Title: can you get stuck in Broken Sword (may cantain spoilers)
Post by: Timosity on Thu 12/08/2004 10:46:32
I have this funny feeling I have to back track and I have no idea how far in The Shadow of the Templars.

I'm in Spain in the Well and I think I need a torch to enter the black hole in the wall, it gave some message about: I wish I got the torch off that bad dude, maybe in Ireland or something. And the old dude that waters the garden says he doesn't have a torch.

I don't think I can go and catch a plane anywhere, Am I stuck or is there some work around? like as if I couldn't pick up the candle,

silly adventures that don't have logical multiple solutions.

sorry to post this here, but I figure people around here will know (if they understand where I am in the game)

actually the candles wouldnt work because of the draught in the well... probably (I seem to remember something about that) I dont THINK there are any walking deads, you are probably missing something, but I havent played it in ages, let me see if I can work it out.

You dont need a torch or candle, there is a source of light in the well that you can use.

(hurrah for hints)

Thanks for letting me know I wasn't stuck, man, it took a while to figure out the puzzle, but I got there in the end.

Cheers

No problem I probably had to look at the guild for this bit, I think Ill play it again since I dont seem to remember most of the puzzles, btw I dont know if you know about this but http://www.uhs-hints.com is great for adventure games, little nudges towards the answer.

EDIT: fixed typo

I didn't think of UHS but yeah, it is a great thing for little hints like that.

I just finished the game, Great game, I'm not sure if I liked the ending yet, was sort of all over too quick, but overall the game's up there with my favourites

edit:
I just noticed a typo in the url

I'm actually pretty certain that Broken Sword does have Walking deads. But I can't be sure...
