I will close this thread. It is getting long.
Please start a new thread if you have additional questions.
Also please use the spoiler tag only when it is really a spoiler - a solution to a complicated puzzle. There are spoiler tags here in this thread that are overkill. Picking up things, inventory and where they are are not spoilers.
Hints are just that hints. Feel free to post them as is.
Hints guide the gamer. Spoilers are solutions to the puzzle.
Some solution does not need to be in spoiler tags too.
Thanks and remember - playing a game is supposed to be fun - So ENJOY and do not feel that you have to struggle to get through the game.
