Hello everyone and Happy New Year!

I'm thoroughly enjoying the The Game Maker – thank you Mikael! I can't solve the telephone code using the figurines along the Almyra Path. The phone icons appear to be a pig, lady(bug), snake and dog.

I tried their order from first sighted to last, then in reverse order. I also tried all 24 combinations taken 4 at a time – still no luck. Does anybody have the exact answer? Thanks.

The easiest way is to just look in the hints. After looking at I think just some of the animals on the trail, it will say the correct order.

Thank you Kim!

The hint says "I must observe the various figurines along the path" and nothing more, even after I've been up and down the path several times, using the hotspots in every direction. The hint never changes. I've observed every figurine.

Also, none of the hints I've checked have given me a direct solution. If anyone knows the solution to this, it would be most appreciated.

OK, found a save near it. So the only thing I had to do to get the hints to show, was look at the pig in closeup.
That is the last probably animal along the path.
But anyway, the hints then say: Cobra, Dog, Ladybug, and Pig.

Thanks Kim. I went back to a previous save and started the area over, choosing the figurines. I had clicked on the pig all times but not in the order of the solution. This time I clicked them in order and entered them in the phone and made it through.

Great game! I must say that the game design and mechanics are flawless. Mikael covers all bases when designing a game.

I'm looking forward to playing the other Carol Reed Mysteries I purchase on 1/1/23, starting with Remedy.

I don't know if you will see this Drummerboy, but it sounds like you were only looking at the left page of the Journal which shows the "objective". To get the "hint" to show on the right page you have to click on the "objective". (For future reference when you play the other games.)

That's a really good point. I didn't think of that. So even if drummerboy doesn't see this, I did and if I can just remember it then it might help if anyone else asks. =)

Thanks for the tip OB. I did use the hint and clicked on it. Nothing showed.

What I did was restore a previous save and clicked on everything I could, then the hint appeared. By this time I knew the order after several (failed) attempts beforehand. Game was thoroughly enjoyable.

Finished Remedy, Hope Springs Eternal; now on to Time Stand Still.

Oh Time Stand Still is one of my absolute favourites. I think it's time to play them all again from the start like you're doing =)
