Title: Help with Locked Out
Post by: on Tue 07/09/2004 20:07:58
I picked the ball, grass, flower, screwdriver, pants and used the plate on the broken wires, but don't know what else to do...

Well, you've interupted gameplay for your brother. 
Spoiler
Maybe he could hear you now. Try knocking on the window at the front of the house

Thanks for answering, but I already did that and nothing happens! I don't know why... Maybe it's a bug or something...

When you started the game did you try there first?
Spoiler
I think you have to establish at the beginning that he can't hear you because of gameplay - then it makes sense to interrupt that!

I restarted the game doing that and it was then ok!  :)

Look through the flower beds, using the eye cursor.

By the way, I've encountered a bug which stops you from winning the game.

Spoiler
I short the circut with the licence plate but when I go knock on the window, it still says the guy is playing his game.

You have to

follow the path from the backyard, down to the shed. There you will find some useful objects.

To get rid of the guy:

Hint:
Spoiler
Take another look through the garage.
[close]

solution:
Spoiler
You need the car magazine from the garage. It's the 'flat object' on the table, it's located around the middle-left of the screen. You give it to the guy to distract him.

So far I got pants from clothes line and screwdrive from shed.
Each time I interect table inside shed, a text come "there seems to be something" but I can't interact with. It would be great to have a light switch in shed thought!

Now is very something on table?

How can I enter garage?

You can't get into the garage, as far as I know. I never got in there but I couldn't finish the game, I got a bug.

Well, Goo,!

how do you know about mazagine if you can't get into garage?

Oops, I'm sorry Goo!

The magazine is in the shed at lower left!
I did give magazine to that other guy, used screwdriver with licence plate.

I also used licence plate on broken wire. Obviously that should have cut  power in house so Jack can quite playing computer game but it didn't.

At very beginning, I knock on window in front of house and Jack is playing computer game and tried once again after using licence plate on broken wire. That a bug I say!

If I'm thing the wrong way, please let me know whoever.

Yes, I think it is a bug. That happened to me too.
