Congrats, Rosie on finishing the game.

Has anyone found all 7 treasures?  The most I've found is 6.

Rosie,

Spoiler

Have you already been captured by the cannibals?  If you've gotten, past that part there isn't anything more to do in the village (but there is a treasure in the village that you can get.

In the graveyard: make sure that you look at all of the graves AND talk to the android about all of them.  There is something buried in one of the graves that will help you make the hot air balloon.  You can't dig directly on the grave without getting killed.  You will need protection for your head and something thorny to mark the grave with so you know which one to dig.  Talk to the artist for more clues about how to dig in the right grave.

The lava pool: is for use later.  You can capture the hot air in what you dig up from the grave to make the balloon.

Fuel source: You need to beat the store owner at insult winetasting.  You will need a game manual in order to do this.  Try digging on the red X if you haven't already done so.

All of these clues should help you complete the game

How do I get Defender into the building? I can't find any way to disable the lasers. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Spoiler

Do you have a mirror

I need another hint........ I keep going around and aroundÃ,  My score says 3Ã,  and on the bottom is the number 8

rosie, I can be of more help if you tell me what you've accomplished so far

Spoiler

do you have those things that I listed above - something to form a balloon with (like a large sheet), an alternator, the propeller, the compass, and a fuel source.  I think those numbers mean that you have found 3 treasures and have died 8 times - those numbers won't affect you actually finishing the game but it will change the end sequence that you get to see (the higher your score, the better the ending).

Sorry, ignore this post - I'm past the part where I was stuck.  I'm working on the labyrinth now.

Have you found all of the treasures yet?Ã,  To get the best ending you have to die 13 times and find 7 treasures.Ã,  I have found all of the treasures except one so maybe you can help me out with that.Ã,  If you just want to finish the game:

Spoiler

Have you found a way to make the hot air balloon yet? The artist gives you hints on what you need to make it - something to hold the hot air (like a balloon), a propeller, a generator, and a fuel source.Ã,  You need to have all thos things in your inventory to finish the game.Ã,

Let me know if you need a more specific hint

Rosie,

Spoiler

Have you entered the cave where you captured the butterfly?  You should be able to enter it if you have the lantern.

Thanks splat44

I thought you had to steal the whistle from the store.  I forgot that the artist could make it for me

Has anyone found all the treasures?  I am missing one of them

Spoiler

I have the eggplant emerald, jeweled flamingo, ruby medallion, golden butterknife, ruby leech, and Farr diamond.  I'm not sure where the last treasure is - when I take the crown I end up dying so I don't think that's one of the treasures.  Is the seaweed used for anything?  That's the only thing in my inventory (other than the blue cup) that hasn't been used

[close]

Has anyone completed this game yet?  I heard there may be a walkthrough on the website but it's been down for quite a long time so I can't access it.

Spoiler

I can't figure out how to get the crocodile whistle.Ã,  So far I have found 5 treasures and died 12 times.Ã,  I think i've accessed almost every location except the area past the crocodiles and the thick jungle next to the start screen which I'm not sure I can access anyway.

Regarding the cursor issue...you're saying the icon bar doesn't turn on when you bring the mouse cursor to the top of the screen?Ã,  I haven't heard that one before...

Yep, that's exactly what happens.  The last couple of times quitting and reloading the game didn't seem to help.  I eventually figured out that using "ctrl-I" would bring up the inventory so I was finally able to finish the game.

Other than the buggy issues it's a really great game.  And it shows how good your game really is if I wanted to continue playing it despite all the challenges. 

No one seems to have brought this up yet so I don't know if it is just me...

Everytime I save my game, the game uses a brand new save slot which eventually results in me not being able to save at all unless I manually enter the game folder and delete the older saves to make room for new saves.Ã,  I orginally thought this was due to me having version 1.1 but I've now downloaded 1.2 and have the exact same problem.

I can work around this problem by just not saving as frequently or just manually deleting files occasionally but it's an annoying little bug.

Other than that, I'm really enjoying this game so far.Ã,  Good work!Ã, 

Found another bug as I continues playing: sometimes the cursor bar at the top disappears which means that I can't access my inventory.  I usually have to exit and restore and the tool bar will reappear randomly.

I think I've gotten pretty far but I'm stuck:

Spoiler

I'm  trapped in the jail cell - I have the bandage, the file, the journal, and a chunk of concrete.  The game won't allow me to throw the concrete at the guard or use it on the jail bars.  There doesn't seem to be anything else I can interact with other than the bench.

the sword is stuck in a stone in the village, you need something from the princess's room to loosen the sword,Ã,  the scroll is in a place called Rangers Forest I think, its on the map

[close]

Thanks so much.  I guess I had to look more carefully for all the hot spots.

I think I've done things a bit out of order but I need some help

Spoiler

How am I supposed to get this scroll that everyone on this board is talking about?  I have already foiled the assassins and gotten all of the items except the tooth.  The dragon is dead but I cannot get the tooth - I have a stick, ID card, pencil, and sword in my inventory.  I don't have a "bow" which according to the previous hints I'm supposed to use to loosen the tooth.

Thanks for your help.  I hope it's not a bug.

Sorry, I figured everything out on my own so I deleted my previous posts asking for help.

Miryoku, Thank you so much, that worked.....

No problem, Rosie.    Have fun playing.  I finished the game last night so if you need any hints just ask.

Cannot seem to download this game.Ã,  Shame that you spent so much time on it and we can't seem to download it.Ã,  Anything else you can do for us?

Rosie, this is the link that worked for me: http://rapidshare.de/files/1679530/sosk.zip.html
It's kind of a complicated process so I'll try to explain it as best as I can.

Scroll down and you'll see a graph with two columns where you choose the download type (one saying "free" and the other saying "premium").  Select the "free download".  You will then we taken to the next page - you'll notice that if you scroll down there is something saying that you have selected the file "sosk.exe" to download.  It also indicates that you have to wait about a minute to download it and the timer starts counting down (I'm not sure if this is affected by the speed of your connection - I only had to wait about a minute but I have a really fast connection).  The file will then start downloading after the allotted time and then you can extract it as you normally would.

I hope that helps.    Otherwise, you may have to wait until a new link is provided.

Thanks for the tip, Steph, I didn't realize I could pick that up - duh!  I think it's tough because in this game, sometimes the hotspots are highlighted by text and sometimes they aren't.  And sometimes you can't look at things, but you can pick them up.

Ok... found a bug I think.

Spoiler

Ã,  I'm talking to the waiter in the restaurant, and he just keeps looping the same thing over and over, and i can't get out of the conversation.

[close]

Hmm...I didn't encounter that bug. However...

Spoiler

What question are you asking the guy specifically?Ã,  I know that you have to select the question regarding his birthdate to get out of the conversation.Ã,  But if it just keeps looping, then I don't really know.

TryÃ,  http://rapidshare.de/files/1679530/sosk.zip.html

Does not work.

I was able to download using that link although I was a little bit confused how to do so for a little bit.Ã,  If you aren't a member of rapidshare you have to wait about 1 minute before your download initiates, but you can still download it without joining.Ã,  Just click on the "free" button.

Looks like I'm the only one playing this game so far but I'm stuck:

Spoiler

When I try to enter he secret passage it says that I have an item missing?  I'm not sure exactly what it could be.  I have the map (analyzed), old document (translated), golden shoes, shovel, ID card, and I think that's it.  I used the coins in the jukebox

It looks like everyone's enjoying episodes 8 and 15 but I thought I would start from the beginning.Ã,  Has anyone completed this game so far?Ã,  I would really appreciate some help because I'm stuck:

Spoiler

How do I get the key to Britney's room? I have the pen, honey, envelope with stamp and address on it, vacuum cleaner, remote control, two sofa cushions, and my wallet.

Ã, 

Thanks.

Update:Ã,  So sorry - I didn't realize that there was an earlier thread.Ã,  I searched for it earlier but for some reason didn't find it until now.Ã,  My apologies - I know how annoying
this can be.  Here's the link for those of you who may have trouble finding it: Ã,  http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=19942.0
