I downloaded the Demo this morning it looks like a pretty good game no Timer, different mini games with a skip option :)I don't know how long it is I only have 3 min. left on the Demo so might wait to see if it is a long game wave


I may not have gone where I intended to go,but I think I have ended up where I need to be.

I Beta tested this one and thought it was great. I have been waiting for it to come out for ages. Definitely going to buy it.

I only played for a little bit this morning before work...but so far I like it. I bought it so when I get home I can start playing. I think this one will be a good one. Thanks BFG.

Ditto Sly... I played for 10 minutes and had to tear myself away... to go to work. I like it. It's an IHOG/HOG/Adventure
game. A little of everything.

I think I'll buy this one, but would like to finish the demo ... stuck in the lab. I think I've found and picked up all the stuff, but can't fix the analyzer. No more hints and I only have 20 minutes left. Can you help me, please?

Need help on the ID card. Got the photo on it. Problem with the print line. Got golden cats on it but can't do anything with. Haven't found any ink, can't move it to the press, so not sure what to do next.


Never resist a generous impulse.

Hi Acornia,
Click to reveal..
I would assume that you placed the name "Golden Cats" backwards.
The key in this puzzle is to place the blank tile in between the two words, so it should look like this...
(STAC)(BLANK TILE)(NEDLOG)
Once you've entered it correctly, the stamp will go into inventory. Grab the stamp and place it on the golden tag.
Click here to see the screenshot.
Good Luck! Margie B

I'm wondering how long this game is. I finished my demo and am in Frankie the Fatso's place and am wondering how far into it I am.

wow! I love this game! I really dig the voice of the detective and so very grateful to have a casual game that has speech again. Just started the game and after 5 minutes I bought it. Thanks BF Guy! Keep the great ones coming and I will keep buying them. Love that there is no timer, at last I can relax again and play a game with speech at my leisure. I look forward to this game having a sequel.

Now this is a great game. Having lots of fun. Reminds me a little of Nancy Drew Dossier, in the way it looks. I hope it has a sequel too, or a series of games featuring Nick Chase. That would be fun. Also did anyone notice the name of the fish?lol

thracia

PS: I am a ittle stuck on Joe's door lock.Have the key,it says there is one more lock to open. Keep turning the dead bolt, but door won't open. Help!

Never mind I just figured it out.

Hi Thracia, the lock has to be clicked in a certain manner and then you have to click on the lock. You can click here to watch a short video on the locks. The video also has the first steps for the scene but the video only lasts 33 seconds.
Here are the written instructions for that puzzle...

Click to reveal..
Place the key in the keyhole, click on the deadbolt lock,above the keyhole ONE time and then click on the handle, the first deadbolt will open.

Click on the deadbolt lock 3 times (until the small end of the lock is facing upwards)then click on the handle again, the second deadbolt will open.

Click on the deadbolt lock 3 times so the lock is facing to the left and the door will open.

I'm wondering the same thing Springchicken.

Also, if you don't finish a chapter or task before you leave the game, you have to start the level over. I left the game before finding the door, now I have to start that part over.

Am I missing something? I am in the motel room, have the lighter and screwdriver. Use the screwdriver on the door handle...nothing happens. I hope this is a "duh" moment and not a glitch. HELP!
