Help me! Please!
Spoiler
I am wandering around town, I have got money once but lost it, I have small change, a camera, soap, orange, branch, broken glass and lighter. I have gotten Pegleg out of the bank, but I don't know why, and I can't get the jukebox to work and I can't open the trunk of the car
Spoiler
You can pick up an object from the liquor store.. check the bottles out for a different hotspot
How do i open the car trunk?
Spoiler
With oil. Check Fizzii's hint above.
Possible spoilers. I hope the HIDE works:
Spoiler
I got he pirate out of the bank,
played Music at jukebox, bum has left,
got counter in liquor store to 998, I guess
I need one more person to leave it's scene
to make it 999 and me being the 1000th guest
at the restaurant
Please help, i am hopelessly clueless.
Cheers and thanks
I.a.L
Spoiler
You are correct. The third person is Griff.
Thanks for the reply.
Spoiler
But how do I distract him?
I tried everything on him yet not to avail.
Another clue would be highly appreciated.
Cheers and Thanks
I.a.L
Spoiler
You don't distract him. You're supposed to get him into the store.
Spoiler
If you talk to him, he'll mention he just came from the store, and is packing up the things he bought.
Spoiler
The things he bought are bottles. Hence, fragile.
This is getting even more confusing.
Spoiler
I figured out the trick with Griff
now I have the counter to 999 but nothing happens.
I gave the pirate in the store the orange.
He's back at the bank. Now I have no more dialogues to exhaust.
At first glance this game looked easy but it isn't :-))
Please forward me by a further clue.
Cheers and thanks
I.A.L
This one is too easy, how could you miss it?
Spoiler
I finally managed to get Griff inside, and I became 1000th buyer. How? Buy something by giving money (Mika has some small amount of money- just enough for a beer! :)).
BTW great game!
Shame on me !
Thanks for the clue, this really was easy.
But as my nick reads : I'm a loser :-))
Cheers and thanks
I.a.L
Hi! Nice game!
Spoiler
What use does have the branch?
And what shall I do with the wallet? Return it to someone? To who?
You need to give the
Spoiler
Money to the baron
Can someone tell me what to do? I have lost the mannequin and do not know what to do next
Hi Jon,
You can give the
Spoiler
mannequin only to the pirate in the bank.
You must then take a photo of him and offer it to him.
Cheers
I.a.L.
How do I get griff into the store?
You have to
Spoiler
make him slip on the parking lot
Cheers
I.a.L
Thanks for the previous help
Spoiler
Where do I find whatever I need to give to the doctor? I think its a plant, but where is it?
And how do I wake up the woman on the bank?
One of the
Spoiler
plants in the liquor store is a fern
Thanks for your help I.a.L
I think I have encountered a few problems:
Spoiler
The pirate appears even after the dummy is there
The oil doesn't work on the trunk - It was told earlier that it should
I cannot do anything whatsoever at the moment
Any hints on what to do next?
Jon -
Spoiler
The oil is dehydrated
Spoiler
With regards to the pirate, you have to give the photo of himself to him straight after you gave him the mannequin, otherwise he won't accept the photo (due to a bug)
Hi Jon,
about the trunk :
Spoiler
Where in the game can you get water ?
Cheers
I.a.L

Spoiler
If you have problems with this bug, I'd suggest downloading the new version, which has fixed it.
help please!
I got the stick, wallet and doll. I seem to have talked with everyone everywhere. And I need to bring Dr. Die Vie Ess something. Anyway, what's my next move?
Please give direct answer, not hints
The stick ...
Spoiler
is a red herring, so is the lighter and the pack of cigarettes.
You give the mannequin to the pirate in the bank
and give him a photo of himself afterwards.
Give the wallet to the baron.
Good luck and cheers
I.a.L
I.a.L. :
I did the things you said but it didn't advance me in anything except I now have soap. Can't seem to do anything in the bank even with Hooky gone.
Look at the
Spoiler
number at the wall in the liquor store.
It has changed once the pirate has left the bank.
And at the plaque outside the restaurant.
Using the soap at the parking lot will change
this number, too

Look up the thing he's asking for on google.
Spoiler
Then take a picture of it.
What do you mean use soap in parking lot? on what??
And what do I do with the bubble gum?
QuoteWhat do you mean use soap in parking lot? on what??
Exactly that:
Spoiler
The hotspot is on the ground to the right of the screen
QuoteAnd what do I do with the bubble gum?
Spoiler
The bubble gum makes a loud noise... such as waking people up
OK, I did those things and also won an orange. What do I do with it?

Spoiler
The orange you will need to eventually give to Hooky... if he doesn't want the orange yet, you are not at the point of the game where you need to use it.
OK, then what DO I need to do next ?? ???

I'm not sure what you're up to in the game exactly, so you might want to check out the walkthrough:
http://crystalshard.net/index.php?f=root_wt
This walkthrough is VERY unclear, is not in chronological order, does not solve everything and at some points even vague, sometimes even plainly wrong.
Is it not a walkthrough, it's barely a collection of random hints.
Points I need help with after reading the "walkthrough":
Spoiler
1) "Play the walkman next to it, he'll be fooled into thinking it works." WHAT walkman? where and when do I get it?
2) "Look in the trunk of the wrecked car, next to the bank." It's stuck shut! How do I open it?
3) "Have you seen the trash can inside the bank?" YES! IT'S EMPTY!
4) "Search the liquor store carefully." ummm.... for what exactly? (unless they mean the fern that needs to be photographed)
5) "You need to have other people buy something first. Try Griff, the bum, and McPegleg" - I dealt with Griff but I can't get the bum there cos I don't have the walkman and Hooky isn't going to the sore even though I got him out of the bank.
6) What do I do with the lighter?
It's not wrong. Perhaps it could give step-by-step guidance but it is followable if the player puts a bit of thought into the puzzles. Anyway, I believe this is all you have to do:
Spoiler
Pick up the bottle in the liquor store on the shelves in the foreground. This requires mousing over the bottles for a hotspot that says 'Bottle', rather than 'Bottles'. You'll find it's a bottle of dehydrated oil. Hydrate the oil by using the bottle on the fishtank in the restaurant. Use the bottle of oil on the trunk of the car and you'll get a walkman. Play the walkman near the jukebox and the bum will come out. Give the bum some money and he'll go to the liquor store, so you can go there now and be the 1000th customer. Hooky however, won't leave, so give him the orange. Then buy something from the store with your remaining cash, and you'll get a lot more money. Take the money to the restaurant and give it to the chef
Pixel hunting :S
Well, there aren't an infinite number of bottles there so it's not so hard to find, esp. given that mousing over the bottles gives the hotspot message at the top of the game...

circled in green
Yeah but when you go over the screen and see "bottles", "bottles", "bottles"... etc... why WOULD you point at very single one? That's why pixel hunting is so frustrating and evil
Then I suggest you play this game (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=detail&id=923) instead.
Yes.
Ha ha. ;)
I'm just making points about frustrating puzzles that cut the flow of the game that people don't like. Take it as you will. I only mean positive criticism.
Anyone help me finish this game............I have used orange, got glass/lighter/small amount of change/camera/branch. Number has clicked up to 999. What do I do next to get the money needed for party?
Jane -
Spoiler
Buy something to become the 1000th customer. But Pegleg is there, so you'll need to give him something to get rid of him
