You have to look at the notice at reception.

jane · Fri 30/09/2005 08:52:27

Wretched - can you confirm that if you don't have the letter in to early you won't find the key?Ã,Â don't worry......

Spoiler

I have gone back to a previous game and now got the key ...Doh! I guess if you have posted the letter then he collects the key[\hide]

Spoiler

can someone tell me if I'm thinking correctly that the rusty key that is to be found in the office will fit the wardrobe? If so how the heck do I get in the office? I have cigarette - which I can't light - have asked everyone, I had a thought that I had to use cigarette in some way to get key from coat, I also have umbrella, sheet, cup, room keys, carrot and magazine [\hide]

Just a couple of pointers.

Spoiler

Can you remember what the barmaid said happened to her last year.

Fisher's Cup

Fisher · Fri 30/09/2005 12:28:37

I can't find anything! Please help me..... I'm losing my mind.

I have been in the same spot since yesterday afternoon!

(I just have to say, again, I love your style, Wretched! You are so talented.......)

Ahhhh, that feels good.....

Wretched · Fri 30/09/2005 12:31:57

Thanks, Wretched!

I've tried all places EXCEPT one......

*wiping the sweat from her brow, she returns to the game......*

jane · Fri 30/09/2005 12:46:34

PLEASSSSSSSSSE help me........before I go mad! Have been on this game for hours trying to light the cigarette.............can I have a hint?

Also been to the girl on the swing and she says she doesn't like cigarettes even before I ask her........have I done something wrong here?

Wretched · Fri 30/09/2005 12:57:40

Jane,
I posted your hints about 5 posts ago, but mistakenly put Rosie's name at the top, sorry.
And thanks, there was a line of code missing in the girl on swing dialog, nothing of immportance.
Generally I'm happy to help with problems that I know have been solved, but I'd prefer the game to be completed without my handing out solutions. Sorry if this is frustrating but it is very valuable feedback to learn which bits are too hard or badly designed so that I can improve in future.

jane · Fri 30/09/2005 13:47:22

Thanks wretched..............I have tried Fishers cup and remember what she says but still can't progress.

BTW I think its an absolute brilliant game and the puzzles pure genius.........absolutly hate it when I have to announce defeat - but this time it has me beat

No. I gave the receptionist the letter that the sister in the pool gave me, and I just found the key to 203.Ã,Â

Anyway, What is the key I found in the office for??
And how did you get the umbrella???
and the cigarettes..... She is sleeping, but I make noise with my wet feetÃ,Â and she wakes up. And the staircase to floor 2 is still unavailable so I guess I cant use the key yet??
Any help is appreciated

With regards to stealing the cigarettes-

Spoiler

You're going to need the umbrella to keep from getting wet. It's in the attic, so you're going to need access to the second floor. I think the rusty may have something to do with one of the rooms on the second floor. Take stefano's advice- compare the picture in the magazine to your own room- can you spot the difference? YOu'll have access to the second floor.

Trish · Fri 30/09/2005 14:05:09

By the way, I think I found a bug:

Spoiler

After you give the girl in 102 back her engagement ring and she leaves to tell Sandrianne, if you look at the blotter on the nightstand and then exit the view, the girl is back on the ned and the dialoque is back to before you found/gave her the ring.

Wretched · Fri 30/09/2005 14:11:13

Trish,
Thanks, I'll mend that asap.
By the way you do know about the office bug and as a work around, that you mustn't use anything from the office until you get the office key.

Trish · Fri 30/09/2005 14:11:40

Looks everyone stop trying to get the croquet hoop to make a hook. I just got it:

Spoiler

You have to give the girl in room 102 back her ring. then, walk on down to the croquet place. The girl there will be gone, and the croquet hoop is there for the taking.

Trish · Fri 30/09/2005 14:12:59

Well yeah, I knew that. I just had already dropped the peel before reading that post, and I clicked on the banister to see what would happen.

Wretched · Fri 30/09/2005 14:15:12

Ok. Could you hide those hints

Trish · Fri 30/09/2005 14:15:19

Eh, I had to restart the game from a earlier saved game cuz I accidentally asked th girl in the chair for a light anyway.

jane · Fri 30/09/2005 14:18:03

Trish................pleasssssssse don't tell us all toooooooo much - just little hints will do. Its such a brilliant game and a shame to spoil it.

Stefano · Fri 30/09/2005 15:02:42

Did a coulpe of things. Dunno if I'll get the ring this way.

Spoiler

- got spider from the shed.
- went to cellar
- lit cigar
- got room 203 wet
- it leaked and room 103 is soaked too
And yet, there's "carnal exercise" in there... maybe the guest in this room is a fish.

Did anyone go any further?

Trish,

Spoiler

how did you get the ring?
