In fact two questions:

Is there any way to save, or does it always put you back outside Zandi's trailer? (Although what I had already done was still done.)

I have one feather lit on the sign, does that mean there are four tasks to accomplish in the demo?

I love the ambient sounds...

OK, Jenny. Here's the story...

Let me keep the answer simple, because it is a little different after you get past the "Cleft" age, which the demo covers.

There is not a conventional save; Uru saves based upon progress. Progress is determined by the number of "Journey Cloths" (those hand symbols) that you press in each age. There are seven Journeys to touch in each age to move on. If you have touched one, then you have six more to get.

The game will remember how many you have touched and will let you go back to where your progress has taken you.

This is the simple answer. It will become clear when you get into the game.

Are you playing the Demo?

Yes, I'm playing the demo, Dadguy--my game hasn't even shipped yet from Ubi! <img border="0" alt="cry" title="" src="graemlins/cry.gif" />

The journey cloths in my demo only have four feathers, which light up when I complete a puzzle. I have three of them lit now--I'm assuming from what you said that in the full game, there would be seven...

No, there are seven in each age. Seven in the demo as well.

Thinking of the cloth as a HAND, the palm section, including the thumb, will be illuminated with three touches (it illuminates a segment each touch) and then there are four fingers.

So, make no mistake... you must find seven journey cloths to finish the level.

Ok, Dadguy, I think I have it now--thanks. So I'm on the very last one, just have to figure out that slightly cryptic thing that Zandi is saying. I love this method of in-game slight nudges--does it follow all the way through, or is it only at the very beginning...
