I do this in evry walkthruogh I use and I use one a few times almost evry game - mainly those of MaG
I hate to see stuff that I dont need now or later and so I always use this sistem.

On my monitor I go to the walkthruogh and then on the very top task bar extreme left side is "file" and then just to its right of it is "edit". When you clik on that you get "find (on this page)" or some times just "find". I click on that and then enter a key word as close to hint i am looking for as posible for exampl if I put in "door" I'll probably get several unwanted hints but if I put in "red door" I'll get less and if I put in "wooden red door" even less.that way takes me director nearly directly only to the hint I wanw witout seeing other spoilers.

Hope ive explained clear and understand and helps.

JennyP,

You no doubt have to get the oil can now. You must first find the clockwork mechanism in the attic. Look for the oil can there.

OK, I don't think I'm double posting, but if I am, I apologize I'm in room 30 of the attic of Harald's apartment building. I've found the fuse in the far end of the attic and also the letter from Iris and the newspaper article in Harald's storage room, but I haven't found what I need in room 30. According to the official walkthrough, I need a stepladder, but I have been over every inch (pixel?) of that room and I see no stepladder! Am I just really blind (which is possible since I only have one contact lens in at the moment) or do I have a glitch in my game?
Help!

Grr...I really hate when this kind of stuff messes with my gaming...and on a day off too!!

LOL...I am really blind...I found it! Guess that'll teach me to play on the computer without putting both my contacts in. Sorry for the false alarm!

Glad you found the ladder, kelly.

Is there a walkthrough for The Color of Murder?

It's here,maxcat:

Mikael:

I just finished the game and I loved it. Please keep Carol busy in future adventures

Thanks for making these games.

i dont know what i missed but i didnt get the location "the docks" and cant get the white flowers now

Hi lorre,

Have you telephoned Stefan the delivery driver yet?

yes i phoned him - didnt get an answer from the number

Did you dial the longer number in the second column?

Did you examine the circulated envelope in the rack by the side of the double-doors at the foot of the workshop spiral staircase? You can go into close-up on Harold Lund's name, and Carol will comment about the last person to receive the envelope.

You can also check the notebook at top left of your screen, next to your inventory. That will give you a hint as to where you are currently at in the game, it may help.

Keep us posted.

thank you rushes i went back and i hadnt looked in the incoming mail now all is good - great service

Hi everyone,
I don't know what's wrong with me, but I'm lost at the very end of the game. I can't find the cabinet in the Iris appartment. I got the key from her bedroom, where is the locked cabinet with the drawers?

Springchicken,

It's under the TV in the living room.

I'm glad that helped, lorre. Have fun with the game.

Thanks Mikael, and thank you for another good game!

Hi: i am in theatre Workshop & trying to get to the box w. 3 symbols. I have the walkthru & have followed instructions(I think!) for descending the spiral stairs,turning 180 degrees,going forward & then left. Am i supposed to end up back upstairs? This is really a great game & the graphics are just beautiful as always in the Carol Reed games.I';m just stuck at this one place. Thanks for any help!

Hi sadirose,

The box with the symbols is on the ground floor. From the main ground floor area, head to the back of the workshop where the enormous alphabet letters are. Make your way to the smaller workshop area at the back and then head left, you'll come to a narrow corridor, and the box will be somewhere on the wall to your right.

Help,please! i am in Rm 30 of harald's attic & can't find the stepladder.

Sadirose,

I haven't played the game yet. We'll have to wait for help.

As you enter Room 30, don't move forward, immediately turn to your right. You'll see another door - open this, and the stepladder is directly in front of you.

Thanks! i would never have found the stepladder wout yr. help. Now trying to figure out how to get out of RM 30 to get the fuse at the end of the corridor.

You're welcome.

Exit Room 30 and turn right. Move forward to the end of the corridor, as far as you can go. Turn right, forward once and turn left. The fuse is on a low wooden ledge directly in front of you.

I'm at the part where you have to dip the white flower into the red paint, but it won't work. I used the red capsule and cut it and then tried the flower on the paint but it wont'work. What do I need to do. Also I didn't get the location of the Narional Tax Board, did I need to get that first ??if so what is the trigger to get it?

You will need to have visited the National Tax Board and spoken to the janitor there before you have any need to dip the white flower into the red paint.

Have you spoken to Willy at the allotment recently?
