Zak McKracken - Between Time and Space

Hi Guys

I am in Mexico and at the top of the Pyramid and I am trying to get into the secret passage, I have check the WT on YouTube and copied the Drawing but Zak keeps saying that it is not right, I have tried doing it without crossing the lines, doing it backwards etc but he still says the same thing that it is not right,anyone got the solution to this

Many Thanks
SAFC

SAFC,

It might not be the correct drawing.

I cannot find a picture of the drawing from the walkthroughs I checked.
It might be best - if you can take a screenshot of that You Tube video drawing solution and then copy it while playing.

Maybe another gamer can help you with this game.

Have you got the relevant stone tablet in inventory, SAFC ??

If you have .... THIS .... YouTube video shows you how to draw the correct picture.
[Just keep fast forwarding through the video until you get to the right spot.]

We appreciate the help, Mad.

Hi Mad

I dont have the stone, I checked the German version of the video WT and Zak gets part of the stone in the jungle and the second part from the Air Port but when I try there are no stones there, I have a feeling that they might be in the Scouts camp but I can get past that darn dog

Cheer
SAFC

Have you thoroughly read the newspapers ??

Hi Mad

I have tried to get a newspaper from the machine in the Mexican Airport but Zak just say he is not interested in that Gossip Mag, dont say I have to go all the way back to the other Air Port!!!!

Cheers
SAFC

I can't remember which newspaper or where I got it - but I do know that the answer to getting past the dog is feeding it something - and you find out what that something is by reading a newspaper article

Hi Guys

I am totaly stuck now, I have tried getting the newspaper from the stand in the Mexican Airport, I have gone back to LA and tried the newspaper machine there and nothing, I have read the scrunched up peice of news paper but I am still no further forward, anyone got a pointer, cheers Mad for you help

Cheers
SAFC

To enter the scout camp ....

BIG SPOILER !!



You Tube has a full walkthrough in sequential video clips HERE and although not in English it does offer excellent help.

Hi Mad

Thanks for the pointer, I think I will start the game again as I may have missed something at the start, once again thanks for your help

Cheers
SAFC

Are you sure you need to start the game all over again, safc ??

Have you tried just visiting earlier locations to see if you've missed anything ??

Anyway, whatever you decide, I hope you enjoy the game.

I thought it was really good, myself

Thanks for the help, Mad.

Hi Guys

Back again, I have played the game from the beginning again right up to saving the Geologists, but the only piece of news paper I have found is the bit from the waste bin in Zak Office, I have read through it but I can see any reference to the drawing of the stone tablet, does anyone know where I get the other news papers from

Cheers
SAFC

safc ....

I can't remember now where you find newspapers - apart from the obvious places - but the info you need to find in the newspaper to help get you into the Scout Camp is about "a dog" not a stone tablet.

Hi Mad

Thanks for the little pointer, I remember that the advert on the TV at the start is for a dog treat, I will check my piece of News Paper again

Cheers
SAFC

Hi Guys

You all must be sick of me by now, I have tried everything but I still cant find the news paper that gives me the solution to opening the secret passage, I have watched Mads pointer video link and tried that drawing but that didnt work, I have also tried the drawing from anyother viedo and again that didnt work, has anyone got the answer as to where I get the solution or the stone tablet needed to open the secret door, as I am now going round and round in circles, many thanks in advance

Cheers
SAFC

safc.

I'm sorry I haven't been able to help you overcome your problems.
[It's quite a while now since I played the game and at this late date I simply can't remember every step that got me through it.]

I do have a PDF text format walkthrough which I could zip and send to you, if you would like to try that. Just let me know.

[It's not in English but using the Google Translater on a paragraph at a time should work well enough to give an understanding of what steps to take.]

Cheers.

Mad

Thanks, Mad.

safc - the pdf Mad mentioned does help a bit when you get it translated.. I didn't need the tablets - odd -- but I noticed a "drawing" on the left wall of the pyramid and I copied that and got into the temple.. if you see a drawing there - give that a shot.

In the meantime - I am very stuck myself --- In Scotland - I spoke with the fisherman who is gone now but there is a big fish he caught on the ground but it is hairless. I retraced step after step but get nowhere - what do I need to do now?

Hi sureshot

I'll have to bow out from trying to help further as I can't remember enough actual "play" detail.
But several other Gameboomer members played the game so maybe one will come along to assist who has a better memory than me !!

However, I'm sure the pointer you need is bound to be either in one of the YouTube clips (I gave the address for them) or the PDF walkthrough.

Good Luck !!

Cheers.

Mad

Hi all,

I just found an english walkthrough of that game.

Hi Guys

Success I am now inside the Temple, I started in the Hard mode and everything worked, in the easy mode you cant get the piece of the stone tablet off the wall and you dont get the other piece in the jungle,thanks to to Mad and pnormand I can now go on and hopefully complete the game - Doh a quick edit, I forgot to pick up the Lighter in Zaks Office now I have to go all the way back

Cheers
SAFC
