Back again. I'm with the 4 standing stones, but can't get to the Aquarius stone. The arrow goes left, or right but only 3 of the stones show up. Taurus, Leo and Scorpio. What's the trick to finding the 4th stone?
Gillann

There's no trick. From Taurus (the first stone you see after entering the circle) click left once and you'll be at Aquarius. Perhaps the runes appear similar to those set for Taurus, so you are mistaking them?

This is so weird, Rushes. I did as you said, and guess what? No Aquarius. It goes to Leo. If I click right, it goes to Scorpio. Only the 3 show up. Have yet to see the Auarius stone no matter what I do. Can't figure it out.
Gillann

On the first stone, Taurus, if you click the down arrow you'll see the ornate stone in the grass at the base. Click the up arrow, then click 4 times clockwise. Now click the down arrow again. If you've ended up back at the ornate base stone, then you know there are definitely 4 in total. Check and see.

Bingo! Thanks, Rushes.
Gillann

You're welcome.

Still having problems with the stones. Finally have them in order, and per the WT have the right trees, ogram symbols, etc., but nothing happens. Must be missing something...
Gillann

what's the game you're talking about?



Thanks I got the name of the game.

Disney, it is the Nancy Drew #19 game: The Haunting of Castle Malloy.

EDIT: good to see you have the answer.

One of your stones must be incorrect, gillann, double check to make sure. Examine the trees especially, it's easy to confuse Spring with Summer. Spring should have slightly fewer leaves.

Rushes, do the stones have to be in any particular order? I know that the Taurus stone is the first one you see, but what about the remaining 3? I have gone back over again and again and feel the symbols are all correct, but something is amiss.
Gillann

Yes, they should be in order of the seasons, starting with summer and moving clockwise around the circle. Look through the book that you got from Donal for clues. Examine also the zodiac constellation book.

Am feeling dumber by the minute. In the book, it has Samhaim, Imbolc, Beltain and Lungasa, but in the WT it has Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. So, with Taurus being the starting point, clockwise to the right should be Leo, then Scorpio and Aquarius. It didn't work, though. I'm confused.
Help! Can't wait for the new game..it's supposed to be so much harder. Good grief.
Gillann

Make sure that the festivals are in the correct order. Beltaine is summer, so that should be on the summer (Taurus) stone.

ND: Castle Malloy,

I'm yet another one who has been struggling with the darned sheep. I've gotten 9 numerous times, but then I immediately lose 2.

YUP, I'd really appreciate a Saved Game, too. I've exceeded my frustration tolerance.

NOW, darned if I didn't FINALLY get that last sheep! I used to like them, too.

BT

Very good!

Hi MaG,

I couldn't believe it! My hand was shaking so much that as soon as I was sure I really had done it, I couldn't hold onto the mouse anymore. I really did want to succeed on my own. I'd made it through the Schism (game1)computer puzzle, and the laser room in Still Life. I found the laser room puzzle difficult, but it WAS easier. No sheep to keep on getting out.

Think I really need to "up" my medication. <G>

BT

Thanks again, Rushes. Off and running!
Gillann

Do you have a saved game for the Chemical bottle puzzle?
I have followed the walkthrus and still get blown up every time I try an put the large bottle in the slot.

Thx

Hi gamespider, to GameBoomers.

The save's on its way, check your e-mail in a few minutes.

Thanks Chief
