i have a
Spoiler
sponze and sodium carbonate.
but i'm not sure what to do now. please help.
Spoiler
it seems i have to use the sodium with painting, but he says he can't yet.
Spoiler
also, i managed to open the lock by sure luck on the 1st try, just randomly selecting pins. ;D but are there any hints for the combination that i missed.
Spoiler
Use the sodium carbonate on the sponge
And the lock is actually a random puzzle, and it's been quite annoying to some people. :P I'll make it more straight foward in an update or something.
Thanks for playing :)
So...
About that lock...
How does it work? Cause I tried all combinations (after all it's only 0 and 1...) and nothing worked... I can't seem to find something to press in order to check if the wardrobe is open. Or do I have to simply get out the wardrobe and see if it worked?
BTW, great game, and great music. Did you write the music?
Random lock combinations with no clues. Do you hate us that much?

it doesn't seem to work. must the sponge be wet first? it doesn't do anything when i use it with the taps. at the moment it says "solid sponze" when i look at it, but when i try using the sodium with the sponge there is no reply. :-\
A random lock? Now, that's just not fair on the player. Some of us have better things to do than try 128 combinations.
Let us know when you've fixed it, please. Perhaps you could:
Spoiler
make the clicks different for the right tumblers (although this would make it far too easy).
Another idea: hide a key somewhere that is broken so you can't put it in the lock, but that you can examine to see the pattern required.
I guessed the lock-code, but don't remember it completely.
Spoiler
three pins were down, I think none were next to each other and the leftmost was one of three down ones.

Ditto, except mine says "soiled sponge" :P
You have to

use the chemical on the taps, not the sponge. Though I agree that the other way should work too.
Yes, the...
Spoiler
Sodium Carbonate needs to be diluted first, and then used on the sponge. I'm looking into putting some "No, not like that." type messages into the object interactions. It'll be fixed in ver 1.1 ;)
As for the lock...
Spoiler
Yeah, I screwed up there. I need some kind of way for the player to know they're on the right track. It'll be in the update. :P
The lock, from left to right

Fabulous game, can't wait for the next bit!

Phone?

Where do I find

Paolo, have you looked everywhere?

Answer:

look in the garbage bag

I still have not found the phone and am ready to give up. I have looked everywhere. The one bluish object that looks like it could be a phone is not a hotspot, so I cannot figure out what I am missing.

it is a light blue object, half hidden by the lower border of the picture. So you can't see it clearly. Turn around *slowly* and leave the mouse pointer at the lower edge. Took me also two minutes to find it.

I can see it, it just won't come up as a hot spot. Maybe I need to reinstall.
It's down the chair near the window.
Saints be praised, the phone (and other problems) will be fixed in version 1.1, which will be available sometime...TONIGHT! Yes, from tonight onwards you WILL see the phone, in all it's glory! Keep an eye on the Completed Games thread. ;)
Sorry didn't men to post two times.
Thanks for fixing it LimpingFish. I really like the game though.

Everythings fixed! See the Completed Games thread. :)
Well I gave up. still can't get the phone when I click on it and no sponge.
Oh well.
The sponge is in...
Spoiler
The wardrobe.
The phone IS there, really. :P
Are you playing the version 1.1? Downloaded from FileFront?
Yes I got the new one and I can see the phone but there is no name highlight for it at the top when I move mouse over it and not click a able.
I can't get into

The wardrobe. as I can't find the lock to open it?
Well, see, here's the problem...
The wardrobe is locked, but maybe you should...
Spoiler
Once you've tried the wardrobe door, check under the sink.
As for the phone...
Spoiler
You only need to use it when it rings. When it rings, you'll be able to interact with it ;)
Hope this helps. :)

I downloaded the new version and thought "crap" because I still could not get a hotspot for the phone, but it was my bad all along.
Spoiler
I had not realized just how many tapes there were to watch and that the phone would ring. I should have known better because most of the other hotspots disappeared when they were no longer useful and the projector's had not. I did not read your hint until I actually figured this out for myself. I was busy eating turkey at my mother in laws
I look forward to seeing more. Redoing the lock puzzle was a huge improvement. The graphics were wonderful. Great job!!
Got it . i didn't understand the end but I did finish the game :)
Great, Kediri, thanks. I worked it out straight away from your hint and didn't even have to look at the answer!
Limping fish, wow cool game and your graphics are very cool. I love these kind of games with mystery and intrigue. Are you panning on creating another game, this time longer? I thnk it would be a hugh hit with everyone!!
Thanks, desimaui. :)
Yeah, a longer game is in the works at the moment. Might take a while, though :P
Thanks for playing.
