I am stuck:( How do you do the Horse Musical Box? I have checked the walkthrough and have done almost all up to that point.But it says something about a flyer and I cant get it because the lady sunbathing is not there. Colin isnt there either. I cant open the propane box either...cant get flowers to make money and I have the bug sprayer..I have passed the robots..maybe I have done too much without a walkthrough and in a glitch? Also it says in the walkthrough to compare the note on Nancys bed to Colin but he already amitted to me he gave the sausages cause I compared his handwriting in the book next to him...also the table where he was was is empty but when I click on the table I can still use the microscope,,click back table is empty..Is it my game>>Please help me if you can. Thank you

Margherita - you might have missed an alert to look at Fango's office. Do so now.

Propane box opening will be later after you know why you should after you check more in Fango's office.

You have to ask permission from Margherite to take the flowers and then you can get dem bees.

Ah - then no problem with Colin's handwriting.

That scope after he left is a glitch. I got that too in XP. You can ignore that one.

You're at the point where you have to go to bed.
The next day she will be back and you can talk to sunbathing lady smile

I have been to bed about 6 times in a row and nothing happens. Margherita is still missing in action..
In Fangos office I have,,,looked at the diploma's, checked the file drawers, saw funny eyeglasseds cat and robot, saw poster, been in cabinet when Fango comes back .twice. put in password, in the computer,looked in the trash bin,even played chess,,saw candy wrapper, and saw missing scopa cards amd played the horse musical box.
Maybe I should start back at an earlier save? and follow walkthrough,,just maybe if you dont do things in order things wont happen?
I can send my last save to someone to see what I missed but that would be a big imposition...But maybe someone can send me a save After the Robot maze? Thanks

Hi catsmom,

Have you spied on Fango's office from your balcony, and seen Margherita arguing with him and waving a piece of paper?

That is your trigger for your conversation with Margherita and her giving you the flyer.

Try that - if it doesn't work just let us know, we'll get you through somehow. wave

A question about spying from the balcony - I have been out there just to look at the view but did not see any way to look up - have I missed something here?
Love, Betty Lou

Betty lou,
You got a pair of binoculars at the ATM machine. The order also mentioned about the name of the building where Fango is located and where to spy on him.
Maybe best to read the 2 buttons at bottom of the ATM machine.

Also use this thread now for all your questions. Thanks.

Thanks, I got the save.

Go back up to the balcony and look out towards Fango's office. Take the binoculars from your inventory and place them over the office window - they will highlight in red. Left-click, and you'll see the cut scene with Margherita.

After the cut scene, go to bed and sleep.

Wake up, go up on the roof and talk to Margherita.

luck

I think I ended up with a paltry 4 stars. Not enough dancing or bee-annihilating, obviously. rolleyes That water-maze was fiendish, wasn't it? Glad you finished the game.

I have the binnoculars, ignored reading those instructions at the ATM machine and will go back to read them but I still am not able to look up with or without the bino's when I am on Nancy's balcony outside her bedroom - no cursor to do so, can only look left or right at the canal below headscratch

The balcony you need to go to is the one above the house. It overlooks the building surrounding the Ca'.
You are asked to observe Fango, An alert will sound on your PDA when he is in his office.
Then you go up to where your hostess is sunbathing and use the binoculars on his office at the Argon building.
Watch what he does. You then report it to Sophia using your PDA.
That is the order from the police given to you at the ATM machine. luck

Aha, so I am not able at all to use the balcony outside Nancy's bedroom, that's me - wrong place again.
Next question = Where in my inventory does it tell me how many Euro's I have left in my 'wallet'?

Hi Betty Lou,

You will see your wallet at top left of your screen.

Has anyone figured what to do with the 2 easter eggs in the game? Are there more than 2?

I only found 1 egg, but never found a way to use it. Would be interesting to know, though.

Ahhhh...I see it, just barely, it is so dim it is almost 'invisible'...and so far I have found enough Euro's lying around with the trash that I don't need to go to work or sell anything to earn money - and I beat Enrico more than once at Scopa and he says he wired to my bank account - wonder how much he sent me and where that went (I don't think the amount is reflected in my "wallet" - maybe at the ATM machine?) Oh, and thanks
Love, Betty Lou

Well, am stuck again. I really, really want to succeed at this dance for my cat costume (how funny! rotfl) and have read all the other threads for this game - I thought someone had a tip/clue of how to follow the color hints but can't find it...where do I look for the spotlight color hint of which dance to do next? Thanks
Love, Betty Lou

It was a tip from me smile

Click to reveal..
If you notice it, there's only a handful of songs/music played and the color/sound codes is always the same pattern for each.

Try to memorize/write down the colors and where you see those colors for each piece of music, so you can move your cursor to that spot instantly after the first. laugh

The faster you hit the color the faster the colorbar goes up in the red thus more euros earned. Up to 32!

Oh and an added plus is, that the more you dance an earn euros that way - a star is earned too razz

I am at the Kiosk at the beginning of the game. The WT says to pick up two magazines the one on the 3rd from top shelf is not there...?
I have replayed the game from the beginning and I still cannot find it...what am I doing wrong?
