I just started playing this game and wondering whether or not anyone might have a save for getting the note behind the picture at the beginning. I keep getting stuck there. I listen to the story about Carfax and then nothing. I don't get a cursor or anything to retrieve the note behind the picture. So I thought well maybe I don't need the note and played all the way until I needed the note with no issues then went back thinking maybe I can get it now, still nothing. I don't know if I will have any further issues with the game further in, but right now I can't even move without getting the note. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Sly,

Try here. I think there might be one close to where you are located now.

I have one I will send you, along with a description of where it is in the game. Use it if you want or delete.

EDIT:

Save has been sent.

MaG and BillyBob thanks a million. On with the game. Much appreciated.

Thanks, BillyBob.

BillyBob and MaG thanks again for your assitance. I am stuck again. I am in the sewer after leaving Seward's Asylum where he gave me the key. I can only go straight and then right or left. Left is a gate and I can move no further. Right I can only move one click and then there is an Arch and I can go no further as there is two gears when I try to enter the arch. I have tried to use everything in my inventory but nothing. I looked at the walkthrough and it says go right XI times to find a rope but says nothing about getting me past the arch. As I said I can only move one click before the arch....any ideas?

Hi Sly One,

I peeked at the walkthrough too. I think that X1 means move forward just one click after turning right. Then look to your right - can you see a rope there?

Thanks Rushes....am I just stupid or what? I will try that, although I did look for a rope but maybe not good enough. I'll go back and try again. Boy I really feel dumb right now. : )

I hope that works for you, let us know if you still have problems. It's always those little things, isn't it.

I will send you another save and note showing where it is. You might need one just past that, though. If so, let me know.

EDIT:
Canceled sending the save. See if the following helps......

You will be given a key to acces the sewers.
When this part of the game is finished you will go back into the room you had come from and go forward to the door to the outside. Do not go through this door but, instead, make a left and go to the corner and make another left and proceed ahead one click to the door. Use the key just given to you to unlock the door to the 2nd sewer.

Proceed through the door ahead.
You are again in a set of sewer tunnels.

Once through the door go down the tunnel one click and turn right to see another tunnel. One click in this direction look to the wall on your right and pick up the rope hanging there.

Thanks, BillyBob.

BillyBob,

Thanks again. You have been such a life saver for me. If I need you again, I'll be back. : )

I only remembe vague parts of this game although I'm sure I finished it. I have some saves marked as to where they appear in the game and some I can only say are in a certain area of the game according to what notes I made as I played. If you get stuck and need a save and if you can unzip them I could send several at one time in zipped form......or individually, if necessary.

I recall it as a somewhat complicated game but one I couldn't stop til I finiahed.
