I can't find a lot of specific help for the sheep. I do have the official strategy guide for the game, and all it says is that once you have all the sheep in the barn, return to the paddock and look inside, and the door automatically locks when you leave.

If you are having trouble rounding them up, here is one suggestion I found:

Quote:
There should be a counter in the top corner of your screen, if I'm remembering correctly, that tells you how many sheep are in the barn. You need to catch ten.

It can be helpful if you move Nancy around with the arrows on your keyboard and use your mouse to blow the whistle so that you can get the sheep as soon as you see them on the screen.

I have found this puzzle to be the most time consuming, myself.

What I can tell you from my past times of playing this game is, don't rush it, and be patient. It may take time, but eventually you'll get all ten. Also, I found using the keyboard arrows is easiest. I usually keep my left hand on the space and my right with a finger on the up, left and right arrows (when needed I move a finger down to the down) also, I keep my mouse's pointer on the whistle icon so that when a sheeps in my area and I press the space bar, Nancy blows on the whistle.

It's been awhile since I've played, so I hope I recollected well enough to help smile

I saved my game when I had about 8 sheep. That way I could go back to the saved game if I had trouble finding the last two.

I did not find this to be one of the easier Nancy Drew games - there are several very tricky parts.

I don't have a saved game for right after that - the next part of the walkthrough after the sheep are locked in takes you to the standing stones - I do have a saved game after that puzzle there is completed. I will send it to you just in case it helps.

You are most welcome.

There is a video here that supposedly shows how to get all the Easter eggs in the game - maybe that will help.

I really don't have a better explanation than the GameBoomers walkthrough - you just have to use your own judgment.

and they didn't say how to get ace flyer, never mind they did, 1. Ace Flyer- for using the jetpack to get around
This is pretty easy, but slightly tedious. Once you have the jetack and Nancy is zipping around Ireland through air, fly to every location on the map, even if you don't need to. Which means flying to: The rock in the ocean, the fairy circle, the bog hut, the garden, the crosses, the wall opening, obviously the tower, the main castle, the barn, the stone circle, the old tree, the Malloy gate, the end of the road on the left, and the Screaming Banshee Inn. cool lab puppy

NancyDrew_Fan36, I sent you a saved game for that part of the game. The save is for junior/amateur mode of difficulty - if you need the other one, I might have that one too; I would have to check.
