Right, so, RIGHT after I combined the two items, it then "forgot" they were combined and then the game crashed. Again. For the fourth time. I want to cry. And now it's confusing to combine them... I may never get as far in the game as you!

Check the workaround I posted in the game's announcement thread for the crash caused by saving the games. At least it will make it less scary to play. Remember to quit after you save, apply the workaround, then saveing will work once more again. Rinse, apply, repeat...

You are not very far from where I am, though.

ALRIGHT! I finally beat my keyboard repeatedly and shrieked profanities at it and it FINALLY did what I told it to. So here goes my last dumb question before I hopefully catch up:
Spoiler
I think I have all the items, but I can't give them to the witch and I haven't yet been able to combine them (oh PLEASE not that again.) Is there a suitable container I'm missing? Or do I need to hold down Lshift and beat buttons repeatedly until the indredients all combine?

Fortunately it sufices to self-combine one of the items (I obviously don't know which one, or if any ingredient works) and Ben puts all of them together in the monk's bag. He should tell you explicitly if you don't have all necessary items. There are only 10 possibilities, so go ahead and try. I.e., LShift 1 1, LShift 2 2, etc. up to 0.
Don't forget to try with the empty slots as well...

I need help yet again... ;D
Spoiler
I finally got out of the dungeon-thanks everyone! I gave something to the witch to make her happy and I assumed she would tell me what ingredients she needed or I needed or whatever but she didn't tell me anything; but when I randomly click on my inventory it tells me I must give her everything at once somehow but I don't even know what she needs! I have exhausted all conversation topics with her, now she just says goodbye when I click on her...What ingredients does the witch need and what are they for?

The Walrus-

One of the paintings is asleep... the gardner can help you wake him up, if you give him the right items to use...

ch33rio

Blashyrkh, have you finished yet? I've caught up to where you were but I'm just wandering now...

ch33rio

Wait, no, I take it back. I'm done. Finally. Miraculously.

thewalrus

Spoiler
I still don't know what items to give the gardener to wake up the other guy?!?! Also what are you supposed to do when you enter the picture where the fern is???

Frank- the witch won't talk to you until you've given her something from the dungeon,
Spoiler
but you have to lure it out and trap it first. And you don't need the mushroom at THIS moment.

Walrus-
Spoiler
the guy is alseep under the sunshade on the other side of the cliff. There's something you have in your inventory that has a hook at the end of it that will get rid of the gian umbrella...

Frank- Have you opened the chest in the dungeon yet?
Spoiler
if you combine a liquid and a common household ingredient, you can corrode and possibly break the chains...
[close]
And the Walrus, it's the same with the other paintings... you can swap 1 item at a time with the paintings.

I'm having trouble with the picture-inventory thing, too.  I've tried giving something to the Mr. Elliott guy after he picks up the fern, but all it says is "Not a good start". Does that mean I just don't have the right item yet?  Also, I can't seem to get into the door without a handle...  I'm sure I'll feel really stupid when I hear the answers, but it's a cool game and I'd like to keep going with it.  (Hope I didn't upset anyone but not using any hidden text but (a- I'm not sure how, and (b- I tried not to give anything away... Sorry if I did, though.)  Thanks bunches.

fluse

Thanks Frank for the answer,
i have the hint from the princess, but i have no idea!
My englich is not so good, i'm from germany.
