In the walkthrough, the picture of the feathers puzzle, in the Injuns world, is not complete.
It was impossible to make a print screen of this puzzle finished because the scroll shut down too quickly.

Then note that one (or two?) feathers are not in the right place, on the left wing of the totem.
But, once understood the principle of this puzzle, it is not so difficult to be successfull if... you don't follow the walkthrough picture feather by feather

Hi grelot.I don't know if you saw my detailed post to Mad--if you scroll up you will find it.The discrepancy of the 2 feathers is on the right wing of the puzzle when you are looking at it, not the left. I just want to say how much I am enjoying the game. You guys really put a LOT of time and effort into it.Thank you all.

I'm not a person who plays a game with a walkthrough to hand. I like to battle through on my own and only consult a walkthrough if driven to do so because I absolutely cannot progress ....

However, if some people prefer to play with a walkthrough, surely that's up to them ??
And it's certainly a much better option than them giving up or even not playing the game at all ??

Anyway, if necessary, I can explain exactly how to place the "feathers in question" so that the puzzle can be completed without causing the player quite so much stress !!

[And to follow the path to the saved games, "show hidden files" has to be enabled in Windows Explorer.]

Thanks again, dorish and Rushes

Cheers.

Hi Mad, yes I am one of those people who use a walkthrough for adventure games. I am 64 and do not have a "gamers' mind". I have only been playing adventure games for the last few years. I would rather use a walkthrough than quit a game out of sheer frustration (which I have done). I play games for enjoyment, not to tear my hair out. For example, I am slowly working my way through The Experiment with a w/t and even with one, it is hard going LOL! In some adventure games, in the puzzles, I don't even know what I am supposed to do, never mind HOW to do it. Kudos to MaG and all the other people out there who write walkthroughs. I love them. I have been able to play (and finish) so many enjoyable games because of them.

I think I might be getting into trouble with this game ??

After fully completing the Injuns World I went to the Bimbos World, where I looked at every island and some of the main central area and completed a few of the quests.
But I found no trace of my friend.
No notes or fragments of paper or whatever. So, I didn't try to finish that world, I went back to The House and from there to the Dwarves World.

Now I've explored quite a lot of this world too and still found no trace of her !!

Does anyone know whether I will continue to make progress if I never find anything from her ??

Cheers.

Mad

You forgot a world, Mad

The game is a non linear one. Then you may go to the (opened) world you want, as soon as you have the amulet.
But who said that Petro has the same possibility ? In the uncle's diary, in the house, there is a hint on how she will travel.
The wife of the dwarves chief will explain it to you, as soon as you may speak with her.
And another hint is in the banner of our website

Hints, hints, hints, Amertis is full of hints

Hi grelot04 and thanks for responding

I haven't actually "forgotten" any of the worlds, I just thought I might be doing something wrong when I had only found traces of the girl in one of the three I had visited, so decided I would ask before going to yet another new one

I guess I'd better also read the diary again then - and go take a closer look at the banner on your website !!

[I have already spoken to the wife of the dwarf chief - if she is the one who is usually with the little boy - but she had hardly anything to say to me. Perhaps she will speak more later.]

Mad.

No, no Mad, this one is the young girl, and she mays help you, but she has poor conversation
The wife of the chief is in the group near the house.

Ahhhhh .... grelot04 !!

It seems I needed to open the Injun, Bimbo, Dwarf and Robot worlds

When I was in the Dwarves world before opening the Robot World (which was when I last posted here) no one in that group near the house was interactive. I could only speak to the Chief, the Healer and the female dwarf with the little boy.
But now I have opened the Robots World as well - making four worlds open altogether - the Chief's wife IS interactive

AND I am finding traces of my lady friend here and there so am making better progress

[I realise why, too, now, of course !!]

Cheers.

Mad

Not really. You may open each world one after the other if you want.
The fact is that, if Rodrigue may travel on a non-linear way, it is not the same for Petro who is under the actions of Rodrigue, as well as Rodrigue progression is under the "travel" of Petro.
Then, Amertis is a non-linear game with, inside, a linear component

Hi grelot04

Yes. As I said, I do realise that now. But for a while it was rather confusing and I thought I was either doing something wrong or not doing something I should have been doing

As with any adventure game, discovering pertinent information AND keeping it in mind is not always easy

Cheers.

Mad

Well, hopefully this will be my last request for help

I started this session of play by entering the dragon's den and got as far as needing to "make" the bird picture but the pieces wouldn't interact when I clicked on them.

I presumed I had missed something which would trigger an interaction so took a peek at the walkthrough and the only thing I can see that I have missed is a retrieval of the note from Jules that dropped out when I opened the statue mouth

I did immediately climb down the ladder at the time to get it but never found it and then completely forgot about it

Could this be the missing trigger ??

And if it is, could I please have a hint as to where the note fell because I've just been back and searched that screen and several adjoining screens and can't find it

Thanks.

Mad

Hi mad,
I had trouble here too.I saw the paper float away but I could not find it.It is impossible to see and it was pure luck I found it.Click all around on the lower right quadrant of the picture until you accidently hit upon it.

Thanks, Geo.

Mad.

Yes, thanks, Geo !! I will try that

EDIT :
From Geo's very helpful tip I did find the note from Jules and then went back to the dragon's den to build the bird - but there is still no interaction.

I don't know what to try now
