Try throwing it around a bit...

...

The guard annoys you, doesn't he?

...

Don't worry if the outcome doesn't please you, try somewhere else...

...

Throw it into the abyss...

OK, is this a bug?  I got turned into a frog, found I couldn't carry a book, then as soon as I left the library to report back to the wizard and complain that I couldn't carry a book because I was a frog, suddenly there's a stomping of hooves, I'm surrounded by animals, and the game is over (after a bit of wandering around).  Neither the hooves/animals nor the end of the game make any sense whatsoever.  I feel like I've missed a significant portion of the game.  Is this just a weird game with a wacky unrelated ending or did something go wrong?  It does this each time I play through it...

Sorry about the repost.  

The same thing just happened to me.  Too bad there is no readme or author contact info in the download.  J

The splendid piece of gaming was made by Superhoughton, a very talented and wise man, who is the legend around AGS old guard.
When he still was with us, nobody could understand the wanderings and sudden twists of his immensly educated brain. The ending you've reached is the proper one, you haven't missed anything - but to achieve any understanding, I guess you just have to read as much ancient philosophers as Superhoughton did. He never told us what the ending signified, he just used to smile mysteriously and told us that we will "understand in due time". Now there's even a discussion group that meets on the mIrc channel to discuss and ponder the meaning of the ending with lots of sheep et al.

Title: Re: Aaron's Epic Journey Help
Post by: on Thu 02/09/2004 04:36:04
Just talk to the dude in the ship, but I think you need to have gotten the spellbook from the pig first which you can only do in the cave and if you need to do that...

Spoiler
Grab the potato cook book from in the ship, and give that book to the pig when you're all gathered in the cave. Then he'll disappear and you can get the spellbook

You have to try and get past guard at castle, then tell George about it. He'll then talk to you about the pig, then you can find it.

Just do what I say. Jam strawberries and whipped cream in a supermodels pussy and then eat it. You will finish the game in no time. You could also duct tape a vibrATOR INTO HER. sHE WILL CRY. The orgasm that doesnt stop!

I'm sorry I didn't understand your answer regarding how to get in the locked window behind the castle wall. I talked to the wizard George in the large boat and he said to go to my room and get some books. But I can't get in the window and I can't get past the guard. Can someone help? :-X

Climb up the castle wall by your window and then use the axe with rope on it thing (Sorry cant remember what they're called!) to climb up to your window.

(sorry I don't know how to use the spoiler to cover this up)

give the pig the book in your inventry,while he reads it you can take the book from his pile.
use the mint on yourself and then the book.

(I think) ;D

Don't use the breathmint on yourself.  Use it on another sheep before you exit the cave.
