I finally made it to the end.  I have 3 minutes left to figure out the crime. The pressure is killing me but I made it through all the puzzles. Quite the challenge I have to admit. Sherryah...thank you. I am no Sue or MaG when it comes to Hints and I was sitting here while I was trying to help, thinking how much I miss Sue here and off the board. <sigh> Chris, I am so glad it worked for you! btw...  to GameBoomers.

Bitty, it was more or less a trial and error. I can do it again and take a photo, but I am not sure it will help. I'll be back. EDIT: One Solution for String Puzzle.

I have a question about Level 4, Backstage. The box puzzle is driving me crazy. I followed the steps that MaG gave several posts back, but something isn't working. Could someone post again specifically how to move the tiles? I would appreciate it very much!!
Happy almost Mother's Day to all the Moms in Gameboomers Land!

Donna, MaG's post is the shortest way I could ever dream of coming up with. My way takes at least 100 moves. :loL: Try it again one by one and I'm sure it works. Others have used it and been successful. EDIT: YOu are talking about the tiles you move to create a number 4 like shape, right? Ana

Ana- I am talking about the Box Backstage in level 4 where you move two sets of tiles from R to L and L to right (the White and Black Tiles) Around page 4 of this thread, MaG gave instructions that are not working for me- WBBWW BBBB WWWWW BBBB WWW BB W I get so far, and then am at a standstill. It might just be me, but I can't get these instructions to work to the end.

MaG- I'm sorry- I did not type the written instructions from your post correctly- I did do all those steps that you mentioned and it bogged down for me somewhere- I will replay tomorrow, and if it doesn't work for my tiny little brain- I will post where it bogged down for me. Thanks for your help and all you do for us here on Gameboomers!

x2kul, you need to place both filters on the white light and you will get a message on the wall. I am trying to recall where the filters were located... <sigh> Donna, here are 4 visuals of what it should look like as you are moving them. Note that you can never have two the same color together except for where they start or end. Black and White 1 Black amd White 2 Black amd White 3 Black and White 4 Ana

 maria, This is just from memory so maybe one of them will help you. 2 on the sofa. Close up right side of room: 1 on planter. 1 on table. 1 on floor. 1 behind lamp base. 1 on top drawer. 1 on bottom drawer. I'm missing one. Let me think. I think there is another one on the floor. Not sure.

And it's now almost 3 a.m. plodding along in this game... needed 2 things, found an answer about the net, thx! But... how do you use the bunson burner? Every time I start a new level, I put everything I can under the microscope, figuring that it'll be needed to finish the game, right? And the item wouldn't go if it shouldn't, right? But I can't get the right combo for the ashes and invisible? letter that I figure have to go under the burner. Any advise plz? Thx  -Laura p.s. I'm about to go back into the game. Maybe I'll get it right now that I've asked for help lol?!?!
