There's 2 at the soda.

One on the floor under the left table.
One on the left table with book.
One on the square pot at top right.
One on the chair behind the lamp.
One on the edge of the lamp at right.
One on top drawer.
One on bottom drawer.

Sadirose,

There are 2 on the couch in that main scene.

CLose-up view..

2 pcs-One in each open drawer
1- one by the vase where the open drawers are.
1-Top left on the small dresser.
1-on the large round table.
1-On the carpet close to the large round table.
1- on the potted plant, far right side.

My guess is that you're missing the one on the floor or the one on the carpet. It's all there in the screenshots.

EDIT: Sorry MaG I must have been writing while you were posting :-)

Good Luck!

No,I missed the 2nd one on the couch. Finally found it after wscouring the couch about 50 times. Your screenshots were great--I just kept missaing that ohne. thanks for the help! I'v got past everything now & am settling down to figuring out the deduction board.

Ah - maybe you still have your gamma way high but you will need it for the hideout later though. Glad you got through.

Now I'm really almost thru. I think I know who the villlain is--but I have the person connected every way but to the clock. How do I work that?

Yippy Skippy! I finished! totally enjoyed this game once the hateful timer was gone. And once again,I love this forum! Thanks,everyone for your help!

sadi! Glad you got through and enjoyed the game.

Hellllloooooooooooo All!!!

Just thought I'd send an update of my situation...

It seems that I had corrupted files in my computer. This after too many minutes (hours?) with HP online techs. I had to do a system recovery and now have absolutely NOTHING on my computer except this SH game, which I now just completed! woohoo!

No idea how true that is/was, but I was finally able to get back into the game (which was totally not showing; was just able to hear the music, but was getting an HP msg and couldn't play).

I'd just like to thank MaG and Tigre for all your wonderful, amazing help throughout this journey. You really made it so much better by your presence. Props to both!

Looking forward to your help with the next game I decide to buy

Cheers to all and next round's on me!

So glad you got it figured out. Sorry about the corrupted files though.

Oh what a total pain to have to reinstall everything. I hope you were able to backup your files.

Congrats on your finishing the game!

Ana

Thx Looney and Tigre

Yes, files are backed up. But all my games have to be reinstalled now ugh.

Got an email from a supervisor at HP hours after already did the recovery (about an hour ago, when I was deep into the game already.) He said I could've gone into safe mode and changed the game settings there. Not sure if that would've helped, but I sure hope not, 'cause it's too little too late.

Onward and ever upward!

Glad you got through, Laura.

The tried to get the red box puzzle for days to get it to open, now getting to the point of dumping this whole game off my computer. I don't mind some of a challege but enough of this type of puzzle in the game. Anyone else having the problem with this puzzle?

I was, but managed to finally get that one done. Just remember, you can only use one number once.

MysteryFantic,

Do it systematically and it can be done.

I did it by doing 1234512345 as a start and upping one number (skipping the green numbers) until at the last one - you can deduce the correct numbers based on the unused (not green) numbers.

I think Ana did it 1234567890.

Both tactics work afte 2-3 tries.

I will close this thread. It is quite long now.

If you have any questions - please post on the Part 3 thread.
