Dear Oprah Winfrey:

I was stuck there too, till I finally found something very useful on that &%($/#/ pile of trash: just check every pixel of that trash very carefully: it's donw left, I suppose, I played it some time ago.
I will start playing it again today or tomorrow and try to write a walkthru to be available soon at

Hope I've been of some help.

Dear Oprah Fan,

Thanks for your timely reply!!  i think you and I are the only two people to ever play this game.  It seems like all the games written by "juncmodule" have hard to find pixels.  I had to quit the Tom Hanks game just for that reason; the pixel hunt was too frustrating.  Unfortunately, I think I will delete Keptosh as well-it hasnt really grabbed my attention enough to put up with these kind of annoyances.  And come and see my show live!!  The tickets are free girlfriend, and I always give out gifts!!

Hi again, Oprah Winfrey!

You're welcome!

I just had problems with Keptosh when suddenly all colours changed from time to time, maybe due to a bug. Whatever, I loved to play Keptosh. Pls don't give up so soon, it's a fine game!

As I don't know how to hide text, here's another hint: go left of pile of junk and enter door. Talk to old man. Pay attention to what he wants. Then go back to junk pile again and now you'll find a useful item on the left part of the junk. Use look icon to find it, then hand one to grab it. 
Always use eye icon first on Keptosh.

Now I'm stuck trying to find what old man asked for: I don't already remember how I did it the first time...  :-[
I'm sure I used the search option of hints & tips forum, placed keptosh and read all hints and tips. ;-) We weren't the only ones to play it  :)

Thanks a lot for your invitation!

Here are some hints...

The junk pile thing is a bug. It tells you to search it a little too early on I think.

Thanks for playing.

later,

Dear Juncmodule:

Thanks for helping us both! It's a pleasure playing Keptosh! I also loved to play the demo of Keptosh 2, it seems it'll become a great game!

I just keep having problems (on that demo too) with colours: they change from time to time, and - sometimes - those new colours get too light or a little blurred, and not too agreable at view. Just reload doesn't work, must quit  game and then start it again or reload a saved one.

My pc is an Intel 4 - 2,44 GHz; Win XP Pro and graphics one is a 32 MB NVIDEA (Riva TNT, I suppose). I bought a new one (64 MB), but it's not installed yet. Is that a bug those sudden colour changings? It just happens with two games: Keptosh I and Keptosh demo.

Thanks a lot for your link! :-)

That's very odd.

I can only assume it's an error with AGS somehow. I have no control over anything that would cause that in a game. I have encountered a similiar problem with Keptosh, but assumed it was my crap video card.

Since Keptosh was compiled with a much older version of AGS I can only assume that it has been fixed (there is little since in reporting it to Chris unless if new versions exhibit the same behavior). My only other theory is that somehow Scorpiorus's CCS plug-in is causing it.

eh, anyway, thanks for playing!

Dear Juncmodule:

I'd like to be - but unfortunately I'm not - more helpful, as I'm a "F" (FAILURE :-[) with all kind of graphic design / issues / etc. Hope you may get some info from technical / or else forums (whose I don't even read, they're Martian for me: ???).

Hey. I've been enjoying Keptosh1,got the object with the disk the old dude wanted and returned it to him (guy with robot cat) I stopped playing there for a bit, but want help for the big part, getting into Servecor to help his girlie Nesa (?) Are there ANY hints or walkthroughs for this game and where can I find Keptosh2?? Thank you.
