Chris, on the "You must have hope" puzzle, how should the sentence read after doing what line 15 says and in line 16, does it say swap the 10th letter and the "I" Thanks, FJT

Line 15 should read:
CANNOTAIOVDTFADE

Line 16: Swap the tenth letter and the I, then replace the second to last letter with T, then remove the letter after the remaining D.

Got it MaG. Thanks a lot. So I have 5 shards now. I've weighed the candy. Conquered the work schedule puzzle. What's up with the peg puzzle downstairs? What's the object?

The walkthrough states that you can unlock this puzzle now but does not have any reason to. I found it in the next chapter.

If you want to do it: Place the 4 pegs in the trapdoor so that all lines are lit. A peg will light up all the lines connected to it.

Hi FJT,

Let' see...I'm not sure which shards you have already, so I'll just list places to check to find all of them:

- The work schedule puzzle (you definitely got this one)

- The chest backstage (I think you got this)

- The scale on the counter in the lobby

- The slider puzzle in the office

- The cash register in the lobby

- The men's restroom floor tile puzzle

Hi Chris. I didn't get the one from the scale. I weighed the candy and that's as far as I got. Did not see any other hot spots.

Thanks MaG. I did this and nothing happened.

The trapdoor puzzle is supposed to unlock the trapdoor.

Hi FJT,

Did you grab a cup from the counter? You can put it down next to the scale.

I'll have to look for that cup and trapdoor. Thanks to you both.

Hi, FJT. I DID get the shard from the scale. First use the Scizzors(in inventory) with the bag of candy to get an OPEN bag of candy. Then, in CLOSEUP view of the scale use the open bag of candy on the scale. Then in the CLOSEUP view of the scale,REMOVE the cany from the scale.Then, also in CLOSEUP view of the scale,
drag the CUP from inventory onto the far right of the screen. Then use the open bag of candy on the CUP. Then use the (now partially empty) bag (from inventory) and drag it onto the scale. A drawer on the right side of the scale will open. Click on it to get the shard.
I reccomend that you purchase the "Companion"
book from Chris's website.It has all of the solutions to every puzzle in the game.
By the way, I DON'T get a commission!

Thanks Sanford. I did happen to figure it out along with the trap door puzzle. Am now involved with hearing the whole story about Ferucil and his victims and will proceed from there. Hope you're enjoying the game as well.

In the projector puzzle, if the lower left and upper right arrows light up, does that mean the correct tiles are in place in those 2 positions?

Let's wait for someone that has done the puzzle.

Not necessarily, no. It simply means that a line is pointing at the arrows. The key to this puzzle is to ensure not only that a single line connects the lower-left arrow to the upper-right, but also that the line goes through every tile.
