Hi Gang.......
I'm trying to collect the four things I need for Violet's invention to get rid of the snakes. I've been all over this area a bazillion times and can only find the lever in the wall that leads you to find the "rim" for the barrel. I can't get into the area where the big snake is, as can't find a key. I assume the other three pieces I need are in that area?

Thanks a bunch!
Witchen

Lately, I've been watching my son play this more than actually playing it myself. (In fact, I can hardly get him out of the game so I can use the computer.)

In this part, I think you need to look high on the walls to see if you've missed a switch that you can pull down with the yanker-invention. Also, make sure you've blasted open all available barrels, boxes, etc.

Witchen, You need to go to the last room upstairs. Near the back wall is some boxes and a stand. When you break the stand, the wall opens and you can go to another area, which will lead you down and to the other side. You will come back up near the big snake. You won't need to get in the cage where the big snake is.

Hi Kay and Becky............To the rescue..thankfully

I did manage to find that blinkin' urn, Kay, to break so I could get through the wall in that last room where the fire is burning. Whew! That was a mystery.

Becky, I know what you mean about the kids/boys and this game. My little buddy, Max, age 8, got me started on this game and I've been stealing time as I can get it to get back into it. Its a whole bunch of fun!

I just now beat the snake basket puzzle and am now in the room with the guy with the hooks for hands. Boy, is he hard to beat or what? What's the secret to beating this guy when my health runs out so quickly?

Thanks whole bunches....er, bunches of feathers, that is! LOL

Witchen

Are you playing pc or console? Am stuck in factory where two of them are in a cage and can't find a lever anywhere and two actresses to fight.

acornia,
If you are playing the pc version, you just need to fight with the ladies and when you are finished, the cage will come down It may be different with the console version.

witchen,
The best way I found to beat them is after I stun them with one item, run to the hearts and get your health back up, then get them with another item. Their aim isn't very good if you are moving around.
Good Luck!
Kay

That's the problem. One lady can stun twice and she leaves. The other one if you stun her twice, cage goes into the pit--doesn't stop. Am playing the pc version. Will try again.

acornia,
When you stun the second lady, the cage starts to come down, then the game takes you back to the reptile place. Sounds like you may have a glitch in the game. The cage shouldn't go down in the pit. If you keep having a problem with it, I have a save just after fighting the two ladies.
Good Luck!
Kay

Hi Acornia......I'm playing PC and I think I just came through the area where you are, where Klaus and the baby are stuck in the cage and the two white-faced women are running around in a warehouse area where you can fall into the water. If this is it it does sound like you may have a problem. Kay has some good advice just above.

Also, thanks Kay on the advice to fight the hooked hand man in the first snake area. That's pretty much what I've been doing, but with this guy, your health is as fleeting as snowflakes in hades......LOL I'll keep practicing! Thanks!

Witchen

Yep, am in the snake area now with just one item left to find.

Go Acornia!

If you beat that devil man with the hooked hands, I'll be waiting to hear how you did it. I haven't had time to get back to the game the past couple of days. Christmas preparation is seriously cutting into my game time...bwahahahahahaha.

Witchen

Use the feathers. Also can run out into the other run and go left--he'll get hung up on the wall next to the door. Still looking for the fourth item--barrel rim? Found one secret room in the steam area. Lever opener is up by the ceiling. If you haven't been in there go to the back under the flue as fast as you can.

Okay, Acornia, thanks....I will concentrate on the feathers then. ...I've been through the steam area and also found the rim.

There's a lever up the stairs from the snakes to the left of an archway. If you pull it, a picture of a lizard high on the wall to the right of the archway, moves to reveal an eye button. Press it for a moving wall.

Witchen

Been through and done the snake basket room. Just haven't found the rim. Might need to change ammo with the hook man. If his points aren't going down, swap out the ammo. Need to knock him out a couple of times. Is there anything to do with the snakehead fountain?

Nope, Acornia, there's nothin' to do with the snakehead fountain. For the rim:

You'll have to go back up the red stairs above the first room where the snakes are crawling around on the floor. Go down that hallway and see the lever in the wall straight ahead of you. Pull the lever and quickly move to the right of the archway beside you. See the button under the lizard picture. Punch it...the rest is history.
