I got to the hotel on day 2 where the hotel is all dark, been to my room, found the secret passage back to the library, lit the candle, picked up the book. Now he doesn't want to go back and I don't know what to do. Help please.
I'm stuck too, literally. On a screen with some rocks, wood tied together on the right and a gold colored wooden bridge on the left. You can't cross the bridge (no reason) and north to the right of the bridge takes me back to the screen I'm trying to leave, as if it's a transition to the wrong room...
Anything I can do apart from restoring?

You have to walk down the staircase, go into the back room, and place the book in the bookshelf (you have to find the right area). Hope that helps!

What day are you on?
Depending on which day you are on the woods change their paths, so places you went before, you cant get to now.

I think it's still day 1. Just after I lost a ghost.
Yeah, you cant go back after that point. You have to let the ghost of the villager follow you into the forest where you will lose him, then go across the bridge into the forest. Make sure you enter all possible areas before continuing, because the path can change.
e.g walk to the area up the top with the river, then go back out, walk along again.
The woods are supposed to confuse you haha ;)

Yeah, you succeeded in that :-) Point is, I can't go anywhere (so it seems). I can't cross the bridge and can't walk to the right past the tied trees. I can only walk north but it doesn't lead anywhere..., just the same screen again (next to the bridge). I can't cross the bridge, follow the river or anything..

Hmm upload a screenshot of where it happens. Have you tried walking north of the wicker mans hut?

Hhhuuuu hut?
Here's your screenshot (http://ultimategamesolutions.webs.com/screens.htm)... and no hut. I can only walk north from this point to keep getting back in this screen.

OK this sounds like a bug. What you could try doing is walking to the left of the bridge, and walking right down to the far right. Then try going north again. If you return in the same place again it could be a bug. Strange but people have already got past this. Ill try to replicate it.
Sorry i sound vague, I havent done much with this game for a lonnnggg time haha

Same screen. Here's the savegame (http://ultimategamesolutions.webs.com/files/agssave.004), in case you want to look.
Spoiler
I'm in the cave. I got some circular spiky thing. I'm at a locked door. I think I've been everywhere, inculding upstairs but didn't find anything there. What next?

Sorry, looks like youve got stuck there. Im afraid the only thing you can do is do a restore. You may have left the last area without picking up a vital object, hence it keeps returning you there. Sorry :(

Spoiler
You have got the key from the ghost right? Well you wont be able to open the door with the key just yet until you find the ghost child. Hint..You can find the ghost child near the hut. (look in your inventory for items of destruction!)
Spoiler
When I said cave, I meant mines.
I'm on Day 2, and I am at the Wicker man's house - next to the well and the circular window. :)
Spoiler
I use torch to look down the well, and he says that there is 'something down there, it doesn't look too far.'
But I can't get to whatever is down there. He won't climb down the well himself, and he won't tie rope to the window to lower himself down. :(
Any hints please? :)
By the way, I'm loving the music. ;D
EDIT: Link with the voices still has a saved game - Jake - in the archive. ;)
Spoiler
This game it pretty annoying when it comes to that sort of stuff. You have to click the rope somewhere in the well. I just kept clicking in random spots, walking away, trying again.. Eventually you will be able to use the rope on the well, but you can tell that this hasn't really been tested too well.
Ah, thanks Chaos. I got there eventually :)
Spoiler
I got down the well, and got a big steel bar. There is door with padlock, and when I use padlock key, he tells me he should come back later.
Spoiler
But you are right, the game has clearly not been play tested. :-\
I'm already stuck near the beginning. The cab has dropped me off, I've walked north through the woods and come to a screen with a locked door at the top. I can't go right or left, just down to the other screen and can't open the door. Can anyone help, please? Thanks.

You need to break into the building from the west side, using the crowbar I believe. Then after that scene you can go back down the well.

You have to use the flashlight first before using the rope.

Spoiler
climbed the ladder and left the mines,
have field notes, case files, lighter, hotel room keys, newspaper, flash light, rope, camera,
book, wrench, photo, screwdriver, little not, rusty key
Am I missing an inventory item?
Unfortunately, the game also crashes sometimes when looking at certain items (which item depends on which room). It is also a bit difficult to navigate or get a clue. I had to click randomly a lot just to find exits or find out that an item was hidden somewhere.
this game is all messed up,need walkthrough,so you know whats going on.need walkthrough
Please help.[ hide]I'm stuck at the locked door in the mine. I have found round object in the mine & have talked with the ghost.[/spoiler]
themom
Spoiler
try to get to the upper level and proceed until you get stuck. Upper level means that you will find yourself on a screen that you arrived to before, but now one floor above. Behind some planks there is a rusty key. There is no hint about this and you have to find the right pixel. Use the key to unlock the double door.
got the rusty key, placed the cog, got out to open air...into the company of Sticky, the ugly monster that rejects sternly all items in inventory and waits until you are in a certain point to give you game over. Some item missing? Any help welcome.
Rather crowded up there!
Probably a dead end...
Hopelessly stuck in the scene with the ghost child.
Guess i have to find the teddy, but where ?
Help please !!!!
leave the hotel and go east where the sign is.
Spoiler
You'll find two hay carts. The teddy is hidden in one of them.
I'm still on day one. I've been going through the forest for a long time and haven't found anything. And there's a bridge that won't let me go across.
This is terrible!
Placed cog and the messeage reads "the machine is working again"
but when i try to activate it the mesage appears "the cog is mising"
What is wrong?
Nevermind, found it out
i'm at the same place,then find room,then end up climbing ladder and get killed,what am i doing wrong,help i can't finish the game,need more than a hint.thank you
I am stuck in the same place too. Please help.
heyyyy how about some help guys and girls,we really need it.
I am at the same place. I'm beginning to wonder if that's SUPPOSED to be the end of the game and it's intended to be a "cliffhanger" ending for the sequel.
Considering other aspects of the game that appear to be unfinished, I don't think that's an unreasonable possibility.

does anyone have an answer to this,are we lost or at the end?
to ,I am a loser,you got the answer to this?sure hope so
Working on this one....
Sorry, I don't have the answer.
Actually, I gave up ....
to I am a loser, thanks for replying
to leon,hope you get the answer,looks like a lot of playing for nothing.thanks a million for doing what you can.is that all there is or is there more?
well i guess it's time for me to give up to,no one has the answer or help,what a screwed up game,a bunch of crap,junk it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry about that. Jake doesn't respond to anything. Not this thread, not to PM, not to his email.
I have the feeling the game ends at day 3 and the text "Game Over" should be "to be continued.."
When you read the info from games 2 and 3, the investigator in game 2 dies as well and the mystery is to be solved in game 3. So I keep it to that unless Jake is going to tell me otherwise..
thank you Leon,that solves my problems-no more game,bye bye going gooooing gone.
Sorry, this will answer everyone who got stuck at day 3: (sorry for the long wait)
Spoiler
The ending to the game is that it is left on a cliffhanger, a report of joes death would be made (you dont see him killed to add to the effect) in the intro of the next game, which would have added to the plot. Since the plot and story of Steigo Moors originally was broken down into three parts, this would have been explained then.
Unfortunately, the two other games were never made, (Part 2 was started on, but I no longer have the ags sources available) but in the near future I plan to open up the projects for the next two games to the AGS community, and I will post the full plotline that hopefully the AGS community might be inspired to help me create the next two.
Sorry that alot of people were dissapointed by the end of this game, but the situtation would have been different if the other two parts were created :(
Sorry.

I suggest you try reading the included readme.txt, which explains the situtation and the reply I have made at the bottom of this thread.
Btw your ramblings make you sound very childish.
