You have to look at the monitor BEFORE the typing animation ends. There is no number of times you have to type.

Chill, esper,

Goto the main AGS site and look under Resources - downloads, lots or resources to get started.

You'll need something from the office, and the key to it all is to do with the 2nd landing

I guess it's not giving much away to say, including the gem, there are 10 treasures. And it is possible to give all of them to the King.

Joyce,
I just tested it on my 286 and yes it crawls, still only took 5 mins but game unplayably slow, should be 60 seconds. So I've made and new faster version that works fine, try this...

SlugPrincess

Wendy,
This has been fixed in the latest version, I do urge people to upgrade if it's possible. Wardrobe problem also corrected and a new puzzle added.

Sorry but there is no easy way to bypass this. Given the pattern of bubbles is always the same, a bit of practice will pay off. Learn the exact order then just keep at it, gets easier and easier.

Julie,
Final notes...

Under the sea, drawbridge,bell,Spider and the double horn. I forget the order.

Everyone,
Please upgrade the game. It really doesn't take long to replay when you know what to do.

Wendy,

The old version had a bug with the cabinet doors, where you actually have to have both doors OPEN to make the wardrode airtight.

Use the save game feature each time the Spider progresses.

sunshine, Mordalles,
I think maybe you both got bad downloads possibly because I was updating the file earlier. Try again it should be stable for a while now.

Later, first person to complete v1.04(+) of the game FULLY, that includes Slug Princess, (anyone got there yet?), will get a certificate

Good news. A new version is out (v1.04), with some major bug fixes. There were a couple of dead-end scenarios late in the game.
Bad new. It's another download and restart.
Good news. I've put a new puzzle with a couple of new inventory items, into the game to tie in the 3 unused rooms. (ok, this might be bad news to some ).

It's still quite possible to complete the game with the old versions, however you may not be able to get the best ending. And I do really appreciate your patience with me over these bugs. Pioneering new trails is always a risky business.

New version 1.04 is out.
A couple of major bug fixes, some minor ones, and a brand new puzzle which I didn't have time to add for MAGS version and neatly ties in 3 of the rooms that otherwise served no purpose.

Good, glad to hear it

You really shouldn't use things from the office(rusty key) until you have the office key, tempting as it is.

Ok. Could you hide those hints

Trish,
Thanks, I'll mend that asap.
By the way you do know about the office bug and as a work around, that you mustn't use anything from the office until you get the office key.

sunshine,
Just one more thing to do...

Jane,
I posted your hints about 5 posts ago, but mistakenly put Rosie's name at the top, sorry.
And thanks, there was a line of code missing in the girl on swing dialog, nothing of immportance.
Generally I'm happy to help with problems that I know have been solved, but I'd prefer the game to be completed without my handing out solutions. Sorry if this is frustrating but it is very valuable feedback to learn which bits are too hard or badly designed so that I can improve in future.
