Finished it with 158/160!Very good game and quite lengthy!Looking forward for the next part!Especially:

Spoiler
I liked the gps ridle,the multible uses of your cell phone a)in some excellent riddles(answering machine,doctor distraction) and b)getting the optional help by your wife,also the whole picturegram riddle was gorgeous and i loved the scored gameplay,reminded me of sierra on-line games!

On the opposite side some minor bugs that you probably already know:

Spoiler
I have a 4/3 monitor and when i hightlight objects near the bottom of the screen their name arent viewable.In two occasions i got stuck for a while a)when i fell from the ladder behind the bar the name of the rod from the ladder wasnt viewable so i thought at first that it was just background scenery and b)in the substation the scarf and bottom track hotspots also werent visible.An other minor problem when you enter a area you cant leave immediatly by the same exit,but instead move forward a little and and come back to the exit.Lastly when i use the scarf on the cat at the hotel i dont get a possible answer.I didn't actually grasp what to do with the scarf,but i guess the two points i lost had to do with this item(V.B.?)...:)

how do i find light to go back to the sewers??
#23
OK found it

Spoiler
It was the three symbols that didnt belong to the corresponding indetation-category but you had to press the tile-reset button after...a little strange i my opinion,i think it would be better for the chest to just open automatically,Clever though!

Excellent Game!Nice solid,original puzzles!I am near the end(131/160), i am stuck though and would appreciate a little help:

Spoiler
I am in the sewers and try to open the stone chest.There are three indetations marked 1,2,3 with the apropriate dots.Now i think each number corresponds for a specific category in the book.There are five symbols for each indetation.In each indetation 4 symbols belong to the corresponding category and one belongs to an other category.So for the first indetation (marked with one dot) the first,second,forth and fifth symbol belong to the first category in the book whereas the third symbol belongs in the second...and so on for the other indetations.In the top and bottom of the chest are two rows of symbols with obvious meanings that maybe link to a combination for the chest(each row for a corresponding lock left and right?).So for example the heart shaped thing would be the symbol corresponding to love,so the first symbol in the first indetation.First thing i tried was putting the three symbols that dont much their corresponding category in each indetation=symbol category but didn't work.Second thing i tried was trying all combinations of three(took me 40 seconds),didnt work.Then i took the combination theory...tried firstly the top row and clicked the symbols one by one in the correct order(from left to right), then the bottom row, nothing.I took the two curled lines as the sea-water symbol(second indetation third symbol) the fish thingy as meal-feast-heal-help symbol(first indetation third symbol) the heart thingy as love (first indetation first symbol) the mountain thingy as earth-land (third indetation first symbol) the star thingy as luck(second indetation first symbol) the skull thingy as death-silence (first indetation fifth symbol) and the human thingy as person-people-man-woman (second indetation fifth symbol).Also tried fish thingy as money-riches-health (literal or no , First indetation second symbol) cause a)fish=food would be in a sense health and riches for a tribal man b)the symbol had a notice scribed under it(literal and not) and it striked me as strange and c) the symbol i used before(meal-feast-heal-help) did not belong to the corresponding category(first indetation  but second category) but once again nothing.Also noticed that at the bottom row there is the human thingy symbol whereas in the top there isnt  and that all the symbols repeat eather two times or three, but dunno if all this is keen to the solution...Could you help a little here,maybe pointing me to the correct route?Thanks!!!

hello. i run into a peculiar bug playing the game and cannot finish it:

Spoiler
So after i left the treasure room with the stone and i escaped the wizard hanging on the tapistry...i go into his room,so i hide in the scenery,leaving a reflection of me on the mirror and wait for the wizard to hop in and fall for the old baba-yaga trick, but the game crashes every time and i have this message: in "room5.asc" , line 141 Error: Character.loop: invalid loop number for this view"

Very cool game,simple and fun.It anchieves what it wants without extra info that could ruin the atmosphere,just straightforward telling an intersting story,which doesn't let you to stop playing till the end.Reminds me of defoe series.Also the "real time" sequences are interesting , refreshing and not tiresome to the player,granding an even greater climax to the shenario and atmosphere.A sequel would be nice,maybe a prequel explaining some background on the killer and protagonist.Finishing the game couldn't stop feeling some holes in the shenario about the past of the characters...Looking forward for other cool adventures,thank you!
