Chopping heads?


Sorry, I didn't understand anything in your response

Spoiler

A knife is preferable to an axe. Talk to everybody in the tent (bar) and klick on everything

The only knife I know of is blocked by the horse.

[close]

Spoiler

That's the one you need.

get rid of the horse "lady" - similar to the demo

I really got nowhere in the demo and have no idea what to do for the horse. She just wants horsey stuff and I haven't encountered any

You need to find the new hotspot in

Spoiler

the sleeping quarter, after you removed the rug.

[close]

Still can't get rid of the horse?

Spoiler

Not to foreshadow too much, but I'm confident that Shadow1000 is the right player to figure that one out.

[close]

Spoiler

Remember that you want her to move away.

[close]

OK!

Spoiler

that hint helped me get rid of the horse! Now I just need to get a hat for the bald guy. I have the fur, bag, axe and no outstanding things to do. I don't know how to get to the grove or past the front gate.

[close]

In the sleeping quarters there ought to be a helmet on display for you to take. You will also end up with another item if you break some furniture. Don't be afraid to perform actions several times in this game. There's a hotspot here that's hard to find.

Spoiler

Under the bed.

[close]

From the sleeping quarters, there should be an arrow to the right to a pool in the forest. And from there, an arrow to the right, leading to the grove. I assume you haven't been to these locations yet. Or perhaps you have (was the axe there?)? Anyway, there are several items to be found in the grove.

Don't worry about the map - that's not until the next day.

As this isn't really puzzle answers, I didn't use spoiler tags. Let me know if I should put them up.

Actually,

Spoiler

I JUST found under the bed and was able to get the eyeliner! In the area of the forest where there's a puddle (where I got the water) there is no arrow to the right. I've had the axe for a while but I've tried using it on everything to no avail

Perhaps you have to do other things first before going out of the camp.

Spoiler

finish the task in the grove, right of the poodle - for example get a mouse compagnion for the lazy fat guy in the grove.

pole and tent

Spoiler

it only makes sense if you know that you can take a map and if the lady is in the tent, she will not allow you to take the map

The only knife I know of is blocked by the horse. Which tent are you calling the bar? I assume the command tent? I exhausted all dialogues and checked every hotspot

What grove? what poodle? What fat guy?

Then I'm not there yet.

Sorry I'm just not getting anywhere in this game on my own. Thanks for your patience.

Spoiler

Perhaps the problem with the tail is that you have not read the letters. And do you have a tool?

[close]

Gates and how to unlock other areas

Spoiler

You need a map from the tent, but first you need permission to take a map and get rid of the lady

[close]

Spoiler

Collapse the tent: pull a pole

[close]

Spoiler

1. If you mean the letters in the sleeping tent, even though 3 are displayed, they all have the same text: they have the recipe for the hangover. The only tool I have is the axe, but using it on the ponytail says that I don't want to wake him up.

2. I am not sure why I need a map but anything to be able to do to progress sounds good! Pulling a tent pole makes my screen go black for 75 seconds and it says that it's like nothing happened. And indeed, after wandering around again I don't see any new options or dialogue choices.

[close]

Thanks again!

Thanks guys!

I think this is the same as in the demo version

This was one of the reasons I gave up in the demo. I didn't see any way to solve this.

Spoiler

The bard must fall asleep

He must get hungry first -> choose the correct sentence.
Next choose the option with "sleepy"
Give him the ham that you picked up in the tent right at the beginning of the game

[close]

I think there is something you haven't done in the Sleeping quarters tent.

Spoiler

Have you read all three letters?

[close]

Well, prior to posting

Spoiler

I think that the letters mainly said blah blah. But now that I come back, they have a potion to wake up so I get why I need the ponytail. That also helped me get the sauce

I got the bard to sleep but I can't get the ponytail because it says it will wake him up.

Based on the hints it seems that I need to visit another location and do something I haven't done in the sleep tent (unless it's to find the letters?) . As far as another location, I was at the gate but get turned back each time. I think I've followed all the arrows but I could have missed something.

[close]

I really appreciate the help. I don't think I would have made progress without you guys!

I downloaded the new version. I actually played the earlier release but gave up when I saw that I wasn't getting anywhere, but I'm giving the game another go now.

Spoiler

I don't know how to complete the song. I don't see any hints or references to what to do to complete it. Other than that, the outstanding objectives seem to be:
- get the eyeliner
- find a hat
- get the sauce (not sure why)
- move the horse to get the knife and shield
- wake up the middle guy

I have the coals and fur, meat, fish, axe, pen, cold coffee

If I'm supposed to complete something else before this puzzle, then please let me know but I don't see anything available to be done at this point.

[close]

Thank you

I completed this game last week and I posted my comments on the hints and tips. I think that everyone who's played it more or less said the same thing.

Overall, the story and puzzles are VERY strong. I had a lot of good laughs while playing.

- Section 1 was really tight and I was able to follow the story easily and solve the puzzles.
- Section 2 at first was hard to follow. I don't know if anyone else found the same, but at some point I found that the dialogues felt endless and I didn't realize what was going on. I had some people in the Hints and Tips fill me in and then things made a lot more sense. I realize that some other players didn't have this problem but you might consider making the beginning of Day 2 more brief.

There are many little glitches that should be cleaned up such as being able to get the same item more than once. The translation needs some help.

Spoiler

The bank marked as bench took me forever to figure out

[close]

I don't know any Spanish but I know Portuguese so I was able to figure out a few things, for example "banco" in Portuguese is both bench and bank. As well "cortada" means "cut" (feminine past participle), without realizing this the joke would not make any sense.

I hope that the feedback from those who have played so far is helpful in getting the release polished!

Well done

Thanks for the hint. I have

Spoiler

the paper and the coordinates from the globe but I can't figure out where the safe is. Someone in the hints said it was in the living room but I can't find it.

[close]

I would appreciate any help.

Spoiler

Behind the books on the bookcase

[close]

You guys give me too much credit! I didn't know that

Spoiler

you can enter the corridor. Once I saw that it was actually pretty easy to get in.

[close]

Thanks, guys

Shadow1000,

you have to

Spoiler

open the window in the Doctor's appartment, walk to the very left as Mia
while the Doctor is still in the kitchen

[close]

If you read the hints above, you will know what to do then !

I would NEVER have guessed that. Anyway, it's locked and nothing in inventory will open it. Any hints?

Shadow1000

Spoiler

Have you visited the secret room? And looked at everything?

[close]

Spoiler

Have you opened everything there? The door to the other room cannot be opened, but there is more.

Also, read carefully the messages when you touch things

[close]

No, I haven't. I looked around and don't see it. Where can I find it?

I made a lot of progress. I am finally

Spoiler

In the room with the deposit boxes. It says I need a key to open D-4. I tried the electronic key but it says only the key will work. I had Mia search De Marco's apartment while he was in the kitchen but still no key. My first guess actually was the key holder near the door but not there. Any hints?

[close]

Mia's actions are 3 days in the past, while Lucas' actions are done in the present. So Mia can prepare the stage for Lucas' actions.

Crap..I actually didn't know that. rhat pulls together a LOT of what's going on. I actually was wondering why her clothes were different between the office and on the street. So when they meet in the office, is that in the present or past...?

This game is actually HUGE and I love it !
You are on the right track !

Spoiler

I think things could be tightened up in terms of pacing. I did not like the endless dialogue or the huge amount of walking around but it seems that I am able to progress. Because of this I'm not even 100% sure what's going on in the game.

[close]

I'll come back when I need more hints.

Hey Shadow1000, glad to read that I am not the only one having trouble :-))

Spoiler

I don't remember which character has to give the note to the worker, try it with both,
you can interchange all items except cell phone and wallet

[close]

Yes! I just realized that

Spoiler

Mia can do things that Lucas can't and I got the ladder and bucket and cross sign. I guess I should try passing items around and retrying all actions I couldn't do before....sigh...

[close]

I am so completely lost that I don't even know what to ask.

Spoiler

the first part of finding the 3 clues was solid and coherent with some great puzzles. After that, I wasn't even sure if it was playable and was going to delete the game till I saw that some people progressed.

I spoke to all the people I could and the only clear objectives are to get to the bank deposit box and into the RV.  Other than that I don't even know what to ask. I have the bank records, wrench, gloves, ice cubes, cross sign, ladder and bucket and that's about all.

[close]

Any help appreciated!

The poem says

Spoiler

"...three steps" -> press only three buttons
...
"...in three lines" -> buttons are arranged in three lines

[close]

if you are still stuck

Spoiler

first button: five lifes but keep three -> press third button from the left
second button: 2
third button add one -> 3
turn knob to the left to open the safe

[close]

Thank you! I finished the game

Spoiler

I don't think I would have gotten on my own that "add one" means to add to the previous line

[close]

Other than the safe puzzle, the game was pretty straightforward.

I'm playing the game but stuck at the same place. The author cleared out all posts on the topic. I'm hoping someone remembers!

I stumbled upon this game and got stuck at the same location as faerieevenstar

Spoiler

I found the safe and have the poem, seems that the numbers are actually the code, but with the three rows of buttons without any indication I just fail opening it.

[close]

And one minute later I found out. Do *exactly* as written in the poem

How did you download it? The link doesn't seem to work. I think the author really wanted to disappear!

Good day to all
what was the title of this post? neither in the wayback machine i can find if and i'm curious to understand for which games was this post.

Thanks

How strange. It looks like A tale of a legacy
