Title: The Great Casserole Caper
Post by: on Wed 01/08/2007 04:10:39
Enjoying your game, but I'm stuck. I have

Spoiler
brick, toilet paper, toilet cleaner, flower, stick, ashes, key. I can't get reach the keys in the car and I put the very, very, very long (lol) extension cord through the hole. When I enter the house after using the cord in the hole I can't get back out, and I don't see the cord. I suppose it's in the kitchen that's toxic, but I can't figure how to stop the smoke.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Here's what you have to do:
Spoiler
Stuff the toilet paper into the toilet and then go to where Mike and Lasagna are waiting.  I think I'll have to check the game myself, you might've hit a bug if you left the house after getting the cord through the hole, but since I didn't do the scripting I don't know if I'll be able to figure out exactly what's wrong.

Hope this helps.

extension cord

Spoiler
use brick on crack in ceiling in bathroom, cord in hole, then stick toilet paper in toilet--you may need to have talked to the uncle guarding the room for the toilet paper to work or something cause when I first tried it didn't work. Maybe after putting cord in hole the toilet paper works.

You need to get the red perfume bottle out of the case, and then use it on the bed.  From what you wrote, you only picked up the blue and green bottles.

After your discussion with Lasagna and Mike, talk to Grandpa Spaghetti and he'll tell you to put on some football.  Look in the hexagonal cabinet at the far left of Mike and Lasagna's room to find a box of crayons.  I'll leave you to your own devices to solve that predicament.  ^_^

Man, all you of people need help with a little children's game?!  ;)

just kidding! Yea, I know some of the puzzles are confusing, so I'll see if I can find the time to write up the walk-through for the game. I probably won't be able to do it today, Dashe, but there is about a four-day lull period between the one month terms at Full Sail, so I'll probably do it then.

Still need to get a new website though  :(

Spoiler
When you enter the house at the beginning of the game you need to go upstairs and talk to the girl there. She tells you to get a key from grandpa. So you need to ask grandpa about that. The dialogue choice you want to use is about playing pirates I think. Grandpa will want something from you for the key which is changing the TV channel. Then you can get the crayons you'll need to help solve the TV channel puzzle.

Spoiler
If Spaghetti's calling you a midget commie leprechaun before asking for his medicine, you're missing one of the dialogue prompts.  Underneath the option where you exit the dialogue, after you tell him you're playing pirates, you get a prompt that says 'Like what?' and if you choose that you'll be able to get the crayons out of the cabinet.
