I can't figure out how to get rid of the second dog in front of the castle.

Spoiler
I read a walkthrough saying that I need to et the cactus from the lady by knocking on her door, then taking it. What cactus? What am I supposed to do here? Anyway, I have a box, a pen, a shovel, something that I don't remember what it is (I think it says BEE on it, but I'm not sure), and the potion that Eggman mixed for me.

Thanks for your help.

I tried the map on sign and lake no luck, in my inventory i have cash, mortar & pestle, box of matches, cup of coffee, beer bottle full of moonshine, large knife, anti venom kit, medical tape, flower, pen, original map, and home made diving suit - am i missing something, thanks for your help.

Hi Tina,

I have checked my inventory and have exactly the same things.

I replayed the game from 138 to 148 to 157 points and it always works for me.

Have you switched maps using the flower on the man ???

Your home-made diving suit: use medical tape, oxygen tank, helmet ???

IF you did all that, then you don't have to use the map on sign or lake :) 

You just walk by the sign, read sign, and keep on walking to the far right side of screen...... use diving on Ben....you will come back from behind the big rock all dressed in diving suit. You get 'you quickly put on your diving suit' and then 'You take a deep breath of air and dive into the Salton Sea', then watch cut scenes and you end up in cell with George with 157 points. :)

If this doesn't work, I really don't know what else to tell you  :)

thanks, tried that but it says should make sure it is down there first he wont put on the suit any other ideas please

Yeah! well maybe you're missing something in inventory ???

I really don't know why it's not working for you as it did for me with the same points :-\

So let us know what you have in inventory and then we can compare and see if you are missing something. :)

Oh, this one does have a walkthrough...Ã,  ;D


Yes and thank you for it.  It's fun to play the game but it's a pain in the ass when you get stuck and just cannot go on with the game.  Most of the times it's a little detail that we have omitted and there is not always someone on line to help.  So that's why I say a walkthru is always helpful, almost a MUST.

This is just my opinion. :)

I think i have done everything but i only have 148 points i have swapped map, set up the diving suit and sorted out the balloon girl, am i missing something - help stuck..

Walk to your right, where the warning sign is, pass the sign then give him the diving suit, watch cut scene and you should be up to 157 points. :)

The red herring in Monkey Island was actually a meta-red herring. The fact that it was a red herring seemed like a clue that it had no purpose, when in fact it did, making the red herring-ness of the red herring a red herring.Ã,  ??? :P

The troll's explanations of what he wants ("I want something that distracts attention from what's really important") are real clues, on the other hand.

WOW!  now you really confused me :-\

By the way, I never played Monkey Island.  and I seem to be the only one that did not play it.  Where can I download it ???  Is it an AGS game ???

A "red herring" is something that looks like a clue, but leads nowhere. In an adventure game, that would be items or background objects that seem interesting but have no actual purpose - I think the fridge in Simon the Sorcerer 1 was one.

The red herring in Monkey Island was a joke about this - it actually was useful. You needed it to pass a troll blocking a bridge on Mêlée Island.

Thanks.  Appreciate your answer :)

It's a useless item you can get an infinite amount of in Monkey Island 1. It's been a while since I played it but I think you can go to catch it, then feed it to something, then catch it again and the cycle repeats indefinately. Used to refer to other useless/futile items, posts, etc.

Thanks for answering my post. :)

So if I understand correctly, you get these items, perhaps by luck, and you don't really need them in the game but you don't really know that they are useless :o

General Discussion / What is a 'RED HERRING'
Sun 11/07/2004 18:35:32
Can someone tell me what a 'RED HERRING' is exactly?Ã,  I see that often in the posts and in games.

Is it a puzzle in itself or just a trap ???

Sorry for my ignorance and please don't laugh at me :-[

Perhaps.

But i won't be making a walkthru. Ã, :P

That is a shame not to have a walkthru.Ã,  This was a Great game. I really enjoyed it and hope you make a new one soon. I like it when I can move around different areas/rooms. The more rooms the better for my liking.Ã,  :)Ã,  Ã, Great graphics and good puzzles.Ã,  I got stuck a few times but that's OK.Ã,  It makes it mores challenging. :)

I had posted before and got no answer and was very surprised but I had posted under 'AL GURBISH (nick it and run) which was my mistake and my 'search' did not help neither.  I don't understand but that's OK.  The importance is that I completed the game and enjoyed myself.

My point of view:  each game should have a walkthru. :)

nevermind

You were asking for help.  Then you solved it.  It would have been nice if you would have written how you solved it.  You probably would have helped other members.  I'm sure you would have liked someone else to help you if you would have stayed stuck.

Just a friendly comment.   :)

I know I have to take the sedative from the drugstore and the rope from the church. Only I can't. I can't think of anything to be done!

Please help.
Thanks!

Well so far, I did not succeed in getting rope from church and now I only have fishing line + magnet.Ã,  And I AM STUCK.

But for sedative, I got fishing line + magnet from sargeant's office. Go to well and fish for some coins (2) and go to pharmacy to get sedative.Ã,  Then I went back to church and passed the priest and used my fishing rod with magnet on hole and got holy rope.
Now this is what I did.Ã,  I don't know what else to do.Ã,  Maybe I should have done something else before.

So far, what I HAD in my inventory was, BLOODY SAW, FISHING ROD, HAMMER, 2 COINS, MUG, MAGNET, SEDATIVE & HOLY ROPE.Ã,  I have used them all. Only left with fishing rod + magnet and holy rope ... and the guys are still in jail.Ã, 

I have tried the rope with car but I get that it is a great idea but I need keys to get inside car. >:(

Hope I have helped a bit but if you have something different, PLEASE let me know. :)

I'm in the basement, have the smoke machine, matches, sophisticated mask but cannot use any of them. I am under the grate.Ã,  What am I missing.Ã,  I cannot light the smoke machine neither. I even have the elexir.Ã,  The walktru says USE sophisticated gas mask with the opening.Ã,  Do they mean the grate ???Ã,  If not, what opening are they talking about ???

Also, I'm supposed to use the blue tack behind Batman's poster to glue photo to passport.Ã,  Ã, Where is that Batman poster ???

Ok!  I have solved it.  I had to put smoke machine on shef, then light it, then open grate and use mask.

As for Batman's poster.....it was in the customs office. ::)

Throw sandwich in bush = 43/100
Leave then go back
You find hair = 47/100 :)
