Margie, WAKE UP! Get busy girl 'cause I'm gonna need some help real soon. Anxiously awaiting your assistance.

Eyeballs hint:
The 3 eyeballs you collect go in a door lock puzzle (the kitchen door I think). Once you put the eyeballs in the empty sockets, click on the handles at 12, 3, 6 and 9 o'clock.

Garden gate lock (little skeleton):
Once you visit the kitchen, you will notice a little skeleton figure drawn or carved on the left side of screen. Note the position of its arms and legs. You have to move the arms and legs on the door lock to match the diagram.

Somebody please hurry and pass me. I don't want to be in the lead. This house isn't empty.

Nice to see you again Margie, missed you!

I can't get the key from the cat...I'm at a virtual standstill and this point. Guess I've got to accept the fact that I'm terrible at these types of games. I've gotten the wrench, brick, V typewriter key, 2 eyeballs and the ladder so far, but can't pry up the loose board, get the well to work, or cut the rose...please help me.

Thanks,

Doh! Just dawned on me that this is the hints and help thread so I don't have to use spoiler tags.

Yep, the cheese is on the kitchen shelf. Give the cheese to the mouse and then give the mouse to the cat to get a key.

I forget where I found the crowbar, but there's something important under that loose floorboard. Use your ladder to reach the bird's nest above the front door. There's an eyeball in the nest you will need for a door lock puzzle.

Hedge clippers will cut all kinds of stuff, including the rose, but unfortunately you will have to find a glove before you can pick it up.

The rope on the well is driving me nuts. I'm still pondering the sun/moon ying/yang puzzle above the fireplace. Anybody figure it out yet?

Hurray! Margie has arrived just like the cavalry racing over the hill to our rescue. Good to see you Margie and I'm off to Gamezebo to hunt for some more hints.
