Thanks everyone for the help. Sorry I didn't get back sooner....had to work and had not time to get back on. Jobs, why do they always get in the way. : ) Anyway now I know what to do to get started....let's see how far I can get before I need more help. Thanks again!

So far I have seen 3 endings to this game and I havent seen anything yet of going back on the boat and placing runes..I suppose I am selecting the wrong choices at the end...?? Maybe tomorrow I will get it correct...hard game.

If anyone out there is still around that has played this game I could use some help with the puzzle in my room. I just arrived at the Baron's and did a little walking around, but I didn't find much and then was sent to my room. I found the puzzle in the closet but not sure what to do. Any help would be appreciated.

Why don't you have a look around the hallway outside of your room.

Thanks GreyFuss...I think I will. : )

I'm at the piano and trying to play the tune . . . . I'm stuck and know the tune to play, but every combo I try doesn't seem to work. Anyone done this yet?

Thanks MaG! Now I'm stuck at the tomb.

How do I get inside?

I am stuck at the part where i first go to the witche's hut and i am supposed to find the runes for the ingredients, i haven't been able to find any hints in my notes or anywhere so i don't know whether i am missing something.

if I am right you have to read something about the runes in the hut. it's a story and you have to make some choices. if you think that you have the answers, place them correct at the runeboard. one symbol is already placed and you have to fill in the other 5 symbols.

Yeah i figured that one out but i simply can't match the runes with what they mean, i mean i haven't found any clues which might help or i found them but i don't know which they are. Am i supposed to start guessing? I have been going back and forth for hours now without any change. I don't easily lose my patience but i am getting there

The runes btw are:

To the swamp owner at dawn
That the six-eyed monster guards
Where the unborn labourers dwell
Bring her the hoar's treats barefooted
That grew on the wise-man in the green cape of eternity.

The frustrating part is that each time i try this and i get even one wrong she says that the runes look different so i don't know which one is wrong and i have to try all over again.

I don't know how to use the spoiler tag, I'll not spoil the answer for other people.
please MaG, can you help me how to place a spoiler tag here. then I can write down the answer in it.

When you go to the reply (not the quick reply) you should see a spoiler button, click on it and it will take you to an input box, place in there what you want to appear as spoilers and the hide/show option will appear. You can preview your reply to make sure that it worked.

thank you very much for the explanation for using the spoilerbutton.

never mind i got past that lighthouse now i'm hanging on the glif and what ever i do i fall do the sea

did you search Edward's room when you have gotten the pin?

I'm stuck with the birdpuzzle at Mr. Hooke's house. I have read the riddle about those birds in my documentmap but for me I cann't do anything. everytime I try to click at certain birds I die.
I know that I have to click the birds in a certain order.

the hook's house key is in the buttom of the sea and ladder is broken how can i fix it to get in there ?

darn everytime i write something i find it in the game but rite now i dont

a loose plank do the trick for the ladder. if you step away from the housedoor you'll get an eye-icon. search there for the plank.

Thanks margaret!

you're welcome Sue.
at the moment there is nothing for me to do. those pigeons are a real nightmare. I have read the paper about the birds, but this riddle is too difficult for me. then I tried to click every pigeon apart, but I keep dying.
I don't know which keys I have to use for clicking those birds.

perhaps I miss something in my inventory?

Sit tight and wait for more people to wake up and get to their computers Margaret. Since it's a holiday here, members may be sleeping in or getting ready to celebrate the day.

Arghhh! Stuck again!

I'm stuck again too.

I just spoke to the witch outside the tomb and The next scene I'm standing at the entrance of the graveyard and have searched for what to do, but can't find anything.
