Hi. I have gotten back to the game and have hit another snag. No one will talk and I can't go any farther. I took a peek at the WT. Is the letter of regret supposed to go into document inventory? My letter reads right, I think, but it goes back into the trash can.

Thanks,
Terri

Terri when the letter of regret is put together correctly, it will go into inventory and stay there for you. Check your edges first, that's the most likely spot for an error.
Good luck

Sue

Well, I should have gone back and just clicked on that puzzle box. I have now finished the game. I really enjoyed it - different ending that what I was expecting, but Poirot always makes them interesting. Thanks again for the help.

Butterfly

Thanks Sue. That was the problem, had to move two edge pieces. I finished the game. It was okay, not real crazy about the AC games.

Hello please can you help me?l'm in end of act 6,l finish the box puzzle, l go to Leathercombe bay, l make the analyse and l find that packet of power is heroin! so... after this nothing more happened and l don't see Kenneth Marshall calling to wake up Linda! nothing happened!!!!!! what l need to do?

fatima,

Check your documents to see what other task needs to be done, characters in red letters and read other documents collected.
Still have problems - ask the finger of suspicion.

I am stuck in Act 1, I have read your walkthrough and cannot find Linda Marshall. I have spoken to everyone else. Please tell me how can I find Linda Marshall exactly?

I saw the broken ladder that leads to a beach, ballet teacher on the beach, rude Mr.North where Poriot refuses to wade, and the 3 men on the beach, with the lovers in the water floating. I went to the beach by the monestary and no one is there. Went to the beach where chairs are but no one is sitting, up the road where the 3 paths are, if I remember correct and nothing can be done yet.

i have had no problems yet, do you suggest I patch the game? If so does the game have to be reinstalled to do so?

Thank you in advance
Sherryah
mission accomplished finished Lost Crown.

Edit @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Update Never mind, I found Linda Marshall,

Good, Sherryah.

i am stuck in act 2 at the pharmacy/bookstore/
How do I get the cat to move to get the letter behind the cats tail?

How do I recieve my telegraph that I sent for the money to buy the book?

Thanks in advance, following walkthrough but it just says to click on the letter and Poirot says "ah, but the cat is in the way."

I have been to the pub and spoken to all inside.

Try getting the sandwich from the pub and getting the dog into the post office .Hope this helps

i did that, thanks for letting me know what the dog eats. LOL
Now I am stuck in Act 4, fixed the car and did everything exactly in the order as the walkthru said to do. However even with 2 restarts I cannot get Poroit to listen at the door of linda Marshall with the stethoscope and hear Kenneth typing. What am i doing wrong? Finger says I am to eavesdrop on Kenneth and walkthru says it is at his door.

I tried to open the door from the hallway and of course it is locked and not allowed to use stethoscope to listen at door. I tried Marshall's balcony door and still not allowed to listen or open it. Please advise or send me a save game. Thank you in advance.

I have not patched the game and it has worked beautifully until this part.

Sherryah

Sherryah was the car still there when you left the area? Please check your journal and make sure it's current. You may have missed a conversation tree with someone.

Sue

everything is checked off on my list Sue, including cleaning the points on majors car. Is this what you mean? Thanks for trying to help me.
Edit ..............................................
Sue, the car is no longer in the garage in answer to your question I went back to look. I never patched this game because it has played beautiful thus far.

thank you Mag! your help was very good! l finish the game today!

No need to patch the game Sherryah. But yes, that was what I wanted to know....if the car was in the garage or gone. Have you found the buried treasure yet? See if you can't talk to any and all characters that you find hanging around.

Sue

yes, I found the 3 golden you know what, (don't want to spoil it for others) I have been in the secret tunnel, had sketch made of north, and just gave it to the detective. I followed the walkthru step by step. What next? car is gone. no one wants to talk to me. Poor Poroit must be feeling rejected.

Did you use the 3 golden ones already Sherryah?


Bernard

Yes I did Bernard and I got in the secret tunnel and retrieved the luminous coat. Thank you for trying to help also. If I don't find out what is wrong, I am asking for a save game to act 5 unpatched please.

Go to Poirots office and use the finger of suspicion please.

Sue

I did Sue, and it says I need to eavesdrop on Kenneth. Talk to Weston, I have given the sketch to him of North already. What next? Below is what has not happened yet, I followed MaG walkthru step by step and yet I must eavesdrop on Kenneth at his door. That is the hallway door right? I tried both balcony and hallway door to Marshes.

Edit...........................................

Also according to walkthru below has not happened yet, although I gave sketch to Weston.

Leathercombe Bay

Police - Home Guard: Go down and to the end of the road. Enter the door by the fountain.

Talk to Colonel Weston about North's sketch. (I did this already after I got stuck.}

Seadrift Island:

Automatically, be back at the side of the hotel on the path going to Rocky beach.

Hear the pipes on the wall making gurgling noise. Somebody is having a bath.

Can someone send a unpatched act 5 please?

EDIT.................................................

OH my gosh, I Just realized I have been trying to get into Linda Marshall's room and I need room 4 Kenneth Marshall's room! Where is his room that I am to eavesdrop at? please give me exact instructions, and whether it is inside or outside.

EDIT......................................................

jumping for joy! I did it, the problem was I didn't realize he isn't in Linda Marshall's room. Thank you and big hugs to all who tried to help me. I figured it out, but feel so stupid I didn't get it sooner.

Look at the map of the hotel and you will now where to go. Eavesdrop at the inside door.


Bernard

I did it Bernard, at last I am in Act. 5. Big relief and feel oh so dumb not to have caught my mistake before. thanks for everyone who cared.

ROFL Sherryah...glad you caught your mistake.

Sue
