Ah,a different gate! Thanks very much, Ana. I'll leave you alone for a while now.

I'm here if you need me. As long as I can help, I'm here. Enjoy!

Ana

Thanks Ana I got the mine car Activated.
Richard

Fantastic!

Ana

Thank you, ma'am. I appreciate it.
I found the way into the house now.
I'll save the next part for another day.

Since you have beta'd, about how far along in the game am I?

Ana,

Thanks very much for the help given.

LadyCav, you are just over half done.

MaG -

Ana How do I get the notebook from the skeleton.
tried everything in my inventory. thanks
Richard

Where is the skeleton Richard and I'll try to find it. I have a save before and after the notebook but don't remember where I got it.

It's in the crypt that I used the crowbar to take off the top of the coffin. In the graveyard.
Richard

Oh! There is an egg in a vase that a snake comes out of in that crypt. Take the egg and give it to the snake guarding the notebook. I thought you were in the mine.

Ana

I'm all over the place. I can't get into the mine cars yet. Thanks
richard

It sounds like you are getting close.

Ana

I think I will wait until you get done with your WT and pick up where I am. Really a nice game but quite hard. thanks for all your help Ana.
Richard

No worries Richard, I can help. As long as I don't have to replay alot, I am good. Ask away.

Ana

well guys..i gotta tell you..this a very good game. started off real slow for me--ran around in 'circles' forever before tripping a spot to enter and have been stuck again several times since..but the atmosphere in the game keeps me going! i am in/out of mine-got in the car-been to some ruins, climbed down a rope, and now have entered a huge 'Fortress' and am surrounded by 3 really nasty creatures and no clue how to defeat 'em or scare them off....have used everything in inventory on them (no matter how odd it is) but no luck..must have to combine something but don't see how.. a cliff hanger!

Right click on a coin to get a close-up and cut it with a cutting tool in your inventory.

Ana

Oh Ana..are you staying up all night to help us fellow Boomers?! Thanks for the hint..didn't expect answer until tomorrow...hope you have good and safe Holiday and thank you for all your help. Ahh..now the hard decision...to go back and play or use some self control and wait until tomorrow...

Actually I am working, so I'll be here awhile.

Ana

Just had to stop last night after the last post--eyes/brain tired! Began this am and have just now finished the game. LOVED IT!! The only problem is-and i know you ALL can relate-once you finish a really, really, REALLY good game you wish you hadn't...because you wanted it to keep going! Well, that is the way i feel now...satisfied that i had a very good game to play (best in MONTHS and MONTHS and MONTHS)but sorry it is now over. I sure enjoyed it...Hmmm...wonder if Wendy & Bill might somehow pop up again... I do want to add this..i played on a pitiful laptop (haven't been able to get newer desktop)-no new 3d card and no newer sound and minimum processor speed and RAM and the game still played. Now-i did lower (in the options)some settings just to see if would play(fearing the worst) and it did!! I can only imagine how good it must look and sound on a better more powerful machine! When i get a new one this will be one of the first i will replay (and i don't replay too many). Hope you are busy on the next one Billy 'cause i'm already wishing it was here! Excellent Job! enjoyed the voices -so nice and creepy!!

How is it that the Raven puzzle gives one more anti-venom? I don't have more anti-venom after the last was drank. The chest did not open or do anything after I let the raven puzzle autosolve. I double checked my inventory, looking for another pink bottle.

I am at the point where two goons won't allow me into the fortress and there is no active hotspot for any type of action to take place.

I tried pouring a stone bowl of oil over the stone snake's head in the cave and that didn't work, nor did a coin or any other inventory item. So as of yet, I can't get through this second or third stone door.

I left the area, went back to the raven puzzle. It still said "win" at 2001 points, so I did another level, which brought it to 2200 or something points, but still no anti-venom or open chest. What did I miss, please??

@ Gamenut - glad you enjoyed the game! Thanks for nice comments.


@ladyCav - if you are in the fortress then you need to find the antivenom in the fortress - but you dont need it to get by the goons (probably already got the anti-venom from the raven puzzle way back)

There should be 3 goons... put the mouse over all three and listen to the hint.

Thank you very kindly, Billy, for your quick response! I only remembered seeing two goons but I'll go back and check again, and listen for a hint.

Thanks also for the tip about finding anti-venom. As I had said, I couldn't get the raven puzzle to give me anti-venom. Regarding your spoiler:



I just assumed I had missed a step or missed finding something for a new inventory item. I'll go back and try again. Thank you very much. Your games are awesome!

Edit to Add:

Thank you, Billy. Trying to leave the fortress (rather than exiting the game and going back to my previous save just outside the fortress) did the trick. I had to see the third goon before the next actions became available to me. On my way once again.

Ana do you have a picture of the pipe puzzle in the mines? Thanks
richard

I can do one for you. Give me a minute....I be back
