The gas is not enough, so you need more carburant. Got any alcoholic drink? Use it, then light the candle and send it through the pipe also. Good luck.

And about hiding: You start the hidden text with [ h i d e ], no spaces between the angular brackets, and end it with: [ / h i d e ]. You can also consult the help found on this site:

Thanks a million, sthomannch, I very much appreciate your help on both my items.   Best wishes, Wendy

I have read the whole of this forum (all 6 sections) but am still stuck at the monks {hide} I climbed the low roof, went left, crossed the plank and went to the corner and poured gas down at the cornice so it lands near the monk, then lit the candle and tried clicking the lit candle on the cornice, but the game replies "I don't think it is enough".Ã,  I even tried the torch on the monk to make him turn away from the pipe before I clicked the candle on the cornice, but I still get the same message "I dont think it is enough" {unhide} Please help, someone.Ã,  Thanks, Wendy

The help for the game worked.  Thanks once again.

However the website for forum usage says to modify or delete, click the modify or delete button, but I see no such  buttons on the forum!  I then tried ticking "return to this topic" so I could amend it (to hide, as I originally intended), but that made it worse.   So I still do not know how to go back and hide it.  Sorry!!

Wendy,

Actually if you read the following thread:
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=28246.0

I believe those button will appear in registered accounts.

Be sure to register.

Talking about those monks, I too have problems. I know according to some hints, we can use torch on monks and they should be remove out of sight but they don't!

Must I used some batteries? If so where can find those?

no batteries, and you don't need the torch to get rid of the monks. See also the previous posts. You have been to the theater? A simple fire will do.

do you see the ladder just right of the J section? Use the hand icon on it and then again to climb it

Thanks a lot! That item was very difficult for me to notice.

With the heavy use of this thread I finished the game! Thanks to everyone who shared their advance in the game.

Spoiler

I must say that I could have never guessed that I need to burn my copy of the red book with the missing page, so that the book becomes "special" and appears in Jodo's shelves!
Maybe it's a language issue - perhaps "lost book" instead of "special". Then it would have had some logic - by destroying the only existing copy of the book, it will become "lost" to mankind, and that will make it appear in Jodo's "treasury" of lost books.
And I don't understand the logic of the correspondence b/n zodiacal signs and buttons on the wheel. To be honest, hadn't it been for Maggie's trial and error, we might be still at a loss...

Apart from that, I did enjoy the game! I've been following the sequence ever since Devil's Shroud I.

look at the titles of the books that you found in the library. Take the first letter from each word in each title, you'll get the name of three cities. Find the cities on the globe and use your pen on the dot that marks the city on the globe.

I finished this nice game not so long ago and thought that I found out most of it. This is definitely not true for the clock and the statue. I didn't try all 495 combinations (the mathematician paolo was right about "only" 495 of them). I  then looked at the pointers and somehow got the right buttons at the second try, but now I think it was only luck.

When I read the posts, it seems that I missed this a few bits: Has somebody found out where the hand of the statue is pointing to? The explanation for the astronomical clock in this thread also seems a bit complicated, but nobody else has come up with a better one.

[dayv]

the problem is he says "dont need that book" for each number from note, cant get any books, must have missed something...

You got the note from the dead monk? On the note are three sections and three book numbers. In the library, look at the book on the desk in front first to find out that the library is organized in sections. Then look at the shelfs to find the section D (left), J (back) and T (front). To reach J you have to move the ladder. If you use the hand icon on a section, you will be asked for the book numbers.

dayv, you are playing the first part, in Turin? If so, find a previous thread or start a new one. This thread is about part III

i cant seem to get the cow to soil the policemans pants fed him the forage gave him the plum and fed the chicken but its not working

[sthomannch]

SAG770, wrong forum, but:

Spoiler

put the plum and the feed in the manger, then the seed on the ground, I think I did it this way round. Important is that the cow steps back.

So you saw the crime scene? You also had a look at the big book on the counter in front of the scene of the library? Leo must find out that the library is organized in sections, then find the sections D, J and T first, then use the hand icon on the correct sections (and do not forget to use the ladder for section J). I have no save game ready, if everything fails, ask again.

And did somebody find out about what I asked in a previous post?
