Have you checked the walkthrough here?

Ana

Okay - checked the WT - know what's got to be done but I don't have a letter on the 3rd button from the left. Guess I'm going to have to guess what it is.

My word was easy so I knew what to place there. What letters do you have?

Ana

i saw in the walkthrough it says you can play 2modes survivor or timed.then below it says survivor you get 60 mins per chapterand then below that it says the relaxed mode has no timer.i want to play the game in relaxed mode but which one do i use the survivor or the timed mode.that don't make any since to me,and can you skip puzzles in this game?thank you!

In that case you want to choose survivor mode. I don't recall any time limit on it, I walk away and leave it and never ran out of time.

ana

i downloaded the demo and then opened the game there was a relaxed and a survivor mode i took relaxed mode,but how do you exit the game.there was a thing that said (if you are tried)and i clicked that and it took me back to where it starts,for your name,the modes ect.but no where does it say to close game or exit.i had to ctrt&esc.bottoms to get to my desktop.thank you!

On the barrel it says OPtions, New Player, Quit or credits. Click on Quit.

Ana

i saw that but the two words where together like(quitcredits)and i thought that was some kind of game credits the game gave you.thanks again for you help!

No problem, have fun!

Hi

My letters are

P O (blank) E (the one with the eye figurine already there) I D O N.

My conclusion is that the word is Poseidon.

So all I have left to do is figure out which figureines to place on those 2 Os and on the S

Hey Retired at Last, here is the solution
Penguin
Onion
Skull
Eye
Ice (block)
Dragon
Owl
Nose

Thanks Margie! The Queen of all things casual.

Oh Ana, you are so funny

Realized I made an error.
In My House when I clicked on the chest to open it I took the key, and the mask.
But I forgot to take the poison and now I can't get back into the house. Hope this does not affect my future game.

I have never come to a deadend in a casual game because I forgot to take something. Are you looking at a walkthrough that tells you that you forgot something? Don't worry about it and move on. If you really need something, you will not be able to leave a scene and if you did move on, the scene will reopen when you need it so you can get the item. No worries and just have fun.

Ana

Thanks Ana. WT doesn't tell me I've forgotten something.
Now I'm stuck at Flowers and Roots. I read the instructions in the WT but I still don't understand what I'm suppose to do. Tried to connect all the holes together and can't do that. I managed to get 2 holes filled with flowers.

That one took me two evenings of playing with it till I got them all RAL. You need to keep turning them so that all the flowers bloom. It's kind of like a pipes game where you have to turn the pipes till the water goes through them all.

Try picking one corner and making your way through one bloom at a time.

What happens to my game play if I decide to skip this puzzle?

I didn't skip any, but you can see by this thread that others did. I think the game just continues on as usual. I have not heard of any penalties.

I must be blind. My cataract operations must have affected me really bad
Trying to find the last nut. Using the hint option I managed to make this screenshot http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k198/gameperson/Lastnut.jpg

I just don't see a nut in it.
Hope your eyesight is better than mine.

RAL

RAL, you have to get the skeleton to swinging really hard, and the nut is up on the tree behind the skeleton's head.

Got it before coming back to edit my post.
I lost many of my hints to get that screenshot.

Ask me if I'm mad.

for real this time

I am stuck on the Flowers and Roots, I have had a look at the walk through and there are 2 solutions there but neither have flowers/holes where I have mine,
I don't want to skip it, but might have to.

Widget, flowers and roots is just like the Pipes game except in each of the brown holes, a flower will sprout if you connect the pipes with bluish silver stuff in it to reach the 'hole'. When each hole is connected to the the silvery stuff and a flower sprouts out with no 'holes' left unflowered, you got it!
