Hello Potch!
Hope, you didn't give up. But

Spoiler

if you still have problems with that dog... Go to the mailboxes. Behind them, to the right, is a gate. Flip the latch and enter. Search the ground and pick up a toy (you can do this only after you have tried to enter the post office). Use the toy on the ramp, to the right of this fr.. dog.

Did you find the stone in front of the church? I mean, at the big closed door. Search the ground to the left of that door. It should be easy to break the window of the trailer at the junk yard.

Put the mushroom on the rotting log. This should give you a hint...

Potch,
most old games run quite well with DOSbox.
http://dosbox.sourceforge.net
And D-Fend is a good front end to set up the environment of a game

In the locker where you saw the note, you can take a pencil.

Then go to south and you enter the hall of the chapel. Have a good look. Also look at the bench to you left.

There are also other items in front of the church and at the graveyard.

Ida,

Have you been to the statue at the mine field? Touch it, it will give you a clue:

At the end of the cut scene, an instructor throws a bucket full of water at you.

Did you also try the telephone and askthe boss  for instructions?

Hope this helps

This game looks great!
Unfortunately, I am stuck, too

I picked the mushroom (several times) and fed it to the rat. You can put the mushroom in the mouth or onto the decaying log. Anyway, I can't catch the rat. The coin: probably we have to separate it from the stone? I can also put it in the mouth, but without the chain, the machine cannot be startet.

Did you find your mailbox? Second from right group of boxes, left row, in the middle. Click on the mailboxes until you find yours and then open it with the key. You will find a letter and a postcard. Read the postcard. Then you will have finished the game

Thank you!
Probably I made a mistake when I tried the different tunes...

I am stuck, too

Spoiler

I've solved the puzzle with the man on the stretch bench and the puzzle with the fruits. Now I got to symbols in the upper right list, the man and a tree. I can't seem to find the right sheet music for the flowers and bees. To the right of the tree, I  can raise Van Goghs ear a little bit, but that is all I can do. I couls also enter the cave with the piano, but I am stuck there, too

Any hint how I can get a little further?

Spoiler

switch the light on. The switch is next to the door, a bit of a pixel hunt.
Search the upper left corner with your mouse.

I also hat a problem at this stage of the game.
So I first went back to the embankment and spoke to the man again and clicked at several hotspots. Then I went back to the river. At the river you will see only one bird. When it arrives at the far left of the screen record the cry.

What to do with the tank

Spoiler

Get a crowbar first, then break open  the door next to the house with the car.
In that house you will find a watering can among other things :-)

Save often and

Spoiler

on the first screen, do not walk onto the steps, but go left instead.
on the next screen, simply follow him
on the third screen, hide behind the second house on the left (in the background)
the problem is that you may loose him
there are a few other screens, and this is not easy at all, but eventually, you will follow him to a garden
