The House That Ate My Soul

Fluse-

Spoiler

in the room with the picture of the witch (next to the kitchen), there is a shelf of books. Remember the food that the princess tells you and look it up in the cookbook... it will help you figure out the code.

And your English is SOOO much better than my German!
Omi- If you mean the door in the basement (next to the potatoes) ignore it... you can't open it.Ã,  And I sometimes got the "Not a good start" message (even when they took the itemÃ,  : ) He should take any item you give him, correct or not. So, maybe leave the room and come in and try it again? Or see if he's taken the item, despite the message. This game really is neat, but very buggy.

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...

Hi, please how can I OVERWRITE THE SL.GUIDEFILE?  I dont know how to do that!!!!

Florence is deaf, but there's no need to shout.

Just delete the SL.GUI file and unpack a new copy from the game's ZIP/RAR. Or, better yet, get the updated version that nihilyst announced recently: it fixes this particular bug.

I need help with the chest, i c'ant not open and
i c'ant combine the items.

[nihilyst]

Some people seem to encounter problems with combining items. Try holding down left shift and pressing random numbers until it works.

If you didn't know what to do:

Spoiler

Combine the water sprayer with the salt, then use it with the chest.

I think I must be getting neat to the end of the game, but I don't seem to have any new options or things to do...

Spoiler

I have three gems and what I assume are the two outermost parts of a key, and a dagger I haven't used yet.  I can't get the drawer open in the room with the safe, and the only dialogue I can have with the monk is ask him what room he's in.

You have to give the monk the three gems, so that he can put it into this device in his room. You have to put thegems in the bag the monk gave you for the bible. Either Elliott, Malcolm or Gorky must have it (because you traded it). Trade the dagger for it, putt the gems in the bag and give it to the monk.

I have two gems, yellow and blue, where is the third?
How can i open the drawer?
Thanks

Lucien, the fisherman, has it. But you need to do him a favor. The witch can help.

I need help again, i c'an find the dagger, vulture and where can i find dilutes blood. I'm totaly stuck.

[sthomannch]

Fluse, don't rush through the hints and through the game, but anyway...

Spoiler

dilute blood: a medecin, go to bath room.
vulture: there is only a vulture egg, give Malcom something to recover it
dagger: have you been in the dungeon? if not, then you have to solve other riddles first

I can't get into the game.  I keep getting an error message:

Error run text script1:  error -6
Running function 'game start'
null pointer reference referred in global script line 33

[rolyn]

Please help

Spoiler

I have all the ingredients for the witch but just cannot combine them. I have hit so many different combinations, but nothing works.Ã,  All I can think of is that maybe the ingrendiets are not in the correct slots.

[Fertfreak]

My problem is that I've gotten rid of the umbrella, but Malcolm still won't wake up.

[sthomannch]

Fertfreak, you need stronger arguments

Spoiler

let the gardener hit Malcoms head with something hard

[close]

[Mordalles]

i have stone, salt, whistle, aspirin, magazine, watercan, fishing pole and potatoe (already used a potatoe), but i'm not sure what i should do next? please help! 

[sthomannch]

Mordalles

Spoiler

you gave the gardener a potato, so give hime something else so he can wake up Malcom. First the fishing rod. For the second item look at my previous post...

[close]

[Mordalles]

thanks, stomannch, i just now saw for the first time the "tab switch"! 
how do i give him the fishing rod? he just says "not a good start".

[ch33rio]

Mordalles... you can't give him anything until he has something to trade with you. Have you had the gardener pick up anything inside his painting yet?
