am totally confused by your comment Radiant - the TV gave the sins to loook for as lust, envy, sloth, wrath, gluttony, greed and jealousy - I have now collect 6 sins so should I be looking for envy or not as I have found jealousy?  Totally stuck again.

D'oh, that is my mistake. No, the seventh is vanity, not jealousy.

Ness, please help

Spoiler

I have the cape, but how do I get passed Ossie without being seen [\hide]

Spoiler

Are you carrying something that makes you plainly visible?

[close]

Spoiler

Such as a lamp?

[close]

Almost there

Jealousy is the same as envy (nor, do I think, is it mentioned in-game). Seven sins, not eight.

The final cut...
Your character can't speak French

Spoiler

but there's a translatomat in the moon bunker

[close]

Spoiler

right next to Ossie

[close]

Spoiler

so you had better make sure he doesn't see you

[close]

After that, you can probably figure out how to deal with Chretien.

I've sent you both an e-mail. Thanks for your time!

How to enter cinema?

This gal don't want to talk to me nor does she want her axe back. Maybe I should feed her to the whale. hee hee hee

[close]

Spoiler

Well, if you have the axe, perhaps you could use it as a weapon.

Spoiler

Does anyone dislike something in particular?

[close]

Spoiler

Try talking to the vendor in London.

[close]

Does it have keyboard support?

Please help

Spoiler

I fixed the stool and got nothing. When I query again, radiant says it is wobbly ... Also where do I get paper

[close]

Spoiler

Well, now you can play Pong against him.

[close]

Reminds me of Enchanter, where you can aimfiz just about anything.

Dropped you a line, matt. Go META

I've committed wrath and gluttony

That's two out of seven. Keep it up.

Spoiler

If you got as far as wrath, I'm quite sure you should have at least greed on your list, and lust and vanity within reach. Envy and sloth should be easy.

[close]

I broke the lamp but it just disappeared. What was that about?

No, it's not a dead end, don't worry.

Spoiler

You might need to not have a lamp at some point.

[close]

Well I never thought of fixing the chair with THAT item. You have a mysterious mind Radiant. Very mysterious indeed.

<grin> Hey, that works in real life, too

Have been to the cinema, what a fat waste of time that was. Was something supposed to happen?

And how sinful have YOU been?

Spoiler

It's an xxx cinema, so that makes it...

[close]

Yes, for those who haven't figured it out yet, the main puzzle of the game is

Spoiler

to collect all the sins so the angel lets you pass.

[close]

Have you tried being sinful yet?

Spoiler

yes I dealt with the elf and I see Fizzy by the pool, but I can't do much with him either.

[close]

Spoiler

Her, if you don't mind Have you tried entering the pool?

[close]

Oh yes, regarding the cinema,

Spoiler

The "look in" verb does have a use. Specifically, one item is hidden in something. No, it's not in the cinema; and yes, it's in a plausible container.

[close]

Yes, see if you can help Radiant.

I got the dragons egg but no gameboard..............is that OK?

No, you should have gotten both. Have you opened up your inventory panel?

Spoiler

except deal with that darn Unicorn.

[close]

Dealt with the elf yet?

Spoiler

One of its gifts look scary to you?

[close]

Spoiler

Afterwards, check the whale pool.

[close]

Spoiler

I haven't found anyone who wants paper

[close]

The army recruiter in Amsterdam.

Spoiler

A push as to what to try next would be grand!

[close]

Okay. See if you can help Radiant.

Spoiler

Can you do anything in that controlroom when you switch scenes?

[close]

Spoiler

Considering he's your main antagonist,

[close]

Spoiler

the answer would be no.

[close]

Spoiler

I thought I had tried everything on that stool. Duh. The guy has his paper now.

[close]

Spoiler

Ah, the guy has dropped flyers all over town. Seen any?

[close]

Spoiler

Wrong town, that stuff falls, you know.

[close]

Spoiler

Think you might be able to use that flyer to, oh say, distract someone?

[close]

Spoiler

shaking the computer is amusing, is there something I should do when it is all shook up?

[close]

No. Easter egg, since one of the rulesets required such graphics.

Spoiler

I really think that Viking guy would look scarier with a pumpkin on his head. lol But he don't want it.

[close]

Pumpkins aren't really scary, we just pretend they are. She knows better than that.

Spoiler

found a rocket, now to find out what to do with it

[close]

Fix it. Got some tool?

   It all started when our over-heralded star, Hansel, woke up in a magical cornfield. It was the ninth time it had happened. Feeling excessively displeased, Hansel grabbed a wolverine, thinking it would make him feel better (but as usual, it did not). Absolutely thrilled, he realized that his beloved golden apple was missing!  Immediately he called his overtly elitist, rich friend, Gretel. Hansel had known Gretel for (plus or minus) half a million years, the majority of which were curious ones.  Gretel was unique. She was smart though sometimes a little... stupid. Hansel called her anyway, for the situation was urgent.

   Gretel picked up to a very unhappy Hansel. Gretel calmly assured him that most South American hissing sloths sigh before mating, yet long-haired sea monkeys usually flamboyantly sigh *after* mating. She had no idea what that meant; she was only concerned with distracting Hansel.  Why was Gretel trying to distract Hansel?  Because she had snuck out from Hansel's with the golden apple only eight days prior.  It was a electric little golden apple... how could she resist?

   It didn't take long before Hansel got back to the subject at hand: his golden apple. Gretel belched. Relunctantly, Gretel invited him over, assuring him they'd find the golden apple. Hansel grabbed his whale and disembarked immediately. After hanging up the phone, Gretel realized that she was in trouble. She had to find a place to hide the golden apple and she had to do it aptly. She figured that if Hansel took the spaceship, she had take at least nine minutes before Hansel would get there.  But if he took the shining white horse?  Then Gretel would be very screwed.

   Before she could come up with any reasonable ideas, Gretel was interrupted by nine funny-smelling two-tailed squirrels that were lured by her golden apple. Gretel sneezed; 'Not again', she thought. Feeling stunned, she aimlessly reached for her wolverine and recklessly grabbed every last one of them. Apparently this was an adequate deterrent--the discouraged critters began to scurry back toward the disease-infested jungle, squealing with discontent. She exhaled with relief.  That's when she heard the shining white horse rolling up.  It was Hansel.

----o0o----

   As he pulled up, he felt a sense of urgency. He had had to make an unscheduled stop at Sears to pick up a 12-pack of live hand grenades, so he knew he was running late.  With a apt leap, Hansel was out of the shining white horse and went exotically jaunting toward Gretel's front door.  Meanwhile inside,  Gretel was panicking.  Not thinking, she tossed the golden apple into a box of ninja stars and then slid the box behind her whale. Gretel was concerned but at least the golden apple was concealed.  The doorbell rang.

   'Come in,' Gretel flamboyantly purred.  With a quick push, Hansel opened the door.  'Sorry for being late, but I was being chased by some selfish noble genius in a hippie-pleasing hybrid vehicle,' he lied.  'It's fine,' Gretel assured him. Hansel took a seat uncomfortably close to where Gretel had hidden the golden apple. Gretel sneezed trying unsuccessfully to hide her nervousness.  'Uhh, can I get you anything?' she blurted.  But Hansel was distracted. Before anyone could take off their pants, Gretel noticed a pestering look on Hansel's face. Hansel slowly opened his mouth to speak.

   '...What's that smell?'

   Gretel felt a stabbing pain in her ear when Hansel asked this.  In a moment of disbelief, she realized that she had hidden the golden apple right by her oscillating fan. 'Wh-what?  I don't smell anything..!'  A lie.  A funny-smelling look started to form on Hansel's face. He turned to notice a box that seemed clearly out of place. 'Th-th-those are just my grandma's ninja stars from when she used to have pet South American hissing sloths.  She, uh...dropped 'em by here earlier'. Hansel nodded with fake acknowledgement...then, before Gretel could react, Hansel recklessly lunged toward the box and opened it.  The golden apple was plainly in view.

   Hansel stared at Gretel for what what must've been nine seconds. Just as zero people expected Gretel groped sassily in Hansel's direction, clearly desperate. Hansel grabbed the golden apple and bolted for the door.  It was locked. Gretel let out a eccentric chuckle. 'If only you hadn't been so protective of that thing, none of this would have happened, Hansel,' she rebuked. Gretel always had been a little annoying, so Hansel knew that reconciliation was not an option; he needed to escape before Gretel did something crazy, like... start chucking carrots at her or something. A few freaknasty minutes later, he gripped his golden apple tightly and made a dash toward the window, diving headlong through the glass panels.

   Gretel looked on, blankly. 'What the hell?  That seemed excessive.  The other door was open, you know.' Silence from Hansel. 'And to think, I varnished that window frame two days ago...it never ends!' Suddenly she felt a tinge of concern for Hansel. 'Oh.  You ..okay?' Still silence. Gretel walked over to the window and looked down. Hansel was gone.

----o0o----

   Just yonder, Hansel was struggling to make his way through the lemur-infested moor behind Gretel's place. Hansel had severely hurt his prostate during the window incident, and was starting to lose strength.  Another pack of feral two-tailed squirrels suddenly appeared, having caught wind of the golden apple.  One by one they latched on to Hansel.  Already weakened from his injury, Hansel yielded to the furry onslaught and collapsed.  The last thing he saw before losing consciousness was a buzzing horde of two-tailed squirrels running off with his golden apple.

   About seven hours later, Hansel awoke, his kidney throbbing.  It was dark and Hansel did not know where he was.  Deep in the lonely magical cornfield, Hansel was very lost. Just as zero people expected he remembered that his golden apple was taken by the two-tailed squirrels. But at that point, he was just thankful for his life.  That's when, to his horror, a misshapen two-tailed squirrel emerged from the foxy forest.  It was the alpha two-tailed squirrel. Hansel opened his mouth to scream but was cut short when the two-tailed squirrel sunk its teeth into Hansel's scalp. With a faint groan, the life escaped from Hansel's lungs, but not before he realized that he was a failure.

   Less than three miles away, Gretel was entombed by anguish over the loss of the golden apple.  'MY PRECIOUS!!' she cried, as she reached for a sharpened potato.  With a hasty thrust, she buried it deeply into her double chin.  As the room began to fade to black, she thought about Hansel... wishing she had found the courage to tell him that she loved him.  But she would die alone that day.  All that remained was the golden apple that had turned them against each other, ultimately causing their demise.  And as the dew on melancholy sappling branches began to reflect the dawn's reddish glare, all that could be heard was the chilling cry of distant two-tailed squirrels, desecrating all things sacred to virtuous men, and perpetuating an evil that would reign for centuries to come.  Our heroes would've lived unhappily ever after, but they were too busy being dead.  So, no one lived forever after, the end. :'(

they use the verb-coin. so hold in the mouse button.

D'oh, I should have noticed that.
