Just saw this while checking the Kheops Site:
http://www.kheopsstudio.fr/site/shop.php

Woa. It looks like it will soon be available via download in English. I wonder if it's more an adventure game or more a casual game. And when will we be able to play it to find out???

It's more a puzzle-casual HOG than adventure. :wink12:

The Top Bird at Kheops whispered that the English version will be online later today. Have fun!

I will move this to casual forum! :christmas:

Later today! That's great! :thumbsUp12:

Wonder if BigFish will get it?

Wow, thanks :wave12:

I've been checking for this everyday...looks like it's been delayed? Awwwww...I was looking forward to it. Oh well.....I'm sure it will be out soon. Hope everyone had a nice holiday. Looking forward to the New Year!
Barbara

Looks like they may be in the process of updating the availability. The site no longer states English version coming soon and the product page has changed. Fingers crossed.

Update: Just ordered the game in English and downloaded the installer. Have fun everyone and happy holidays!

WooHoo! Thanks....let us know what you think.
I'm on my way over there now.
Barbara

The game was available the other day when I checked it. They must have just adjusted something.

Let us know what you think!

Oh.....when I checked all day yesterday it was not...actually it was in French, just not in English, but maybe it was just me. Anyway I did order, however, haven't received the serial number as yet which is quite odd because my experience has been that they usually come almost immediately after the paypal email. Hmmmmm...will give it some time, but getting a little worried. Hope it's not going to be one of those days. : )
Barbara

I'm in the same boat. Waiting on the activating code. I wouldn't worry though, Kheops has always been top notch. I'm sure once they see all the orders the numbers will start going out. Would be nice to finish out the holiday weekend with a new game.

Thanks kinetic....at least I know I'm not the only one. I wasn't worried because I do believe the Kheops is a good site, so when it's available, I'm sure they will come out. It's nice to know it wasn't something I did/didn't do though. You start to wonder if you gave the right email address, etc. ,etc. : )
Barbara

EDIT:

Hi kinetic hopefully you got your serial number. I emailed the shopping email address I got in my email from paypal and the just sent me my serial number. They seem to think I should have gotten an email and I still have not received it, but I do now have my serial number. Will let everyone know what I think when I start to play.
Barbara

Hi Barabara, I guess no love for kinetic this evening, I'm on the west coast as well and wrote to them 7:44 am this morning a half hour after I ordered the game and haven't heard anything. Wrote them again this evening and still nothing. Here's to hoping for a post xmas miracle by morning. Hope you're enjoying the game.
kinetic

Kinetic did you use the one that is in your paypal email confirmation? (shopping@kheops-studio.fr). I used the customer service one on the website first, but then I saw this one in the paypal email confirmation and used that one and within an hour I got my serial number. They may be closed now...I don't know the time zone where they are but I did email them back letting them know that I never received a confirmation email with the serial number (their email implied I should have received it) and that I knew of one other person (you) who also did not receive theirs. So maybe something wrong with the email after purchasing. I hope you wake in the morning to yours, but if you didn't try the email address above, try that one. It's really a GREAT game. I am enjoying it very much. I am stuck so will get back at it in the morning. Hint system is good and puzzles so far good but definitely not easy. Really like it. I hope you get to play tomorrow.
Barbara

Thanks Barbara, that's the email I used both times. In fact I forwarded my PayPal email to them as proof on the first one and included just the transaction # on the second. Like you said probably gone home for the day, I'm sure it will turn up soon. Glad to hear your enjoying the game. I'll keep you posted.

kinetic, have you checked your spam folder? I have had mail like that end up in my spam folder many times.

Ana

I have just received my serial number manually from Kheops, they are having problems sending the numbers automatically. Hope this helps and you guys don't have to wait too long. :santa:


Edit: Playing for a little while, beautiful graphics. Mouse or keyboard. Skip puzzles and rechargeable hints. Lots to explore. Can't quite place the voice-Cleopatra,a Queens Destiny, I think.

Well I finally received my serial number manually last night/morning around midnight my time and was told there was an issue with the emails as well and that they were looking into it.

@BrownEyedTigre: I thought it could be a spam issue as well so added their email domain to my allow list on my server just as a precaution, but don't think that was the issue as I've received email from that address before when downloading games directly from Kheops.

I'm off now to enjoy a lazy Sunday with this game. Thanks for all the help and feedback on the game.

YaaaY kinetic...glad you got it and are on your way. Hope you enjoy it as much as I am.
Barbara

Anybody know what you are supposed to do in the weight/scale room. I've gotten everything needed but can't figure out what to do with them.

Found what I was missing, happened to see a screen shot with something I didn't have.

Thanks Barbara, having a blast. I'm glad it's not just an HOG, but has some great puzzles as well. As far as the game experience goes, I'll just say that it's typically Kheops and doesn't disappoint.

@Flo NS:
The only tip I can give you as I haven't figured it out quite yet is that it reminds me of the opening sequence in the original Indiana Jones with the Golden Idol. I'm trying to figure out how to determine the weight of the sand. Hope that helps.

The other nice aspect of the game is that it isn't completely linear so if you're stuck on one puzzle there's others to figure out in the mean time.

Thanks kinetic. I thought the missing piece would give me the solution but it only made it worse.

If you come up with a stategy, please let me know.

Got it, resorted to taking a clue, actually 2.

No worries Flo NS - glad you figured it out. It wasn't too hard once I got a break .

Great glad you both got it. Have fun!
Barbara
