find the pen!!!! I change the question, to be sure that you understand now: "how do I open the pen?"
I didn't ask it before, just because I wasn't sure if there was something to do before opening the pen!
So, just tell me the next thing to do when having the pen (knowing there's something inside), the pencil case, the lighter, the broken walkman, the duct tape. The very next thing to do. Thanks.

You must get the cutters from the toolbox. Then cut the pen with them. You will get the item from inside of it.

Pull the wire, and when the guy's distracted, quickly snatch it from the toolbox.

I love it when I can finish a game without using a walkthrough either through lack of patience or getting stuck on certain things / not being able to get past even the first level or task....
*laughs*
Thank you very much!

Nice work Stu!Ã,  I love the quirky sense of humour you've got going...I imagine the moral of the story to be, "See kids? Job dissatisfaction can be fun!"Ã, 
Spoiler
I also loved the headbanging animation of the janitor.Ã,  It totally made my day.

Great game! I generally suck at adventure games, but this is the first time in a while that I've been able to get myself unstuck without looking at any hints! ;D

This is a fun little game. All the puzzles are logical, and are fun to do. Takes you a while to think of what to do next, though. Great if you have some spare minutes of playtime. ;D
