Thumbs Up... for releasing this game as freeware!
Thanks You... for the whole series!
Congratulations... you made my day!

Only I feel -a little bit- disappointed if this will be ¿really? the last part... You should consider starting a project on http://www.kickstarter.com/ to collect some money and then to be able to continue working on another part! Guess, there will be lots of fans supporting you with the project!

[positioning or timing problem to solve?]

about fighting dragons...

Spoiler

if its true and only super powers are allowed to use, I wonder if I might have a positioning or timing problem to solve? There are two powers available and I guess to use first fire power and second earthquake, in order to hit the dragon with the falling rock. But the time is too short to hit him and whenever earthquake power is used, he turns to the side and then its quite difficult (and it takes me too long) to turn Martyn back in position for another front fire shot - meanwhile the dragon moved back again or disappeared.

I'm having trouble not only with the multiple assignments but there's a letter in there that doesn't exist on the vase!


SHADOW

@Shadow:
All you said is true. Just check out the wikipedia link that I posted a few messages before and be a bit more creative with the characters you have identified so far. For me it worked out and the first name I took from the list was the correct one

Spoiler

to open the cave entrance.

.

FYI:

Spoiler

The german edition of wikipedia offers a !full list of egyptian gods!, including their assigned hieroglyphes
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_%C3%A4gyptischer_G%C3%B6tter - unfortunately there is none matching the given code.

[close]

Spoiler

... I do have in mind the hieroglyphs of the pyramid and I remember that guy in the dessert, who told me to make some money out of the egypt jewels ...

[close]

That's pretty good!
...now you just need something else to help you translate them:

Spoiler

... and you'll  need  an egyptian vase to do this.

[close]

about the red berries at the tree

Spoiler

... if you spent your earned money already, you now have the two needed items for this.
One gives you the chance to cut them off and the other one makes it possible for you to reach them. 

[close]

hmm...

Spoiler

it seems that I cant afford to buy the only available vase in the game and I have not yet found a way to get more money.

[close]

I'm stuck in Egypt.

I'm trying to:

Spoiler

get to the lost pyramids by camel

[close]

I have: [the star map I took from the nunnery and the map I drew from the telescope[/spoiler]

I already:

Spoiler

got the combination of constellations from the fortune teller from the stones from the Bedouin

[close]

But I have no idea

Spoiler

what to do with all that information. I would think that by looking at the star map, I would be able to follow the paths based on the stone combination but I can't imagine that the pattern in the sky is supposed to correspond to the constellations. If it is, I can't identify any star patterns so I must be missing something. To make it more difficult, you only get about 2 minutes to complete it because it turns light very quickly

[close]

Thank you

SHADOW

You are on the right track with the map and the night sky. It took me some time as well...

Spoiler

actually the night sky will show you the right way, if you figure out how to use it.

[close]

hope that helps, regards.

At the moment,

Spoiler

I got stuck while trying to open the cave (I need to type in something and I already tried out the code of the paper and of the chest key) and still I cannot manage to get the red berries off the tree... tried with the mule, the snake, the rope on the tree and lots of other things. I do have in mind the hieroglyphs of the pyramid and I remember that guy in the dessert, who told me to make some money out of the egypt jewels - but it seems I need them for the cave . Also, have been back to Italy & Egypt... So far, I could not find anybody able to talk with me about all these subjects, nor any additional clue.

[close]

about snake-hint ingame ...

Spoiler

... it is told to Martyn by an inhabitant of Egypt, when you ask for to get a snake 

[close]

about whales-hunting ...

Spoiler

... I am the worst whales-hunter you can think about , but the ship is not only sinking after crashing into the whale, there's also o rock you need to avoid â€" and if you really hit the whale from correct position, it will die and you'll get some money  - it will  be told, if you succeed. Good luck!

[close]

Yes, you were right and

Spoiler

I have not seen the rock, probably because I went whale hunting during the night. Now, I killed the whale, got the helmet and managed to catch the mole (what a funny event, haha). On my way back to Egypt.

[close]

who would have thought of all these adventures at the beginning of the game. Fantastic story and addictive gameplay!

what you need for the snake:
!!not only a hint!!

Spoiler

... asking how to get a snake you will be told to buy or catch one. Since there is no snake to buy you need to catch/steal one.  You already saw one, so we'll go “the easy way” and steal it.

The very special trick that grants you success for to catch it is a mole, because they love this delicatesse - so you need to find (and catch) a mole to be able to distract it with that yummy thing. 

[close]

Thanks for your kind support...

Spoiler

but how do I know /or can figure out/ that the mole is needed for the snake? Found no clue so far.

[close]

meanwhile, I am...

Spoiler

sailing in the north sea and trying to hunt some whales. Got the instructions and managed to kill 1 whale, but as soon as the ship crashes there is no whale left in the inventory. Also, it seems that the boat sinks most times for no reason...even wehen there is no whale in sight![/hint]

[close]

Guess I already got the hint

Spoiler

that I need to have a snake in order to defeat the scorpion (natural enemy)

[close]

That's right so far, but for the snake ...

Spoiler

... you also need something special to distract it.

[close]

Also, I already tried to:

Spoiler

use the rope, get an instrument from the archlord, use my powers...now I will check back on the owl!

[close]

You are doing pretty well! 

about snake charmer/snake

just a little hint

Spoiler

... an inhabitant might be able to give you a hint.

[close]

a little bit more

Spoiler

... it's something to distract the snake you will  need and you won't find it in Egypt.

[close]

Guess I already got the hint

Spoiler

that I need to have a snake in order to defeat the scorpion (natural enemy)

[close]

and had the very same idea to go abroad again, but

Spoiler

back at home he still wont let me pick up the sticks nor the rag.

[close]

Right now...

Spoiler

I am searching for a way to distract the snake charmer or the snake in order to get his flute or to be able to catch the snake for then defeating a poisoned scorpion with it. Any suggestions?

[close]

Spoiler

Squeeze the berries in your inventory. The rest should be obvious

[close]

Spoiler

mortar and pestle

[close]

Geez...I thought that was one of the first things I tried! Thank you...

SHADOW

I could swear the very same for the ink and for at least another item.

Spoiler

There are items where he states about "I dont need it at the moment" and thats ok, because you will keep this in mind and try them out later on in the game. But if I remember right, so far I had two items where he first said "No way!" and afterwards they worked out fine. I mean for exploring a game world, it makes a huge difference in getting a "I dont know WHY (to do something - at the moment)" or "No way!". As for the last statement you would not expect any gamer to repeat and try it out a second time.

[close]

Anyway, its still such a great game that I enjoy a lot... thanks to Romeo! 

BTW:

Spoiler

The keyword "ink" helped me to work out the letter and its stamp. Now I am going to do some exorcism. hehe"

[close]

No, I dont feel stuck in Venice. So I wont need any further hint on this - at least for the moment.

Right now I am trying to figure out...

Spoiler

what to do with the "Coats of Arms", that I found inside the crypt.

[close]

@Tabata: Dont know how you helped me... Anyhow, I advanced in the game!

Spoiler

Thought I already spoke to everybody about everything, were to all places at all times, tried out all my powers, interacted with all my items and to any hotspot in all combinations... but now I finally managed to arrive in Italy. (still I have not earned any money)

[close]

Really nice game: entertaining story, logical puzzels and a great atmosphere. Thanks for such a masterpiece!

Would appreciate any help or hint:

Spoiler

Already I can see the red berries, but I have not figured out how to grab them. Guess I need to scare the owl somehow... but I cant climb the tree with the rope.

[close]

Spoiler

What todo about the monster stone relief? How can I enter the cave?

[close]

Thanks.

RESPECT for the work on this game! Very nice, entertaining game. Good puzzles and good story.  Big thanks to the author.

Puddle of the river house :

hint

Spoiler

search the room of the safe in the river house.

[close]

solution

Spoiler

search the window in the room of the safe. You'll find a doll. Use it on the puddle

[close]

@Darkan: I am still looking for something that is needed to solve the office puddle. So far I am quite sure to have all available items, but none of them works out here. And also I am aksing myself if there is "anything" that I can do to the paper wall - except reading them... but then why have I opened the door at all? Inside the office all carpets are looking just normal. Where can I get the needed item for solving the puddle in Greedys office? Thanks!
