How do I get to play the Bul game? The museum computer lets me take the quiz, but I see no option for Bul or the match games.

On that level, there are 2 computers.
If I remember correctly they are on one side of the room from each other.
The quiz computer you did can be for the match game or the quiz.
The other computer at other side of room has the Bul game.
Best to look around.

Oops, I didn't even look around for another computer! Duh.
Thanks, MaG.

Ok, I can't believe I have so much trouble with this game. This is what I get for trying to go it without looking at the walkthrough every couple of minutes!
Anyway, I sent the message on the radio to send the item but ended after that. Now I see that I should have also said that the payment had been sent. I can't get back on to the channel now at all. Does this mean that I have to go back to an earlier save, or will this all work out?
Nancy always seems to challenge me in one way or another! Darn teenagers.

Hi pamvan,

Maybe the channel is already set up for receiving the final word? Have you tried entering the code for payment to see what happens? If that doesn't work, what happens when you re-tune into 2050 (or 2731) and press Connect?

Thanks, Rushes. I did try the 2731 and got the channel not receiving message. I haven't tried the 2050, but I will.

I have another problem (of course). I can't get Patricia's phone number. I 've called Franklin Rose I don't know how many times and he's never in the office (does the man never work??). i can't figure out what I haven't done in order to contact him for the phone number. I've put all the info on Henrik's bulletin board, finished Level 1 quiz. Finished Level 2 also, but there must be more to do because I didn't get access to Level 3.

Whew, Nancy does make me work when I don't follow a walkthrough exactly! This is becoming embarassing.

Did you read the magazine on the small table in Joanna's office which mentions Prudence? Also examine the plaque on the wall outside the office, there's another mention of Prudence there. Then try calling Franklin Rose again, see if that does the trick.

It's more fun playing without a walkthrough, though, don't you think? wink

Yeah, Rushes, it is more fun, albeit somewhat humbling.
I have looked at the magazine and the plaque, but will do it again and try the call.
I entered the 2050 channel, received the 83271, entered the 2731 channel and received the channel not receiving message again. I tried to send the code word by Morse code, but nothing happened. I'm wondering if I haven't asked the right questions along the way and somehow gotten myself stuck. Is that possible?

I just tried looking at the magazine again--looked at the plaque even though the magnifying glass didn't turn red--and tried Franklin rose. The slacker still is out of the office. I'm beginning to not like this guy.

Yes, it's possible to hit a dead end by making what the game considers to be the wrong dialogue choices. That might not be your problem, let's see if we can get you around this.

Have you spoken to Sinclair about everything and discussed the stolen necklace?

Are you checking your voicemail regularly?

What time is it in the game? Perhaps it's evening and so you won't be able to contact Franklin by telephone, in which case you'll need to reset your hotel room clock.

luck

I just set the clock to 10 am, called and he's still out of the office. Tried Sinclair again--I have talked with him about everything, but just in case. He has nothing to discuss with me. Every time I try to see Henrik, he's either asleep or in memory recovery. I've checked voice mail--just did--and have tried to call Franklin from that phone, too. Nada, zip and a great big fat zero. Sheesh. I wonder how far back I'd need to go. The audio clips have been set, the numbers reordered in the hall, the glyph taken from Poppy's art work. I've talked to Poppy, obviously. I've exhausted all coversation with Alejandro also. Joanna is at the police station--I don't see any way to call her. I'm all alone. (Deep self-pitying sigh)

lol I feel your pain. It's difficult to tell what you might have missed, or if you've hit a stuck point. Check back against the walkthrough, if you haven't already done so. Rather than go back and replay huge chunks, there are a whole heap of saved games HERE that you might find useful.

luck and let us know how you get on.

Thank you again, Rushes. I still don't save my games often enough--get caught up in the game. I usually regret this oversight. Not that I seem to have learned from my error, you understand. Where's the fun in that, I ask you.

Again, thank you for all your help.

You're welcome. Hope you're able to move forward now. Enjoy the rest of the game.
