(Trivia: An alternate solution is to make use of the ingredient list. This was actually the original solution, but a beta tester suggested the rope thing and I agree that it's better. It's probably also the only solution anyone finds.)

Got the boat, put it together, now where did I see some cloth for a sail (will Gurra's rug do? and a pole to put it on?), or those funny sticks I can use for oars?...........
Love, Betty Lou

No sail. No oars. You need something to pull the boat.

Ah, would that funny bird do it maybe? Try to lasso it with the rope?
Love, Betty Lou

You are on the right track.

Well, I am not able, yet, to rope the bird, but have fed it a couple of bananas - should I keep feeding it so it gets 'heavy' and I can catch it?
Love, Betty Lou Oh, and Good Morning

Maybe you could find something else to throw?

Good Evening,

Rikard

Thanks Rikard, that clue was just right. And my eyes must be playing tricks on me, I could have sworn that was stored under the bar, did not see it get thrown out the window.....lol
On the island now, poking around, see ya later
Love, Betty Lou :kiss:

Betty Lou, when you said you fed the bird a bunch of bananas, that made me think of something I was wondering yesterday. Brianna threw one banana at the bird before she figured out what to do--I hope she's not going to need that banana somewhere down the road? She still has several left, but the tree is bare, so she can't get any more.

Does anyone know about this--she is sailing right along and having such fun (her mother had to drag her out of her the other day ), I would hate to have her hit a big snag.

Also, I added "contains spoilers" to your title, Betty Lou--we've gotten enough answers in this thread that I thought it would be better to warn people. This is such a cute game that I would hate to see someone read more than they wanted to know...

There is no way to get rid of the last banana until it's not needed any more. Unless you find a new and unknown bug somewhere, there is no way to place the game in an unwinnable state.

oh yes there is. I used the rope too soon on the boat scenario and could not get it untied to use it by itslef with the sneeze remedy. Stuck now at the combination puzzle o=9??tried many combos with this still stuck

hydepark4 - you can try to solve the puzzle yourself, or you can ask someone in the game to help you with it.

The sneeze remedy can be solved in an alternative way, without the rope.

This is funny - I got Frasse changed to a wabbit. Still walking in the dark - I mean sparks! Thanks, Trumgottist.

-- not anymore.

Oh Boy, I seem to make it just so far on the ideas that come to me then I get STUCK...I got past the troll, up to Tom and picked up an item and borrowed an item, started a fire half way up and don't know what to do now. Met the sister too, but that's been the end of our conversation. What do I do now to proceed, can't cook supper, don't want cooked berries, she does not need anything and I want to get to the top! HELP if you can please
Love, Betty Lou
