Has anyone out there except Redraven written a complete, step-by-step walkthrough for The Space Bar? And what gives with the Adventure Games site of LShaw? is it still down?
Love, Betty Lou

Hi there, Betty Lou...



There's a walkthrough by Raven right here. That one might not be the only other walkthrough, and there's also help at the UHSHints site.

Thanks Witchen - that is the redraven one I already have and the UHS hint sight is one I have looked at also. Wish there were someone else's walkthrough out there. I am attempting to play this one on my WIN98 computer again and the game tends to get a bit confusing with all the repeating one has to do in order to get something to 'trigger/work' - like getting Thud to 'get on the next bus' - I am getting cramps in my hand from repeating the same thing over and over and over again with that dang 'token on Thud' when the bus is there......I can see some frustrating times ahead for me

Betty Lou,

Linda's website is up .

Hope the Space Bar game be fun for you.

Betty Lou,
Never has getting a character to board a bus been so difficult, but try this:
When Thud finds the token the the cup and holds it, you (as Fleebix) should tell him to board the bus when it pulls up. He will forget to take you with him but will promise to do it next time.

Open the PDA inventory, click on the token, and tell Thud to pick it up. Click on the Fleebix icon in the lower lefthand corner to wait 1X, then turn to face the street. The Glom Hole bus (the wrong one) should arrive and Thud should get on with Fleebix.

Thanks LK for your hint/tips, don't know how or why but being persistent with your suggestion finally paid off after 2+ days, and we 'got on the bus' now am playing hide-n-seek in-out of that big box and yes I am enjoying this game, not going to let it get me frustrated but going to try to finish it this time around. Funny game.....
Love, Betty Lou
P.S. I'll be back, as Arnold says, when I get stuck again :kiss:

Well, I didn't expect to find myself 'stuck' so soon - I seem to be in a loop of ending up (in the box) at the wrong destination and they open the box and arrest use (detain us), so how do I get this to work so I can "after things quiet down exit the box"? HELP! please
Love, Betty Lou

Betty Lou,

I have not played the game, although I have it somewhere... Maybe UHS hints might help also.

I'll see if I can pick up on the wt where you are.

Check if something here might help.

Betty Lou,
I assume you got the letter from the mailbox with the label inside, stuck the label on the box, and got the navigation dial from the plane crash.

Wait inside the box until the mail truck picks it up. Exit the box and tell Thud to open the small box and take the crystal. Stash the crystal and go back into the box. Wait until the voices stop (click Fleebix icon 8 times), then exit box. Click on the navigation dial in inventory and tell Thud to pick it up and put it on the scooter peg. Get back in the box and wait (click icon 6Xs). When Neblitzi says something about the goggles and leaves, exit the box and tell Thud to set the dial to 42. Thud sets it wrong but you don't have time to reset it. Get back in the box. When the voices stop, get out of the box, and you'll be at Quantelope Lodge. Evidently, Thud's mistake is counteracted by a mistake by the driver.

But I have done all that, and get discovered at the wrong address, never do end up at QL. So I guess I have to try from the previous save to see if I can get the desired result, don't know what else to do.....
Love, Betty Lou

Betty Lou,
While you're in the truck after being picked up at the mailbox, you need to hear the destination code (42) being discussed.

You're supposed to arrive at the wrong destination at first. I assume you keep getting caught there. The key is to time your waits using the Fleebix icon. If you go out too soon or too late, you'll get caught.

When the characters outside leave to get a new navigation dial, have Thud drop your navigation dial outside by the scooter and get right back into the box. They will come back and leave again to get the goggles. Exit the box, zoom in on the scooter control panel, have Thud set the navigation dial to 42. Get back in the box and you should end up in front of the lodge near a clock.

I must have done something in the wrong order because even tho I arrive at the wrong destination and DO NOT EXIT the box I still get discovered/caught and arrested/detained. Will go back and redo it again from a previous save. Thanks
Love, Betty Lou

Hi folks I am also in the same situation that Betty Lou was in.I cannot get Thud to board the bus after too many tries.I will try the little trick explained earlier.I thought it was just me,but apparently this game is a little trying.

You will find this game a more than a little trying if you don't keep a good sense of humor going, it is really a very funny game. I'm not sure what 'triggered' me/Thud getting on the bus "finally" but now I am stuck in a refrigerator box getting discovered and arrested, have to start back an earlier saved game to replay and get out of this 'loop'. It does remind me tho of how little kids love LARGE boxes to play with/in I have found several other games to play in between frustrations with this one to keep me wanting to come back to it.
Love, Betty Lou :kiss:

I got Thud and me on the bus using the little trick described earlier,but I'm sure I'll be stuck shortly.Some of these older games are as trying as any.I just finished kings Quest V and even though the walkthrough I used was only 2 pages.It took me plenty of time to finish the game which was well worth it.I must play all "or most of"the older games because a lot of them are real gems.
