here I am with another simple question. Got the tracing paper, having trouble with water blessing. used artifact on glyph,saw box and contents. Went back, threw coin in water, lit blue and then brown candle but it keeps showing icon above water,don't know what else to do, what should I be doing? thanks.

Sleuth are you sure you are lighting the correct candles? I think the brown one you need to light is at the bottom. That could be what's holding you back.

Hi.
Firstly, the door code for me ISN'T random, been the same each time (4 now) I've used it. I'm also unable to get passed the Sentry stone AND now my cell is not charged again. Going back to the charger does no good since it won't go into it! I've restarted this game TWICE and am now frustrated even WITH a walkthrough. MaGtRo helped me learn to love Dreamfall's fight sequences, so I have faith. But maybe the game is, dare I say, a little buggy?

Topher I don't know why you are running into problems. I had not heard of anyone's cell phone not staying charged.
The only way around the sentry is to solve other puzzles elsewhere. But you probably need to be able to make phone calls to truly advance in the game.
Did you do the telecommunication tower puzzle already?
My codes were different every time I played and I never had any glitch problems either.

Sue

Congratulations Sleuth

Except maybe getting the lamp lit, getting into the 2 rooms, doing the stuff that was in the demo and wandering around a lot, I've mainly explored. I haven't done any actual puzzles yet. When I saw the sentry stone (and not using a walkthrough at first) I touched it and died. Then on my second chance it backed off and radiated, but would never move again. I got into the 2 motel rooms, by the note and by bugging the guy in the office. Found the cell, and charged it ok. Later I had No charge.

Ok, nix the part about the cell, it reads 'No Signal', not 'No Charge'! I am SO losing it. I still can't get past the Sentry stone, and I've been everywhere I can go, at least twice! Thank you for all help.

Topher you need to go fix the communication tower around the side of the cafe to get a signal. I think once your phone is active that you will be able to do other things in the game.
Good luck

Sue

Thank you for the info. That is the place with the chain link fence, right? Haven't found a way inside. I have been collecting a LOT of stuff, though and got inside room 3. Still can't get by the Sentry stone.

Topher look for a hot spot low on the chain link gate and see if you can't slip inside.
Good luck

Sue

Thank you so much. I have been searching for a key or monkey wrench all over!

Well that must have been frustrating for you Topher! As soon as I got the hotspot, I immediately started fiddling around with things. That seems to be a bad habit I've acquired, steal things and fiddle around with whatever and pray I don't die.
Have fun looking for things to take and mix with others.

Sue

This game is lots of fun. I have stolen everything I could get my hands on PLUS tasted the delicious tart in the kitchen area.

Can anyone tell me EXACTLY where the oilcan is in the garage? Thank you!

Topher if I remember correctly, the oilcan is in the office on the desk.
Please stay with your original thread for this game, it makes it easier to find where you are and what you have accomplished.
Thank you

Sue
