I seem to be stuck in about the same place as Ozwalled with one additional problem:

Spoiler
I cannot get into the March Hare's house!? Can someone please give me a hint.

Spoiler

You only need an invitation and then ring the doorbell...

I don't remember exactly but I think there is no page in the chest.

Why not try to use all your inventory items again?
I think I found my last page there... more by chance, actually...

I tried the screwdriver on the jammed part of the pipe, but no dice. I also tried shoving items into the pipe to flush out the blockage, but that didn't seem to work either. I figured I might be able to talk to the Smith to get a hacksaw or something, but there isn't any new topics that came up with him.

If you need any more info, I can give more.

Spoiler

The screwdriver was a good idea, but there is something else more effective.
And - as far as I remember - it is just hanging around somewhere (in case you haven't picked it up yet).

I enjoyed these games (although travelling around felt a bit slow), and look forward to more from you. :)

Great to hear that  :D

Actually, I'm thinking about another adventure, but I want this one to be better than both of the old ones so I'm taking a bit more time... I don't have anything to show so I won't say anything more yet. ;-)

Yup. Case closed.
I'll have to watch for that in future.

Hmmm, I never realized I used similar mechanizms in both adventures...

But great to hear that you managed both games on your own.

Only slightly confused,

Now I must re-comment that last one... I wil try to do some fixes on it during the weekend, if I find any major bugs or lacks or anything, and for Minimi I'll try to animate the end battle... not to raise my chances in winning! :P You know... I seem to jump from no-my-comp to not-my-comp today... gotta get back on on my own to see if there's something I can do with my game...  ::)

Hi, TK

Nice game... but... well, maybe if you edit it anyway, could you change the talking colur of the main character? Dark blue on black is so hard to read!

Bye,

Hi, just meddling! ;)

Can anyone explain the process of the award to me (someone who joined the community during the current year).

I mean: Who decides who is nominated and who decides about the final winner and how?
Also: When is it decided? It puzzles me to have all the 2002 games still in the nominated stage. Shouldn't the final decision be shortly after the nomination?
Or is this just due to the webmaster's lack of time?

So, just enlighten me. ;-)

Bye,

Straston

Hi straston,
Spoiler
To remove the tiles in the bathroom, you have to use the machete, thats part of the 'evil-twin detector'
[close]

Thanks, I already managed it on my own. :)

...and finished the game.
It was great. :)

cmon, I CLEANED IT!!! Damn.... just play it! :P

OK, nice and "cute" game... just two strange things:

1. Puddy always faces the wrong direction when talking to anyone...

Spoiler

2. I tried the friendly ending with the map and still get the "you throw the spear" winning screen...

Once you figure this puzzle out, you'll feel like the rug has been pulled out from under you!

;D Thank you for your help.

Now, I'm stuck on day 5:

Spoiler

How do I remove the tiles in the bathroom?
I have in my inventory: books on white and black magic, teddy, lockpick, apron, scissors, and the "evil-twin-detector". I definitely miss the pickaxe!

Hmmmm... I'm stuck again.

Spoiler


I am on the fourth day.
When I enter the bathroom, Simone follows me, than the killer arrives and kills me...
I only have the teddy, the lockpick and the book. I tried to sting the teddy with the lockpick, but there is a "I don't see why I should". Is there any place to learn about voodoo or something?

I am already stuck at the beginning.

Spoiler


I have the grolly, stick, cord and newspaper.

The guy told me to collect all the people.
I have talked to Simon already, but I can't find any other person in the house.

All the places are empty - I have been
upper floor: safe room, bathroom, hall
lower floor: entrance hall, kitchen (found the salt), garden (near the pool), garden with holes, room with dishes and books, TV room, hunting room.

Anywhere else I can go or anything I can do?

Well I think I fixed it.  I uploaded the new version.  Would you mind trying it again to see if I got to?



Works Ok now. :-)

I've been to the bathroom, have firing form, put Wally's name in it, but...

I don't have the concert ticket (where do I get it?)
How do I get thru the clerk at the hotel?
[close]

Spoiler


You have to wake the lawyer... you have to go to the back of the hotel for that... and you don't wake him with noise. ;)

You get the ticket in front of the hotel room. (From one of the posters...)

GRRRREEEEAT game, btw.


I agree with that. :)
#36
Well, OK... ;-)

I think I found a bug though:

Spoiler


If you look at the rock and then leave the place without using the sun oil, you will not find the hole again when you come back. I think you should fix that because it's quite annoying having to start the whole game again.  (I had to the first time...)

Actually, I would have also preferred a little twist in the end... it's somehow a bit too simple. But, well, that's probably a matter of taste.

[close]

Nice game anyway,

Straston

I like both, though the second has the danger to become too arbitrary...
You seem to have most ideas for the first one, so better begin with that.

Actually, why not include the mouse puzzle from the second game into the first? It can be an obstacle on a way to the weapons.

I like the game too, but I'm stuck.

Spoiler

How do I get the engine for the boat?
I have the debit card and the bottle opener with string.
The monkey won't let me have the engine, so I probably have to enter
the jail...
But I can't pass the outer gate.
I also don't know what to do with the clothes on the line...

island
[close]
But I can only access 2 sites
Spoiler
the harbour and the Songo well. Can't do much in either. I can't give the guard or the punk any of the stuff I'm carrying and although there's something with Songo's right eye can't get to it!
[close]
So obviously I've missed something but I'm not sure which/ what. I've come back to Villmont but no-one is interested in Songo! ???
Thanks for your help again, Kediri :)

As I just finished the game, maybe I can help...

Spoiler


There are just 2 places on that island.
You should have something in your inventory to magnify the right eye.
But better save the game there.... you can die easily!
