The Last Harvest

[jkohen]

Hi all,

I'm stuck close to the end of the game (or so it seems):

Spoiler

I have the following items:
diary, gun, staff, two white kings and two black ones, a pearl necklace, a hook, a chunk of coal, two silver rings and the feather (down).

I have tried everything I can think of, and I still don't get the fourth quest. I think I'm supposed to crush the chess kings to a powder, but I can't figure out how.

[close]

Any hints will be very appreciated.

[nihilyst]

blashyrkh:
That's a pretty silly puzzle, so I'll help myself.

Hint no. 1

Spoiler

You figured out right, that you need something to crush the kings. A stone maybe?

[close]

Hint no. 2

Spoiler

The well is made of stone. Maybe you can get a stone from there?

[close]

solution

Spoiler

Use the staff on the well, take the stone and crush the kings.

cheers

Wow, that WAS a quick reply! Thanks for the hint, I missed that detail.

Spoiler

And it also explains why I was getting "I already have the stone" when using other objects on the well... I just didn't think of using the staff.

Now I've finished it (only two endings, I'm afraid), but I'm hungry for knowledge. Would you give some insight on what really is going on?

[nihilyst]

I'll only tell you so much:

Spoiler

You can have two silver bullets in the end.

This is a great game.... but I have some problems...

Spoiler

I can't defeat the Wizard in chess. He tells me to get better, but I can't finde anyone or anything that can make me better.
I have coin, diary, pillow, nail, apple, can, sleeping pill
I thought of using the sleeping pill in the Wizard's blue cup, but "he'll see me"

try to "manipulate" the windmill in some way

[JuuL]

Thanks Petra - it worked.
That must be one of the strangest puzzles I've seen since the "bend the piece of iron twice puzzle" in Fightmeyer's Noisy Mountain...

[JuuL]

Just finished the game. Found two of the possible three endings, but there should be a third, so...

Spoiler

any ideas about how to get the revolver without paying with the coin - it's made of silver and could be used for making a second bullet which could be used for shooting the mysterios "Miss". I don't know why I want to do this, but I think it would help. I tried paying with the pillow, but he just took it without giving me the gun.

See the previous exchange between nihilyst and me on this same thread for hints.

[JuuL]

Thanks, but how

Spoiler

do I get the second silver ring? I have tried to ask "Miss" again, and I've talked to all the other people, including the tree

Read carefully the list of items that I was carrying around... don't you notice something weird?

[.Sklate.]

I seem to be stuck ...

Spoiler

I've put the wizard to sleep, pulled the carpet but the trapdoor seems unselectable.

I've read the diary. Talked to the tavern owner and the beggar and now i've got the revolver and a glass of water.

What should I do now?

[close]

[Afflict]

.Sklate

Spoiler

Use the can on the ground where the posters are laying the hotspot is on your ight hand side.

Use water on the ground get bullte load gun...

[close]

STuck

Spoiler

I also moved the carpet and cant seem to access the trap door the area here is defined to carpet.. I am guessing that I should use something on it but what?

[close]

Bugs

Spoiler

The first one is the one outside the tavern where you can walk to the  door to get stew. your character scales when you walk on the right hand side (closest to edge of screen the character doesnt scale)

then of course there is the one area of the carpet...

[close]

[.Sklate.]

Afflict, just returning the favour 

Spoiler

use the hook on the carpet

[close]

On another note, major spoiler:

Spoiler

I don't really understand how I managed to end up with two silver rings, I thought it was a bug. Same goes with the White King. Who'd have guessed it would actually been used to make a second shot.

One thing I fail to understand is how did some people end up with a black king?And what significance does it have?

[close]

[Mordalles]

the black king is also on the chessboard, though i have no idea what it's used for.

[Jank]

Where do you get the nail?  I've looked all over and can't seem to find it.

Thanks in advance!

[nihilyst]

Spoiler

In your hotel room. It's a loose nail in the wall.

[dazmoose]

Aww I'm stuck Where's the feather please?

And can you ever get into that stew place?

[maggie]

enjoying the game but stuck.How do I get the sleeping pill from the tired man?

[JuuL]

Aww I'm stuck Where's the feather please?

And can you ever get into that stew place?

I hope this helps:

Spoiler

You already have the feather. You just don't know it...

I don't know about the stew place. I've finished the game and I didn't get in - but maybe there is some secret way to do it - some sort of bonus puzzle.
