Title: Need help with FoA
Post by: DutchMarco on Thu 29/10/2009 21:18:15
Hi All,

Yes, I know, why play that old thing again, well, because it's cool! But it's also difficult, and now I'm enormously stuck. I'm on Crete, (in the team path btw), and I've released the X which marks the spot (see pic) But where does it end up? I can see it flying off teh bottom of the screen, butI don't see it landing anywhere.

Could anyone help me with this? I've got a walkthrough but it doesn't help me with this. I tried exploring that area to see if an X was stuck on the ground, but I couldn't walk reach the area where I thought it would be or it wasn't in any other position I've looked.

You need to do this process twice.   :)

Spoiler
Use camera on the bull head, and also use camera on the bull tail.  Then both lines will cross, and give you a new 'X'.  That's where you need to dig.   ;)

Hope that helps.   8)

Cool, thanks. I've already found the bull's tail, but I have no idea where to found the bull's head you speak of.
Duh! Never mind, I've found it now, right next to the tail (obviously, otherwise the lines  could never cross)

Glad its sorted for you Marco, this is the puzzle that had me stumped for about six months when I first played it!

Me also! I actually had to get the help of a friend to solve it.
