Okay, Richard, here I be.
Question: have you fiddled with the horse yet?

Gil.

Yes I have I put it on the pedestal and turned it but which way do I turn it.
Richard

Try putting the compass on the horse.

Gil.

Will do Gil never thought of that. Which way should the horse be north,south east or west.Thanks
Richard

Richard,



Now, you can help me if I'm still hanging around in #3 once you get there.

Gil.

Gil there are four directions in the poem will try them all.
Richard

Do it as if you're opening a safe, Richard, first one direction then another.

Gil.

Gil I don't know how you did it. I've been trying so hard but no luck. Would you send me a step by step on how you did it. Sure would appreciate it. Thanks
Richard

Hang on, Richard, I have an earlier save so I'll go back and see just what I did.
Be back soon!

Okay, here's what you do.

Take it from there or do this if you want to.


Now you're in just the right place to get stuck with me.


Gil.

Thanks Gil I'm at the art gallery now. Haven't done anything yet. Just saved it. Gil where about are you now. reading the book from the gallery. trying to climb the cliff
Richard

Hey, Richard,

I'm right behind you but not likely to play any more tonight.
I've got
That lighthouse isn't being cooperative.
Anyway, don't run off and leave me at the bottom of this cliff!

Gil.

Gil did you get the moss and polish the shield? Did you look at the clouds on the light house. I've got the other things. How do I add a spoiler to the tex.
Looking for a bowl. I light a fire in the light house. Fighting a duel with the dragon.
Richard

Whahoo!
Where did you find a dragon?



To add a spoiler, you have to be on the Reply or Quote screen. The thing that looks like a megaphone up at the top will insert spoiler tags if you click on it once you highlight the text you want to hide.

If you forget to use Reply or Quote, you can always hit Switch to Full Reply Screen after you've finished typing, the way I did here. Man, you'd think I would remember that.

Gil.

I haven't figured out how to get to the top of the cliff.
Richard

Hey, there you are!
I started the fire.
Now my problem is producing smoke, I think.

I haven't worked my brain this hard since GK1.
When it gets to be too much I go and clobber some orcs in Divine Divinity before I come back and think about it again.
Love those orcs; this is my 2 zillionth playthrough of that. (Slight exaggeration but not by much.)

Congratulations on hiding that text!


Gil.

Gil you have to defeat the dragon.
Richard

Have you tried anything yet?


Gil.

I still can't defeat the dragon. I given two bowls of water but nothing worked. Something to do with the third well on top of the cliff. I think we have to get up there.

Hello woundered if one of you could help stuck in the art gallery .Found the saw but he says it will make to much noise .Could you please help ta

dragonuk44,.

thanks

Oh, boy.
IMO, the only way we're going to get to the top of the cliff is to ride the dragon

Gotta tax my brain again.

Aargh.


Gil.

Thanks for that stuck geting the paper out now lol

The item you need is in the secretaire in Signe's room, as I recall.

Good luck!
Come join us on the beach with that pesky dragon.


Gil.

try my best lolAll he says is he dos nt want to search it without a reason got them

Well, it's not actually "in" the secretaire, as I just saw when I replayed to that point.
Look on top.
It's a small greyish white line.
Welcome to the world of pixel hunting!

Gil.

on the beach .As any one defeated the dragon

Still working on him dragonuk44. He's a tought nut to crack.
Richard

Ive emptied my flask into the bowel but I need a way to kill him befor he eats me

WOW! This game is really "taking off", fellow Boomers. I'm playing the DEMO, but I'm afraid that I'm going to need a walkthrough. If a wt becomes available, I will definitely purchase the FULL version. Meanwhile I'm still "trudging along" at the beginning. HAPPY GAMING!
Sandy

I think we all need a WT Sandy. It's a hard game I think. I like it though.
Richard

just like old times lol

I noticed that the DEMO does NOT allow loading of games once you have "quit" it. I'll just have to start over again, "Life is full of obstacles." LOL
Sandy

WELL, I 'bit the bullet" and purchased the game from GOG. When I played the DEMO, I was able somehow to get TO the "code" puzzle (at the start of the game), but I don't remember how I did it, so I'm "stuck" here. How do you get to that CODE INTERFACE in order to do the puzzle? I saved the part just after solving that puzzle in the DEMO, but those saves are NOT compatible with the FULL version (You get an error message when trying to LOAD those saves that I made in the DEMO.) Sure could use a WT right about now.
Sandy

the book on the book shelf then match the numbers in the code

Look at the book.
Notice the ISBN code is odd and may be some other kind of code.
Look at the newspaper if you haven't already.
Ord makes a comment.
Go to your bookshelf and choose the book on Chemistry.

Gil.

as any one defeated the dragon

Not me.
There is a few seconds pause after the dragon speaks to Freja.
It may mean something but I haven't figured out what if it does.

Gil.

I'm still in the running trying to defeated the dragon. Haven't figured out how.
There isn't nothing I haven't tried. If you figured it out Gil just let me know. I've looked all over for a WT but no luck.

It worked.


I see why it killed Semita but I'm still not sure about...well, maybe I'll figure out how Freja survives later.
Edit: Dumb me.


Gil.

Gil I'm in the dragons cave. Picked up some inventory items. Semita is dead I think.

I made it out of the dragon cave. I could tell you how I did it but it was really easy and don't want to spoil it for you. I'm at the island of Fardo now.
Richard

yes it worked doing a little sewing lol

Thanks, Dragon and Gil. The CHEMISTRY BOOK is the thing that I forgot about. My memory AIN'T what it used to be. LOL
Sandy

Thanks for the clues, fellow Boomers. I'm now in DAY 2(at the "estate" and standing next to the pedestal with "4 holes".

Just wondering if anybody has gone to the cabin. Really stuck.
Richard

Hey, Richard,

Long day at work, just getting back to it.
Okay, I'm sure the chess puzzle has to do with something Ord mentioned before about placing 8 Queens so none of them threaten one another.
Oh, boy, and me an ignoramus when it comes to chess - but can't a Queen move in any direction?
Maybe it's one place at a time.
I'll have to look it up.
Maybe they can be jammed up against one another so they can't move; i.e., 8 queens straight across.
Haven't tried it yet.
Maybe the King can be moved if you get the queens placed correctly.
Could the chest key be under him?

What you see through the telescope must relate to the poem.
The ancient hero is probably Hercules.
You see images of the constellations derived from the labors of Hercules, I think, in the Diary.
"All but one have gone asunder."
Well, I suppose that means only one is complete and will offer the clue to the numbers on the chest's lock.
That image on the lock looks like a harpy to me.

"Wandering from sea to sea" may have to do with what you see when you click on Chapter One

I hope you crack it because I doubt I'll have an answer soon!

Half a sec later: Ord saw that problem about the queens when he was taking a random book down from the shelf in the library.


Gil.

the 2 numbers on the chest I think have some thing to do with the teliscope when you get the correct sign .Be later tonight when I get back to it .

The correct sign is harpy 4 and 8 on the telescope. That's as far as I got. Don't know anything about chess.
Richard

I don't either, Richard, but if we need it here is a site that explains the rules.

Gil.
Hi, ho, hi, ho....

I think you have to put the ches pieces like one of the constalations

Makes sense, dragon.
I'm probably over-thinking this.
Have you tried it?

Gil.

Gil I got the chess figured out and you get the chest key.

Hi, Richard,
Yes! Dragon was right.

Go back to sleep?
I'd love to!

Gil.

yes done it trying get in the bunker or the ship yard now

So am I dragonuk44,just went to the church and looked around. Haven't done much yet.
Richard

got to get some pics for Saras fathers friend ..

I'm stuck trying to get into the bunker

Jaap,where did you find the cane.
Richard

I'm scheduled for a meeting with the priest but I'll be darned if I can find a cane!

Gil.

You get the cane after you solve the puzzle in the church (and take the pictures, and give it to journalist).
Asking about the meeting with the priest can be used as a decoy to obtain an item from his office...

I took the key and opened the panel and put the key back. Rang the bells and got the priest mad now what do I do. What pictures do I take?
Richard

ok put cooler fan in the candle effort lol but he wont turn it on .Got the book on latin can some one tell me what I am missing ta

.

thanks Kjos never thought of that .Wont do it as priest still in the room .try with the fan again .Sorry got it wrong yes it worked

got the appointment and the key .Thanks

ok the bells are driving me nuts .rang the bells .Hid behind door sneaked in .You get about 3 secs to do what ever . Thought you may have to unlock the back door no . What do I do . ta

dragonuk44,

Thanks Jaap.
I'm in the priest room what do I do in there.
Richard

still stuck at the bunker :(

Jaap,



Gil.

thank you Jaap.Yes I put the key back .Try turn the fan on again lol

Jaap,

You're brilliant!

Gil.

Got into the bunker using these numbers Richard

It's great to see this group effort. Thanks, guys, for all of the help you are giving to one another.

How come your not playing to Marian. Really a good but awful hard.
Richard

nice one.Stuck in the cell now lolstone on the bird got him to eat but then Jailer comes in and I have to start again

I just realized all the clues for the bunker were randomly available as books in the library... Anyway, I'm glad I did figure it out though

the cell bit is very specific about were you're standing in the end, silly controls ...

No time right now, Richard. But I am definitely interested in playing it at some point.

You will knock the jailer out.
Richard

Btw, is every game I play from now on going to have a goat in it?

How are you doing on the lock?
Only one of the puzzles makes any sense to me as I'm trying to match them up with the lock.

Gil.

Gil do you know how to open the large gate leading to the mountain. thanks
Frega is trying to open the gate.

Richard

Richard,

"If I am yours, you must keep me; give me away and I will die."
Could that be 'heart' instead of 'coffin'?

'Bed' and 'candle' look right, depending on which candle you choose.
I suppose the one that's no longer lit, though the burning candle is on a holder with a handle for carrying.

Could the fourth one be 'key'?

Gil.
No answers so no spoilers.

Stumped again.

Was that worth a spoiler?


Gil.

Dragon,
I'm in the bunker.


Gil.

sorry thought you were in the story part .Theres a stinky bit in that to .Soz doing the story bit lol.Like getting 2 stories in one game lol.There is a forum on steam about this game to

I know.
Freja seems to be giving directions to Ord. <g>

Problem is, the only thing remotely like a pet (goat) for milking I've seen is Herbert the tree.
Lot of help he is.

Gil.

traveler have you taken a closer look at the fan

I can't anymore, not since I turned it around.
Can I?
Off to work, darn it.
I'll see when I get back.

Gil.

if youve turned around then its ok .Im locked in the room now .SStuck in both sstoriess lol There is info on steam about this bit but still cant get the code for the door .Got code but the guard wont let me through .Need some items Stuck now

I decided to give this game a go and it certainly works the brain cells !!

I'm in Fardo Church (and had to sometimes peak at this thread to even get me THIS far) but now I'm definitely stuck


Can anyone help me out, please ??
I do like the game but this part is driving me mad

think you have to go into the conffession booth

Yes. I tried to get in that way as well .... but ....



I'm probably being very brainless

have you got your conffesion off Stig if so you should be able to get through that door

Mad,
You just have to keep trying. As soon as the priest comes out and heads for the bell panel, zip out from behind the bookcase door and plug in the fan.
(I assume you have the cord pulled out of the plug-in next to the door, not the extension.)
Then head through the door.

You think this is a pain?
Wait until you run into the plate & bird! Lol!

I think dragon is talking about a different door inside the priest's quarters but I may be wrong since I'm not all that familiar with church terms.
There is another door next to the confession booth that has a red/green button panel beside it.
All you have to do to get that door to open is change the light to green.


Gil.

Dragon,



Gil.

Heeelllpp!
Where is something that 'smells'?

Going nuts here,
Gil.

So. I go from my save where the fan is NOT plugged in.
[Which I must have tried 20 times already !!]
But at least I know I AM trying to do the right thing ....

The only "red/green light" door I've seen is in the Church Hall (next door, where Stig is sitting) and not in the Church itself but I haven't been able to change the light from red to green on it OR talk to Stig.
[All I've been able to do with Stig so far is give him a book - after removing the bookmark from it.]

Thanks to both of you and if I do ever get past this sticking point I'm sure I'll back here again in no time requesting more help from you !!

Right. When the priest starts off to the right, you want to be as close as you can get to the door without going through it, right next to the plug-in. Then quickly plug the fan in.
When I tried it again, going directly to the plug-in didn't work...which may just be something that only happens to me since I had lots of trouble just getting Ord to stand behind the bookcase door.



If you right click on that red/green light, Ord will say something about it's only working from one side.
In this case, the inside.
The priest pushes the button to let someone in to hear his confession.
So, you have to get into his quarters before you can open that door.


Hurry up, Mad! I need some help stinking this guy out of the bunker.

Gil.
Aargh!

Just came back to say .... YAHOO !!
Got into the Sacristy at last and did the dirty deed. AND also got to listen to Stig confess
[Yes. I, too, had difficulty getting Ord to hide behind that bookcase door.]

I have also met with an "Activist" in a pub - but couldn't treat myself to a well deserved drink whilst I was in there because there wasn't a barman in sight !!



Rest assured, if I DO ever catch you up (which I seriously doubt) I'll see if I can offer you some assistance

You aren't very far behind us now, Mad, so get a move on, will ya?
I'm getting a Grade A headache here from banging my head on this bunker.



Goody.
WHAT?

Gil.

if you mean as the girl traveler.As boy

yes got to the end lolof that chapter .Stuck in the bunker where the crates are now seems like I have to hide

think I have to move the weopen can anyone help please got the weapen hooked .Got hide it then myself.Moved weapon over the skip drops off and I get caught lol

I'm in the bunker how do I get in the door on the right side of the bunker. I have to put some numbers in the key pad. Where do I find them. There is a lot of funny writing on the wall. I can get out of the bunker using the ladder but no where to go. Thanks
Richard

I think you got out of the bunker, dragon.
What weapon?
What is a "skip"?
Dumb me, that was a typo, should have been "ship", right?
The ship is certainly big enough so you must be using the crane.
We're not there yet!

Richard, you have to use those signs to get the numbers on the numberpad.
Read Chapter 2 again.

I went back to the bar and the rocker is gone so I can use the jukebox.
Put the coin in and was given a selection of songs.
There's one called Rescue Me and another called Lock It Away.
I've listened to those two but don't have time to think about it or listen to more of them.
A clue in one of those maybe?

Gil.

yes messing with this dam crane lol

I got into the bunker but couldn't do much - and now am reading Chapter Two of "the book".

[This game isn't getting any easier !!

Mad when you are reading chapter 2 where do you go. I have to play all of chapter 2 to get the botton panel. WOW.
I'm stuck in the bunker and can't get out. All the doors are locked.
