I'm not sure exactly where you are in the game; could you tell me what's in your inventory right how? Maybe then I could provide a few hints. smile

What you want to do with the ring is:

Click to reveal..
Go to the front door of the manor and zoom in to the front door, then use the ring on the door knocker. You won't use the rag until a bit later.

Just finished the game (not the bonus - that will wait until tomorrow) and it was extraordinary!

Well worth the $$ for the C.E. imho.

So many games, so little time.

Is there going to be a 6.99 version?


I really enjoy mornings. I just wish they came later in the day.

Yes, there will. Generally 3 weeks after the collectors edition.

All the Collector's Editions have regular versions afterward; in general, it takes about two to three weeks after the release of the CE before you see the 6.99 version.

I am enjoying this game. I can't think of any downside to it. It is a very long game. I have about 20 hours into it now and still have quite a bit to go. The built-in stategy guide is good. Not the best one I have seen but it does the job well.

If you are unsure you should try the demo. I also ran into a walkthrough out there, so help is available to those who are playing the demo.

This is really a well done game and I am still playing. I disagree with the review about the backtracking. I think because I play a lot of adventure games is probably why it doesn't bother me. My one little quibble was for the one time I have used the strategy guide would be to list the puzzles. It had it divided by chapter and the game doesn't mention chapters.

Other than that, it's an excellent game, a definite must buy as CE or when the regular version comes out.

I'm stuck in the boat house. I freed the other boat, taken the hook off and now it's above the repaired boat but I can't hook it up.

I worked the wench... the left is the saw and the right is the winch... but nothing happens. The walkthrough picture is so tiny I can't see what I'm supposed to do here.

Finished the game and thoroughly enjoyed it. I do think it unfair the 6.99 version has the 'extras' noted, but you're not allowed to play it. Booooo!!

Hi, bkrytr!

I think all of the $6.99 versions show the bonus content on the main menu even though it's only available in the CEs. I'm assuming they don't remove it because they're trying to entice you to buy the CE or at least remind you that it's available for purchase.
