Has anyone played this game? If so can you let me know how to keep the swing door to kitchen open so that Rufus can go through.
You need to get into the Dojo first.
i've been there, but i didn't find anything there.
Look at the door.
Quote from: nickeedoo
Grandma won't let me in the kitchen, I've opened the vent but I can't stick anything in the vent. I've got some batteries. Oh, I'm going to bed. Grrrr
Spoiler
I never had Grandma lock me out of the kitchen...
Try interacting with the vent in various ways (forget your inventory).
You will know what the batteries are for when you need them.
To go to bed, first find your bedroom.
OK, there's a couple of things I could ask, but I'll start with...
I'm in the dojo, found the doorstop, but the instructor won't let me take it. What am I missing?
Ashen:
Spoiler
The instructor only notices you take the doorstop because the door closes. Find something nearby to keep the door open.
Cheers. I think that was the one thing in the dojo I hadn't messed with. It's so obvious when some tells you, isn't it?
A couple of questions:
1. I've released the bird from the cage, sent mom upstairs to clean up, gave the old nut's cane back and used the doorstop on the door to keep it open. However, as soon as the cat gets to the door it runs straight back to the laundry room, even though the door is open wide... What's up with that?
2. How do I get the glue gun? The walkie talkie seems to notice my presence every time I try to enter the construction site...
Dookie,
1. Sounds like a bug, unless... has grandma made the brownies yet?
2.
Spoiler
Have you gotten rid of the labourer yet?
damn, i am really everywhere stuck. How do i get distraction in that dojo? i have that cutting bord, that bottle with ketchup, and that cooling box. And how do i get into that 25 fittnes shit? And how do i get that worker disctracted or something? damn, i am really stuck :(.
Remco:
25 hour fitness:
Spoiler
Have you picked up the free pass from the dojo?
To get rid of the labourer
Spoiler
, you need to make him think he's had an accident.
less subtle:
Spoiler
Use the ketchup on the labourer
And I need to know...
Spoiler
Any clues on how to get the instructor to stay out of the dojo? EDIT: Never mind, sorted it.
Finally finished!
*goes back to sleep*
Spoiler
To keep the dojo door open , push the chair. To get the coffee from the guy , I think I had to use the mass stuff on him instead of the coffee itself...but it would've made more sense if the animation happened from trying to use the stuff on the coffee , not the guy. After keeping the kitchen door open with the door stop and giving Grandma the coffee , get mom out of the way by opening the cage ...pushing sunflower..and using the seeds you picked up on the bird...then tell mom that the bird got out of the cage...go downstairs and then to the washing room and chase the cat...eventually the cat will get into the kitchen and then you can steal the Brownies. Oh , yeah , the cutting board and cooler...talk to the dojo trainer and he will get knocked out after trying to break the board. I can't remember what the cooler was for. Overall a great looking game but frustrating and buggy.
Dojo:
subtle hint:
Spoiler
To get into to dojo, you need to get someone to come out. How could you get them a message?
total spoiler:
Spoiler
Use the greasy sponge on the door on the air conditioner in the alley. Open the door, then talk to the opening. (no, really)
25 hour gym:
subtle hint:
Spoiler
To get into the gym properly, you need membership or an appointment. Where else have you seen the fitness professional?
spoiler:
Spoiler
Inside the dojo, there's a display with free trail memberships. Take one, and use it back at the gym. The Kaboom! mass powder's for something else.
Nevermind. Ashen has given the hints at the bottom. *laughs*
How do I
Spoiler
get the hearing aid
I have
Spoiler
gotten the special ingredient for the brownies, got into the Dojo and the health place, etc
bspeers, have you:
Spoiler
Spoken to your brother? And do you have the doorstop?
If so:
Spoiler
Prop the kitchen door open, get Mom out of the way, and chase Rufus into the kitchen. Grandma should leave, and you can take the brownies.
Kara:
Spoiler
You just need to use up more hot water.Set the dishwasher and the washing machine going on hot loads.
Am I stupid? I'm still trying to leave the first floor through some window, but I fail miserably. I've got the blanket-rope, dexcalibur and the dice... What do I have to dooo? Pleeease help me... this game is so great. I want to see more.
Darn, I think, I reall AM stupid... :P
Can anyone tell me how to get grandpa's cane from the bird? Thanks
Herr Stein:
Spoiler
Have you got the window open yet? If not, you need to clean the gunk of the lock first, then use Dexcaliber to force it open. Then, you'll need something sturdy to tie the blanket-rope to.
tvcooper2001:
Spoiler
You need to make a slingshot to scare the bird. Something from Jackson's room and the guest room make the slingshot.
Scroll down for less subtle:

Get the dice from Jackson's desk, and the bra from the guest room dresser.
I have gotten Grandpa upstairs but I can't get Thurston out of the shower no matter how much I try, I have turned the dishwasher on and I have turned the washingmachine on. I have them both on hot water but Thurston's still in the shower.
Please help because im really stuck hereÃ, :P
Nippo, I can't think why that is, unless:
Spoiler
Are you sure the dishwasher is running, and not just set to hot? And try setting the washing machine to large load.
I am having a similiar problem with the shower situation. Though...
Spoiler
..I have the washing machine set to "hot" and "large load", but when I "Use" the dishwasher to turn it on, it says "Its not on".
Have I left something out?Ã, ???
A-hA! Yes! It worked now, there was something wrong before because I tried switching the washingmachine to large load but it didnt move, maybe it was me doing something wrong. :-[
Anyway, it worked, thanx alot!
ida:
Spoiler
You need to click the little 'tab' under the dishwasher buttons to turn it on.
Thank you very much! I didn't even see that ::)

You need to get into the Dojo first.
How do you open the hatch? (my inventory: excalibur, sponge, knife, bra, newspaper, hanger, ).
I cannot 'grease' the sponge on stew (too hot), cannot start dishwasher (it's not on), cannot get my brother out of bathroom, cannot send my mother upstairs and get the cat in kitchen,
so far I managed to get the cane and give it to grandpa but cannot find his hearing aid. I got the washing machine running, cannot get ketchup or napkins (I suppose to use on construction worker), cannot get glue gone.
I'm just going around in circles but without getting ahead.
Can anyone help? I have read the 2 pages of 'hints' but cannot do anything. ??? :'(

Have you looked in the Completed Games Forum for No-Action Jackson?
There are quite a few hints there for things that you haven't been able to do yet. It's normally where I check first when I get stuck! ;D
The link is

Thanks. I had started reading that forum but thought it was only to report bugs or to compliment the author, so I never read through the 4 pages.
I am a bit confused though. Shouldn't all these questions/hints be in the 'hints' forum? I would never have thought of looking there. Is it the same for every game or was that unusual? ???
Again I thank you, I really enjoy this game even if I get stuck quite often ;)

I read that there is a small 'tab' under the bottons of the dishwasher ??? I must have spent at least 3-4 hours messing (using) with the dishwasher with no success. >:( Could this be a bug? I have tried the bottons on the left then the ones on the right, above the stew. Could anyone give me a precise spot so that I can go on with the game ???
So many of you have completed this game so I guess you did not get stuck with the dishwasher. Does it make a difference if I got the washing machine working first? Do I have to use the dryer also after I got the quarter?
I am getting so frustrated. :-X :-X
Sunshinegold,
Spoiler
The small tab is at the bottom left of the panel where you select the High Temp Scrub button. Click on it and it slides to the right and turns the dishwasher on.

Thank you SOO MUCH :D I just could not see that tab. I think the more you look at something the less you see it. :-[
Now I'm still stuck: :-\
I got my brother out of shower but he won't give me the hearing aid unless I get him some brownies and I know grandpa will give me $$$ after I give him his hearing aid!!!!
I can't get the secret ingredient for the brownies unless I give the guy in the park something from Fitness shop. I cannot buy anything.... I don't have $$$$. So cannot buy hotdog and get ketchup and napkin.
I can't exchange junk food with gameguy for his cooler....
I can't get the cat in kitchen, get grandma out and get brownies because they are not done.
I went into fitness shop, gave my free pass, but cannot go nowhere and will not use the fitness ball????
I might be missing just one thing but I don't know what :-[
And how do get walkie-talkie???
I'm telling you, I love this game, but I'm completly stuck.
Hi to all!
Sunshinegold:
I'm also stuck on that game! Fine and a few - at least are funnyÃ, - bugs, bug a phenomenal one and with really tough puzzles, as they've been too well conceived and "linked".
I couldn't get
Spoiler
that $1 grandpa will give you - to buy hotdog -, as I couldn't get coffee for grandma, or hearing unit for grandpa: cookies for annoying bro, but don't have tyhem yet.
Couldn't get doorstep from dojo, as I don't have that damned $1 to get ketchup to use on worker, to get his glue machine (to use on fitness center), and his walkie talkie to use on vent to distract judo instructor and finally get that doorstep. And so on!
GE, this game reminds me Day of the Tentacle, when a single wrong step would ruin the entire progression on the game! And even knowing WHAT you must do, you still do not knowing HOW to perform - some - of the tasks!
Here's what I already managed to get:
Spoiler
Eg got cd player, and batteries. Got cane. Got bro's sponge and robe. Opened Dojo's vent and entered in. Got seeds from guest room sunflower, used them with Knuckles, and mom is now upstairs.
I'm in a vicious circle, and struggled with my brains, they ran away from me alotta times, but I managed to gotcha them again. But I'm stuck too, as some of you...
Please, if anyone knows what
Spoiler
must be poured or else in pedestrian's coffee, share it, ok?! :-)
sunshine:
Spoiler
Go to fitness center. Look at the sign on table for the Kaboom. Open newspaper, should have the ad for free sample. Give ad to instructor. Get free sample of Kaboom and use it on the guy in the park. Pick-up chocolate/caffiene that is in drink holder. Give this to Grandma. She will start making the brownies then. If i remember correctly, I think you can grease the sponge at this point. You next need to work at getting her out of the kitchen which involves using the doorstop from Dojo. Maybe the other hints will help you at this point.

Ok Primus. You got in Dojo. Push chair and get door stopper.
If you activated the washing machine and dishwasher to 'hot' and 'scrub', then you go back upstairs and talk to brother. He will finally leave the shower.
I missed the part about 'opening the newspaper' maybe now I will go a little further in the game.
How did you get the bathrobe? and why do you need it? ??? and where did you get the batteries? ???
Thanks a lot, Cittymom, I read it already, you should have posted it while I was posting mine(s) for you.

I thought I was going to loose my eyesight last night, I spent more than 3 hours trying to turn on the dishwasher and I had read there was a tab to push, but I just never saw it. : :-[
Kidding aside, I think this game is great.
Hi was just joking, but I thought I'd run off with coffee at home, and I'll start eating my fingers, nails were already gone... and this urticaria, is making me crazy!...
I didn't think I'd NEVER cry and pray for help each two minutes, but... never say never again. Pls, Sunshinegold:
How
Spoiler
lead Grandpa upstairs, so Rufus can go to kitchen - without the hearing unit yet?!...
and was use shower curtain... Sorry for that, kb was so confused as myself.
Ok, to help all the people who is stuck in this game, I'll tell you what to do the moment you exit the house to where I am stuck.
Spoiler
When you exit the house, you should go to the 25 hr fitness and read the advertisement.
After that, go back to your house and enter the laundry room. Open the dryer and pick up the quarter.
Go to the construction site and insert the quarter into the coin slot in the vending machine.
Open the machine and pick up a newspaper. Look at it and a coupon for the Kabooom!! stuff should apper in your inventory.
Reenter the 25 hr Fitness and give the coupon to the guy at there. Pick up the Kaboom! stuff.
Exit, go to the park and use it on the guy. After the little cut-scene, pick up the bottle of coffee.
Go back to your house and enter the kitchen. Give the super mocha coffee to the Grandma.
Then, go up the stairs into the guest room and open the drawers.
Pick up the bra and use the dice on it.
Go to the park and use the bra on the bird.
Pick up the cane and return it to the Grandpa. Go back downstairs to the couch and pick up the knife.
Some other stuff I did was picking up the sponge in the bathroom and using it on the pot. I also took the disc player and got the CD-R and batteries.

can you tell me how i can get into the dojo?
Ithink i have to use the walkie talkie on the vent, but i can't get it.
Hi again, Me!
Yes, you must
Spoiler
use walkie-talkie with vent, then enter; use bath robe before? after? instructor goes outside to be taken as another student.
To get walkie talkie, must get ketchup - buy hotdog and get ketchup at park - and then use ketchup on worker so he thinks he is hurt ;-) he leaves and you can get walkie talkie and glue (this for use on machine for glueing fitness pro ;-) and you can go inside it.
I'm trying now using ketchup on worker, but not successful yet. Maybe I should shut up that annoying guy first, here I'm lost...
Also happy for maybe have helped you too :D
Primus,

Squirt the worker with the ketchup when he turns his head to the side.....so he won't "see" you doing it!

Oh thanks Primus, i know what to do now, except the Grandpa can't give me the dollar :'(
Hi, Jane! I'm green of envy! Didn't finish it yet...
Pls:

how can I use glue with weights for glueing that fitness pro? Can't use it, always without action inside that room.
Hi, Me!
Spoiler
Have you got cd player from gameshop? Have you open it twice to get batteries? Have you used batteries with hearing unit? HAve you gave him hearing unit? Have you talked to him after that? Have you looked at inventory?
PS: give hotdog to gamekeep in exchange of cooler - don't know what it will be for yet.
Damn, I hadn't had so many stupidly wrong stormbrains since I had to play Day of the Tentacle for over a month before finishing it!...

Grandpa cannot give you $ because he can't hear you. Give him his hearing aid.
And to get Rufus in the kitchen, you need to keep the door open. He will not go in until the brownies are ready. And you have to get GRANDMA out of kitchen not GRANDPA. ;)

[/spoiler]Have you used sponge with vent opening outside dojo? Have you talked to opening?
Second time: use walkie talkie with opened vent, then watch scene, go inside and use robe. Later talk to master and convince him to break a board - yes, the one from kitchen! ;-)[/spoiler]
Uff, sorry, Sunshinegold: here's the hint to get walkie-talkie:

Place yourself on right of worker; when he looks at his left, use ketchup on him: it's also at old posts at this page - 3 - how to do it; then get walkie talkie twice and glue too.

Inside Dojo, near door, look at sign: take free card for a fitness personal training lesson; at fitness center, when you can, use glue with a machine - weights, i think - , and when teacher uses it, glued!!!

Yes, I finished it. I agree with you. I think the game - altough a beta version - deserved another ending: too abrupt after all that action!
A trick: go to full lenght games http://www.agsforums.com/games.php?category=1 , look at pics, read the synopsis, try to visit the sites (if there are any), and then download and try them out: I found alotta 5 star games this way.
AGSFORUMS games I'm sure you'll like:
- Tómate un Descanso (Take a Break) - with Eng Translation;
- Uncertainty Machine;
- Masters of Sound;
- Frank the Farmhand;
- Flashbax;
- Night of the hermit;
- The Mistery of the Haunted Hollow;
- Buccaneer (too short but good stuff);
- Apprentice;
- 5 o'clock lock;
- Bestowers of Eternity;
- Scythe Island (download at link from finished games forum);
- Donnie Darko;
- Cirque de Zale;
- Beyond Reality;
- The Secret of Carver Island - I and 2;
I could post alotta more, but hope these ones are enough for now.
I've links for downloading free adventure games besides this one, and besides AGS, but won't post them here, I'm sure I'd break forum rules, and so on.

After this one, Cirque de Zale, 5 1/2 days, Frank the Farmhand, Beyond Reality, it is hard to find another one so entertaining ( I am not putting down any other game that I have also enjoyed). It's just that I would kinda like to stick to this type of game that's why I was asking for a suggestion :)

Tómate un Descanso: I've finished it already, and Apocolipse or Apocolypse Vel (I'm stuck at its end), Scythe Island... Almost all from the list of my last post are as good as and simillar to No Action Jackson: and hope you like them as I did.
Hmm, I still need some help.

I now understand what to do when I get the hearing aid, but Thurston refuses to give it to me until I give him some brownines. However, the Grandma didn't even start and talks about how she is still chopping the veggies.
I understand that you have to get Rufus to sneak in for you to steal her brownies and that you need to use some doorstop from the dojo to open the door.
I suppose I get a dollar in return for the hearing aid, ketchup and hot dog in return for the dollar, and a walkie talike by using the ketchup. The walkie talkie gets me into the dojo where I think the doorstop is. And the doorstop helps me get the brownies which helps me get the hearing aid.
Is something wrong? The puzzles are looping.

1. Have you given grandma the secret ingredients to start the brownies?
2. Then you jam the door with the doorstop you got from Dojo.
3. You get a dollar in return for a working hearing aid. Not for ketchup and hotdog. Guess what you do with the dollar ;)
4. Yes the walkie-talkie helps you to get the doorstop and the doorstop helps you get the brownies which help you get the hearing aid ;)
Hope this helps you. If not, ask again but I'm sure you will go ahead with this. ::)
Hmm, umm, I gave Grandma the secret ingredient, but I can't find the doorstop. I can't get into the dojo.

Did you get your brother out of the shower? If yes, what did you pick up? Use the sponge in the kitchen.... then use it on the hatch. :)
Hi, Me:
To enter Dojo...
Spoiler
use sponge with pan in kitchen; use it with vent, outside Dojo; talk to vent.
gah, i'm super stuck....

If you are in the sauna, you have to cool him off. Does pouring water over coals sounds like a good idea ???
How can i get the walkie talkie? The walkie talkie says
"Keep your hands of me".
Hi!
Spoiler
Insist and you'll get it.
Almost... almost done...
Spoiler
How do you get Morry out of the Sauna?
How do I get the TV to work in the shop. I have tried to change the wires but nothing happens
Hi, Sheena!
It's a bit tricky, that one!Ã, :D
Spoiler
(you must already have hanger)
- look at tv;
- look at device under tv;
- pull both wires (cable wire and tv wire);
- use hanger with signal in;
- connect (use) tv wire with tv out;

Let's just say he would not enjoy freezing ;) So pour something over the coals. ;)
Well I'm super stuck..
How do I get the brownies? How do I get Rufus into the kitchen? He keeps running back to the laundry room coz of the vacuum cleaner.
How do I get CD player?? I tried picking it up, opening it,etc. The gamekeeper won't let me have it.
I have Thurston out of the shower now and the kitchen is propped open.
Hi, Farsouth!

Spoiler
Rufus must enter in kitchen and after the confusion you'll may enter and get 'em.
Rufus in kitchen:
Spoiler
Enter dojo, push or pull door and get doorstep.
Use doorstep with kitchen door.
Must "push rufus to kitchen, but before you must get mom out of your way, and granddad too. If you need hints on this, pls post.

Hey Girlfriend!!
Its me, Oprah again!!
I was just wondering about the newspaper....is there a specific time you have to get it in order to get the coupon out of it? I realize that if you dont do things in a specific order in this game, you can get stuck....I've tried "open newspaper, look at newspaper, ect." but it never works....i know the coupon for a free sample is in there from previous post, but it just wont let me get it....i figure i have to go to the dojo first, then the gym....ive looked at the advertisement, the display, and all i ever get is "hehehe those arent free" from the gym guy.....any suggestions? Oprah is lost!!
That's odd.
I just opened the newspaper and got the coupon.
Are you sure it's not in your inventory somewhere?
Maybe you're right about having to do things in order, but I doubt it.
It could be a bug - this is still a beta version of the game.
yeah, i finally figured it out....i wasnt looking oat things with the right mouse button. i was only using the commands and left-clicking...apparently, you can miss a lot of info if you dont right click things....like talking to people or examining things......i examined the display and THEN i could get the coupon after the display stated it was in the paper......what a bafoon!! but thats why im Oprah!!
Hi there!
Oprah Winfrey:
You're right, sometimes it's necessary to perform some actions and/or use items just after you've got a hint about it. Eg, if you open the newspaper before you read the sign about those energy pills, you may not be able to find the free coupon. And so on! It worked that way for me, too!"
Steve McCrea:
I'm sure youv'e read that sign in fitness center before. No, I don't think there's a/some bug(s) about it, the few bugs are other ones.
Hmm...
Spoiler
I've got Morry out of the Fitness Center, but I can't figure out how to get the other kid out of the Dojo. I assume I need a board for the instructor to break... but where do I find it?

Sorry but I don't understand; which gunk/lock are you talking about ???
Hi, Porchbeast!
[hint]
The soap is a red herring, and I suppose there isn't any lock to open.[/hint]

Hi, Porchbeast!
How to open the window:
Spoiler
You must use facial cleanser pad with window, then sword with window.
Quote from: porchbeast on Sun 23/05/2004 23:09:07

Use scrub pad from bathroom on window. Then pick-up comforter and sheets, tie them to bed post. Use dexcalibur on window.

For all of you guys that are stuck on this game, I have created a walkthrough file which can be found below.
No-Action Jackson Walkthrough (http://i.domaindlx.com/happyhelmet/walkthroughs/noaction.txt)
I've searched through the other Q&A and this problem isn't addressed (even in the walkthroughs!)
I'm in the dojo, I need to use the bath robe to look like a student, but use the bathrobe on what? I can't use it on Jackson (no hotspot) and just plain 'using' it seems to do nothing. What am I doing wrong?
This is the last thing I need to do! Help!
Don't worry, problem solved tried it again and it worked. Don't know what I was doing wrong ::)
