Title: OROW 8

The Butler
Spoiler
The doctor and the brother are dead, I think I tried all objects. Do I need to somehow open the closet?

Yep you do. Use the book on the bookshelf that constitutes a separate hotspot. It's on the left edge of the bookshelf.

If you have further trouble accomplishing that (I know I did),
Spoiler
To keep the closet open, use the rope on the book.

What do you have to do in The Crystal Ball? I can't do anything, and only get an answer when clicking on the line of people outside the tent.

I was stumped there too at first. It uses a verb coin interface, so just hold down the left mouse key over a hotspot.

Stuck in The Butler:

Spoiler
Detective, Doctor Horse, Brother and Wife are now dead. I have tried all the possibilities but neither is the game progressing nor is someone dying. 8-0

What does the note say about the mistress?
[close]

Spoiler

She's a gold-digger! Ok, then, anything shiny in the room she would appreciate?

Spoiler

The gems on the knight's shield look nice. How can you pry them out?

Spoiler

Using the bone from the skeleton...

Tzachs, I appreciate your help. But here is the main problem:

Spoiler
I can't find any hotspot on the skeleton. Neither game fires clicks on the skeleton nor it allows any objects to be used. A bug, maybe?

I don't know, it was visible for me. Sort of in the middle of the skeleton.

Just finished it by:

Restarting the game. Quickly doing all the things. This time I didn't try to close the closet after the wife's death and the hotspot worked! :P

Thanks again for your help, tzachs. :)

FlyPaper shuts down completely after showing the screen with all that F*ck up lines running the front credits - although I varied the graphic settings.

I am stuck in Mi.

Spoiler
The puzzle where we put 4 items under a "Descending" sign. What should they descend for? Number of vertices? It didn't work.

Gord10:

It's the order of the colors on the panel next to the cat..
Either left to right or right to left, try them both.

Gord10,
Spoiler
Yes, it actually is the number of vertices. With circle counting as 0 and the moon counting as 2.

I were also stuck in MI because of that puzzle; I figured it out reading it here. To Gord10 and anyone else, here is the complete solution:
Spoiler
Shapes have to be placed in the descending order in terms of Vertices. Square has 4, Triangle has 3, Crescent has 2 (never knew before reading here) and Circle has 1 or 0 vertice (not sure, though). Now, you very well know what to do next ;).

Frosch:

That was my reaction too. Its the most f*cked up game I have ever played :D.

Was also stuck there, didn't think of looking at the symbol though :P
I have the vine, now what?

Edit:
Nevermind. In case anybody else is stuck there:
Spoiler
go to the top left and use it with the broken edge.

Kanji Gakusei

Spoiler
get the last / mountain kanji?

Stee:

Spoiler
You have to take the impression of sign which contains kanji word for mountain
[close]

Spoiler
Paper is mandatory for the impression
[close]

Spoiler
Then you need to find something to take impression on paper.
[close]

Spoiler
How can you do that? Look closely into the extinguished fire place

Trying to get through the games quickly so that I can vote in time, only "The rebirth" left but I'm stuck:

Spoiler
I have the bust, the wire and obviously the cell phone. It seems like I should try and get the panel open but I can't find a way to do so. The standard tactic of using everything on everything doesn't seem to work, so I seem to be missing something.
