How do I get rid of the scary bird?

Spoiler

It appears to be a gull. And what do they eat?

[close]

It think it was some problem with an implemented in-game-timer that's affected by the CPU-speed.

Get out of prison:

Spoiler

Knock the guard down!

[close]

Dunno if it's essential or just an easter-egg:

Spoiler

Use the pot on yourself. :-)

[close]

Just for curiosity:

What do I need the key for?

Damn. Mama told me not to cut someone off! :-)

Thank you, Leon!

I have this odd feeling that I've missed some hotspot!!! 

Spoiler

Got the cards,  used none of them. That's it. What did I miss?

[close]

Hmmm, same problem for me I guess.

Spoiler

used tissue in water, then placed book, spoke ritual when monster was inside the hexagram, but it failed.

[close]

What did I miss?

btw: Was stuck inside the fridge and almost gone mad. Why do I have to walk up the box but use an archway??? 

Hi.

First:

Spoiler

The Gerbil has a hotspot!

[close]

Second:

Spoiler

Did you get the grain?

[close]

Third:

Spoiler

Combine the information hotspot and grain :-)

Hmm, did you try to rename the game file into "hustler.exe"?

I thing you missed some place that I also found rather accidently:

Spoiler

  You can also go behind the building at the left side, right where you start.

There were four endings mentioned. I don't know if I missed one.
I got:

Spoiler

- Killing Alice with the knife
- Good Ending after giving/saying various things (Is there another way?)
- Being killed by Alice (Marionette)
- Being killed by the monster at the Chess-field (does this count as an ending?)

[close]

Did anyone get another one?

Hello.

I don't get the Sphere Puzzle.
Unfortunately there are too much combinations for systematic trials.

Okay, here's what I thought:

Spoiler

Got green, yellow and red sphere, which are mentioned as forest, sun and blood. So, following the board the forest lies southwest, the blood below, the sun rises in the east from the bottom. But these positions and slight variantions failed. So I suppose the directions don't give the clue, just the order they are mentioned matters (first green, then red, last yellow). The heads give the numbers three, four and one. But also positioning the spheres in the given order and the specified positions 1, 3, 4 doesn't do anything. Neither using a telephone pad (the "one" at upper left) nor a keyboard numpad (one at lower left) pursoses anything. So now I am absolutely clueless.

HELP!!! :-)

Hello.

Don't you have "A straight, but otherwise boring stick"? It seems like this is supposed to be the stick you got from the boy at concordia. (According to my savegames.) Maybe that will help you.

@ paolo

You need to get to know more about the injury before you'll be able to do anything in sickbay

Spoiler

maybe inspect him closely

[close]

Spoiler

maybe use a tool to ckeck him

[close]

Oh, hi again.

Thanks for your reply.
I've finished the game. Unfortunately I used the italian walkthrough that I found quite often.  I think otherwise this would have quickly become a "Very Hot Topic" :-)
There were many actions that I would never have considered.
Anyway, I enjoyed playing it. Thanks for your efforts.

Oh, hold on a sec.

Spoiler

Okay, I improved my Italian and got into duct

[close]

Let's see. :-) I bet there'll be more to come .

Spoiler

still didn't get rid of JaJa

[close]

Hmmm, I'd suggest you to print out the walkthrough, play again and check every single point. Neither innovative nor exciting, but hopefully effective. :-)

Hi Paolo.

Thank you for your hints. But it seems that I am totally clueless. I already feared it would be the A-B-C-way.

So here is what I did so far and what I guess what I'll need to do.

Spoiler

I will win the Pool by distracting Tesla with fly in glass, but Rexy doesn't want to remove the shrunkhead, and by distracting kangaroo with TV, but Rexy doesn't use the remote.
I entered the girls' room, got hairspray. And I entered VIP room and got cane and popcorn gloves. In order to light spray and remove the grating I need the handkerchief, but I don't know how to get rid of butch.
According to your hints Jaja dreams of being a wrestler, and needs something from Alexander, but he is working.

[close]

I totally do not unterstand

Spoiler

Why I need to help the police and why Lovely Lizard doesn't use any stupid item as a lever like any EVERY other adventure game!!!

[close]

God how I am frustrated. :-)
Many thanks for your help!

I need some help with T-Rex and Muscle Sam.

I have done so far:

Spoiler

hook in position, defeated Lord Chester

[close]

But now I'm totally stuck.

How do I

Spoiler

open the grating in the bathroom and the door in the editing room

[close]

?

Heeeeeeeeeeelp.

Hi.
Though I´m in my twens I always favored Adventures and still hold a large collection of those classic games.
My first one here was "Duty and Beyond" and it was quite captivating and has really been worthwhile! (although it looks very antiquated: give it a chance to let it spill it's charm on you!).
I don´t know how significant the official ratings are, but I'd suggest you to have a look at
http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/games.php?action=digest&sortby=3&sortdir=0&startfrom=0
and try the highest rated ones. Just in case you want to simply pick the cherries... 
But be aware that you'll miss a bunch of great impressions this way!
