helphelphelp!
i really enjoy playing that game, but i'm stuck.
i did
Spoiler
show the deed to mother, comedian, bear and wizard. but now? i try to give the facepaint to the cricket player, but it doesn't work.
??? ??? ???
me again, still lost.
Spoiler
i managed to get to the island. but i'm afraid i need the fishing pole there. and i'm also afraid to get the pole i have to get the sunglasses, the tin.... but absolutley no idea how!
hey, you people out there! it's a great game. download it, play it and help me. it's worth it. (the playing, not the helping me ;))
Spoiler
Go to the far right of the beach. Everything the fisherman wants is there apart from the blue brick; you'll need to go through the jungle for that. :)
agamemnon, thanks.
i got all the stuff.
my problem is to get the fishing pole. don't i need it?
Gee, this seems to be a major bug.
Spoiler
You should HAVE the fishing pole by the time you get to the island.
Let me check some stuff and I'll get back to you.
Spoiler
You have to talk to the cricket player before you can give him the face paint.
I need some help on this too.
Spoiler
I've gotten all of the performers to agree to join in, now what?
Spoiler
Why not go back to the circus tent to wait?
Laverne:
Spoiler
OK, I've double and tripled checked all of the scripts, and I've played the game myself in the way I imagine you must have... it worked fine for me! You should NOT be able to progress in the game until all three of the original circus troupe are gone.
Could you give me some more specific information on the things you did before you made it to the island?
Finished. What an excellent game, one of the better ones on AGS.
kinoko
i did everything (i suppose) exept
Spoiler
the facepaint-tin-fishingpole-thing. i own the circus and i've got the troupe. but just tell me how top get the damn pole and i'll restart
still love the game
@kinoko
i restarted the game and
Spoiler
FIRST went to the circus to get the face paint, than talked to the cricket guy and finally was able to give him the face paint. the first time i played, i talked to the cricket man, the mother and the kids, after that i went to the circus and a little later i wanted to give the paint and it dind't work.
thanks for the game anyway. :D
Yep, that was due to a big bug I just found in the last couple of hours and rectified. I'm just about to reupload the game with a lot of fixes.
Hi
Spoiler
I have got the dog, the wolf head and the fishing rod. I have also got rid of the sealion and Missy at the circus. I tried giving the dog to the old witch type person but it wouldnt let me.
Please help
Spoiler
Hmm, I think the problem here may be that you haven't noticed the cat outside the cottage. THAT's where the dog will help.
You are right. I haven't noticed it.
Can you please tell me where abouts in the garden it is?
Hamish:
Spoiler
The cat is the same color as the fence infront of the 'Kind old granny Meg house'
And i have a question:
Spoiler
what do i need to give to the cricket player for his glasses? I have wolf head, pamphlet i got from the pimp, piece of paper i got from an old man with a stick and 'children' book i got fom Meg.
Look in the circus tent (above the cricket ground) for the item you need.
Oh, I didn't know that you could go there.
Thanx!
Hi
I have got
Spoiler
the wolfhead, the piece of paper from the old man, the colouring book, and the fishing rod
but i dont what to do now.
Can anybody please help?
Spoiler
have you got the poison yet...............if you have you will need to show the paper to someone connected with the circus..........have a look at the paper it may give you a clue
Yes
Spoiler
I have the sleeping potion, if that is what you meant?. So. i have to look at the paper and it will help me with something to do with the circus?
I am loving this game so far but I am kind of stuck. I am sure it is obvious, but I can't figure it out.
Spoiler
I was reading previous posts and everyone talks about this island. How do you get to the island??????????????? I have the wolf head. fishing pole, and coloring book. I already got rid of 2 people in the circus and the seal. Thanks!
a few hints...........
Spoiler
You won't get to island till you have taken over circus................so concentrate on recruiting people for circus - the fishing pole and book you will need later on
Spoiler
dog scares cat gets fur......give fur to witch to get poison........use poison on pie to into bar..........give hairy doll to mother to get bike.......give bike to bear
Spoiler
Show contract to everyone to get them to join circus, you will need children, bear, clown, magician, and girl
I'm stuck
Spoiler
I have the wolf head, fishing rod, hairy doll, and basket of goodies, I have eliminated the seal and got rid of the strong man - how do I get rid of missy?
Spoiler
Give the basket to the pimp. I think he gives you a leaflet thingy, give that to Missy.

Where and when do you get the deed/contract that everyone is talking about?
I have the bike, the fishing pole, wolf, poisoned the pie, spoke to 3 circus people, given bike to bear, seal to fisherman, paint to criket player, spoke to mother and kids, gave glasses to Drew, the seal is gone but I never saw a deed/contract :-[?
QuoteWhere and when do you get the deed/contract that everyone is talking about?
Spoiler
When you manage to remove all the performers (strongman, girl, seal) from the circus, have a talk with the circus leader.
I cant get in the bar now i have poisoned everyone with pie but it says im not going in there they might wake up, so i cant see the mother and children to get the bike for bear - help me
Spoiler
The bike is on the screen to the right of the cricketers. You can just take it without asking. All you get from the bar is a flyer, which should happen as soon as you've poisoned the pie then walked back out of the alley...
Thank you

Thank you
I have completed the game ::) Great Game. Still a few times that my game frozen. I would reload my last game and have finally completed the game. I was disappointed when I saw 'the end'. I say finally but I could have played this game for a couple of extra hours.
Thanks to everyone for their helpful hints.
Hope to see a sequel to this game soon. :)
Okay, I like this game, but I wish that you could at least save it because for some reason every time I get anywhere near getting my own circus or getting onto the actual island I get a message saying fatal error. I've tried downloading several times after I deleted the game from my computer. I've tried many different things. It's just not worth starting over for the 15th time. I've tried over and over again, nothing works. This is the only game I've persued like this; as in actually cared that I finished. It just pisses me off that I can't.
What do you mean you can't save it? ..................press F5 for save and F7 for reload as stated in the read me instructions
Just where do you get the fatal error? I can probably fix it if you give me specific details on it.
how do u get rid of the seal? thanx
Spoiler
You need to give the can of seal meat to the fisherman. To get the can, you need to fix the inventor-guy's eyesight.[/url]
i hav just gotten rid of the seal and i only have a fishing pole what do i do next?
Try using the dog (at the pier) to help the old woman in the cottage with her problem.
thanks.... im stuck again
Spoiler
i have recruited all but kids...i cant give wolf's head to mother...what do i do?
The wolf's head doesn't go with the mother. Try it with little red riding hoodie.
i have
im ages past!!!
i have recruited all but kids......repeat.....
what do i do?
(tim is my bro)
You have to recruit more people in your circus. Have you got Adrastos, Laria, Zanebono and the bear?
how do i get rid of the strongman & how do i get to the island... besides what do i do with the poster the old man gives me
Whoa, whoa, slow down there. You're asking for help for 3 different things there, take it one at a time :P
Spoiler
The answer to the poster thing and the strongman thing are exactly the same, show the poster to the strongman. As for the island, what island?
Spoiler
re the poster............the old man wants you to put it up in the bar - have you done anything to the pie - this will allow you to enter the bar, if you've done that then you need to show it to the strongman
AGA..............that place with sand and water and the jungle ;) ;D ;D
Yes, but he shouldn't know about that yet :P

if i said i recruited them all but the kids, what does that usually mean?
sorry but i've been trying for like 2 hours!!!
Spoiler
the mother wants proof that you will provide them with a good home - have you given her that? When you have shown her proof go back to circus tent and they should all be waiting for you
AWSOME game. ;D I just finished and I laughed my :o off the whole time, expecially the end credits. ehehehe. If anyone didn't watch them, they need to go back and see them.
Since there didn't seem to exist a walkthrough for this awesome game, I wrote my own: http://glarandel.host.sk/misc/cirque.html
I'm pretty sure the game's author said she didn't want a walkthrough written yet, that's why :)
I may be the only one thinking like this but surely the fun of adventure games is trying to work out the puzzles.................it seems a shame that walkthroughs are made for such new games...........when someone has worked so hard to make a new game it makes it tooooo easy! :P
QuoteI'm pretty sure the game's author said she didn't want a walkthrough written yet, that's why :)
From the readme:
"I will not answer emails asking for in-game help. As yet, there is no walkthrough."Seems pretty clear to me.

Good points, but I still think it's everybody's individual choice whether to get help from a walkthrough or not.
I agree. Its like smoking or any other harmful habit. er.....on second thought, maybe smoking isn't the right analogy, but you get my point. (Walkthroughs don't give you cancer or turn your lungs into gooey blobs of tar.) Generally I don't download the newest games and then try and find all the answers for the tough puzzles on the Hints forum before I even begin playing, but I bet some people do. I DO use walkthroughs (when available) when I get really stuck and I don't feel like spending and hour trying to decipher a problem which won't make much sense once I solve it anyway.
As far as walkthroughs go, they are VERY good things which benifet everybody. Why you ask?
1. The player doesn't need to spend hours searching through page after page in the forums to seek the exact thing they have a question to. (because we yell at them if they start a new thread. :D)
2. Players don't need to repeatedly answer the same questions over and over again.
3. I've had this happan to me time and time and time and time again. While searching for the exact hint I need, all the other events in the game which I havn't seen yet become clear from the other questions.
"Hey! Does anyone know how to open the locked door in the secret tunnel under the circus which you can only get to once you pass through the jungle of dispair and desert of ultimate chaos? Because all I have is the pack of condoms and a foam bat."
GAH! I didn't even know there WAS a desert....and now the whole game is spoiled! ;)
and 4........it saves space on the forums so there isn't need of so many threads.
Anyway....thats my little speach. I don't see one thing wrong about walkthroughs or why there shouldn't be one. Its just the same as this hints forum, only alot more efficent. And like smoking, go a head and do it if you want, but don't blow the smoke in my direction. I can buy my own cigerattes if I want to kill the fun.

I agree. Some games are easy and others are not. But depending on your state of mind sometimes what was easy yesterday may not be so clear today. Or may what someone finds easy may not be that easy for someone else.
When you start playing a game, you don't want to miss/bypass anything so walkthrus can be very helpful. Now again you DON'T HAVE TO USE the walkthrus, it's your choice. But I do believe that a walkthru should be available with every new game, when it is still fresh in the author's mind.
For myself, if I am in the middle of a game and concentring on it, and get stuck, I should appreciate it if I can look at my print of the walkthru instead of quitting my game and go search if there are any hints in the forum relating to exactly where I am stuck.
I am submitting these comments in a very friendly way because I REALLY enjoy this forum. I myself feel great when I can help other players but it is frustrating if you get stuck at 1:00 am and there is nobody to read my question until maybe the next day at 8:00 pm. So walkthrus are GOOD and free to USE OR NOT.
I don't mind at all if people write walkthroughs for my game - in fact, kudos to you Glarandel! I'd prefer it if people tried to solve the puzzles themselves but we all need the help of a walkthrough at some point or another. I was too busy living life and fixing all the many bugs that plagued the game's earlier days right after finishing it to write a walkthrough myself. I was always planning on doing it after things calmed down a bit but I have no problems with people takng the initiative themselves.

I have just read the walkthru coz I was stuck on the island. The walkthru said use "house jey" on cover...I have no house key?? where do I get it??
Grand game by the way!! Loved it so far..just one weenie complaint..maybe put on each picture a "walk to XXX". I kept on struggling to find the exit for the circus and other things..so maybe a "walk to cricket ground" or walk to town" etc??
Shot for a fun and great game tho..
still stuck on the cover part/house key on the island!

You're loosing me here. Haven't you been on the Island yet? That's where you will meet this guy and get the key.
Hope this helps. If not, come back and maybe someone else could be of further help. :)
I went to the island..met a guy..who told me to get some stuff...
Got most of the stuff but can't open the cover in the jungle.
Can't talk to the guy on the beach no more..he just tells me to get stuff..of which I'm missing a hat.
I can't get any further..
Hi!
Spoiler
Get the hat from where you got glass, and so on.
About that hatch, don't worry - yet ;-)
thanks!!
I don't know how I could have missed that one!
Don't worry, Farsouth, I missed it too when I played it...
It isn't obvious, as in general they don't let us get stuff from them...
I keep getting a fatal game error which shuts the game down. This time I was smart enough to write it down. It said:(global script line 656) error- RunInventoryInteraction- invalid inventory number. I had just been transported to the castle and was trying to see what I could do to get out of the cage. I think it was the fishing pole. Earlier, It was the deed with the mother. I can restart, no prob, but I thought you might like to know. Thanks. Great game.
That was a problem with the original template I made the game from (so er... not my fault! ^_-).
It has been fixed now though, and you can download the latest (and final version) of the game from the Games page.
I have done everything im supposed to do to get the circus deed but when i talk to the ring master he still says the same thing about being very busy etc. Is this a bug or have i missed something? ???
I've done everything but it wont let me show deed to the magician!
To the both of you: More info, please ^_^ You need to tell me just -what- you've done, instead of saying "everything". Have you both read the walkthrough? Have you both got the latest version, v.1.4? (check the readme file).
How do i get rid of the seal? i have the wolf head, the colouring book and the glasses.
hang on, i got it. Btw, Which one is zanebono?
