Hi MaGtRo Sorry to bother you once again, I'm stuck on the Moving Stones in the Secret Passage, I have your walkthrough which has been a great help, but I place the stone on the crack in the middle front of the moving block, watch out for label on top stone+crack click on it and doesn't work for me, the girl seems to slow to do it and seems to put it in the wrong place, I have placed her right in front of stone but she seems to go to the left, sorry about this, if there is a save game for this part I would be greatful.

Here's some pointers from Rushes:

Stand Sylvie a little way over to the right of the block, you'll see that your cursor will change to show that you're in the right area.

What worked for me at this point, was to observe the dark line running across the back inside wall of the hole. As the block starts rising back up towards this line, immediately throw the stone on the crack.

And check this old post: here.

I also sent you a saved game.

from Joy...re The Scorpio Rituals...
Ever heard of Murphie's Law....well he's at it again !!!!lol
I just returned to the place where I was stuck and played around with the urn once more and lo and behold I "pushed the right button " and I was able to continue ...hope I havnt wasted too much of your time....no doubt I will be talking to you later...cheers Joy

Glad you solved the puzzle, Joy. Enjoy the game.

re. "The Scorpio Ritual"
I have now reached the part where I am in the Chamber and in the fireplace with the buttons to be pressed in the order of 749625....I have lightened the dark place as much as possible and can just see the tyles and think I am pressing them in the right order but it doesnt work.
Is there a trick to this please....Joy

Hi Joy,

Did you also clean the tiles at the base of the fireplace? They are a vital clue to the tile puzzle above it.

Also double check that the middle upper tile has been fully cleaned - if Sophie mentions that the cloth is too slack, then the cleaning won't have been done and you need to secure the cloth with the thread. That's caught a few people out.

Hi Rushes....thanks for your helpful reply.
I have managed to get past the fireplace cleaning
now...but I have no idea what I did wrong before.
Now I have to tackle those moving blocks. I see there is someone else having trouble with those
so I will be able to use your helpful advise to get past that (I hope) looks like patience is needed cheers, many thanks Joy

Glad you got through.
Good luck with the blocks - if you need any help just shout!

such a great game - music is sooooooo good - i had trouble with the blocks too but, mag's hint did it for me - takes a coupla of tries though - diver
