Assuming you're near the end where you have to find the 10 hearts... Did you see sparkles near the front door? If you didn't, maybe your heart is in a different location. They can be in different locations.


Can you get a screenshot of the puzzle?
Use the Print Screen key on your keyboard, exit the game, open MS Paint, Paste the screenshot into Paint, and Save it. Then upload it somewhere like Photobucket or Imageshack and give us the link.

mystery fantic i am having that problem now with the male statues and can't get my screwdriver, where do you find it at later in the game?if i can find one later i will just skip this part of the game.thanks

Hello, All! Love this game-they've outdone themselves. Question: what happens if for some reason you miss an inventory item? Does it impact the game at all? Seems you can't go back to a scene once you've left.
Thanks a bunch.

Witchie,

What game are you talking about? to GameBoomers.

Finally finished, had hard time getting to the shrine, then it was easy. I want a new MCF tomorrow!!!!!

The screw driver is in the rose bush. I found hearts in different locations then other people, just went to every location and searched.

I checked the walkthrough and the male statue is supposed to light up after you dig with the shovel at the X spot, third time I believe, to get the screwdriver... but mine isn't lighting up.

I see others are having the same problem -- are we doing something out of order? From looking at the walkthrough, I didn't go in exactly the same order, so is that the problem? Is it fixable or do I have to start again?

I am really stuck on the card game (where I inserted the skeleton key by the elevator) and have to use the numbers found throughout the game. I have read Margie's wt but still do not have any idea how to use the numbers (add them, subtract them, no clue). Thanks

KateAnne

They all differ.

One you subtract (telescope Victor's), one you see the sequence of numbers and deduce the missing one (heart from gate), one is ??addition (diamond from school) and can't remember where I saw the spades.


So the clues are all together with the numbers.

To place the numbers - point to the suit.
Then turn the numbers so that the middle set of 3 shows the number you deduced.

My notes stated:
diamond - 006 or is it 003,
club - 300
hearts - 076
Spades - 005
I think you should hear a sound when done correctly; so stop the turn of numbers when you do.

For those having a problem with the X not showing up, I think that is the wrong screen. If you're at the scene where it is a statue of Rose and (I assume) Charles, go one screen up. There's another statue there and the X should be on the ground.

ETA: Nevermind! I see you're talking about the area where you can search for hidden objects.

I actually didn't get my screw driver for a long time, just keep going back to the male statue after doing something else to see if it flickers, it will eventually.

The HO part must be triggered by something you have to do, so until you set the trigger, it isn't going to light up in order to find the screwdriver. Because it is non linear, there just may be a simple step that one is missing. I really don't think there are any glitches in this game, I know my game didn't have any. Also, a walkthrough can only give you the basics, because a lot of things are so random you really need to find your own way.

Good luck,
Flo

I think part of the problem is using the walkthrough as a guide instead of just playing and using it when truly stuck. Other than reading these posts (a hazard of the job) I would not know I need something. I think if you just play the game and wait for things to open up and enjoy the scenery while looking for something that opened up in a previous area, you'll find everything you need without the stress of trying to trigger something.

Any tips for the Ball Puzzle, the sequence in the walkthrough does not work for me.

Which ball puzzle, there are a few with balls.

ana

the one on the bedroom door after you have found the items under the bed, inside the Beauty Parlor,

OK, panic over, all of a sudden I did it!!!!
thanks
love this game,

I followed the path backwards. It is easier to see where the ball needs to be in order to get in the hole if you start from the hole and trace a mental path back to the ball. I believe the layout is random.

Ana

I agree with Ana about just going with the flow of things. Walk around and enjoy the experience!

Thank you MaG

Got it. Great game.

KateAnne

iam on the love connections puzzle and have did two different puzzles and another one is up now,once i get done one it will change two another one ,how many times do you have to do this before rose rises from her coffin.please help?

I believe it was 3 times.

Ana

After taking the shovel and digging where the x is by the angel just throught the skeleton gate you go back through the gate and click on the statue of the man? Nothing happens? does that mean I missed something? Following walkthrough, or so I thought.
Great revisiting Ravenhearst!

Inge, just keep going and play. I think everyone triggers things differently and it's best to not worry about something that you don't have. You will get everything you need at some point during the game.

It's also not a click on the statue, it's the sparkly prelude to clicking for a Hidden Object section that you will get by the statue.

Ana

Oops! Sorry-Return to Ravehearst.

I can't spell today! Ravenhearst.

witchie, you won't miss one. You will go through various rooms multiple times and when you find the necessary object it will go into your inventory automatically. No worries, just enjoy the game and wander around. It'll all fall together.

There is an edit button on the bottom of your post if you need to add or correct anything. Please don't post two in a row if no one has posted behind you.

Ana

Thanks BrownEyedTigre I'm just lovin' it, needless to say I shouldn't be spending on myself at the mo but I just couldn't miss this one.

I hope you took advantage of the half off or club prices. You can't beat that, this game has plenty of bang for the bucks! :loL:
