i am having trouble with sherlock holmes the awakened. when you are in the temple and sherlock holmes is speaking of the clothing and piece of advertisment , he doesnot say anything about the finger print and when you are checking the left hand, you checkthe needle hole but theres nothing said. i can not go any further . thanks , jeanh

jean,

That's okay, as long as he saw the needle hole on the finger.
If you have any other questions about this game, post on this thread.
Be sure to check all the active spots in that room and in the body. Look close at all the items that you picked up.

im also in temple and have done every thing and canot get back to holmes place . i have a walkthrough to follow thanks jean1

jean,

Please stay with your original thread. It helps us follow your gameplay and see the help given. You can find your postings in your My Profile found at My Place. Thanks for your cooperation.

As for the Temple part of the game, you have to click on all active spots, check all the items in your inventory and look close at them or the game will not proceed. This will also be true at a later part of the game at the mansion.

So go around again click on the walls, the floors, take all items available, check all those items in inventory, read the documents. Then click on the base of the altar. Keep us posted.

i'm still stuck in the temple. i checked all the walls at the drawings,beds. ive checked the pelican thing- picked up the coal. checked the black mark on the floor-checked the cloths- got the advertisment. i found about the finger print from portfolio.. i checked the work bench and collected things then i went up the stairs to the body.watson said somthing abouthe horrors..i checked the neck- the right hand and the eye thing went away. i checked the left hand-looked at the punctures but nothing was said. i then picked up the statue - made copy with paper and coal. jean

i,m sorry to be a pain but realy would love to finish this game .jean

Did you look at things in your inventory that you've grabbed in this area? Did you check and see the powder residue on the work table to the left of the altar?
Did you click on a pitcher on the side table to see what was in it?

Sue

yes i did jean

Jean I'm sorry but my best suggestion is to repeat every step that you've done here in this area against the walkthrough. That's the only way you will know that you have literally looked/taken everything you need.

Sue

Hi
I have the hook in the broken screen window and I have been trying to get a hot spot for a very long time. Any suggestions?
(behind holmes,or to Left or Right??)
Thanks

Lisa I just swung the hook back and forth until it finally latched on and lifted the bar. Sorry, I know that is not much help.

Sue

My hook is stuck up in the window, he just keeps saying he is fishing when I put my curser on the rope. Is there a way to get the hook back?
Thanks

Lisa,

Did you get Watson to look at the inside of that building where the hook was thrown? He should clean a window at the side of the building.
He should see where that hook is located and that is how you do the puzzle.

Thank you, I'll give it a try

MaG,
Thank you for your help,what would we boomers do without you!

That's great that you got through. Enjoy this wonderful game. I really liked it.

hi there. ive been to see champagne to get a boat-gave him the bottle of champagne and he gave me the planks and the lantern.i then went back to french quarters.in the walkthrough it says to type raccoon in as either Raccoon or raccoon but on my keyboard it will only type capital letters what is the matter ? thanks, jean

Edit:

I forgot to tell y ou capitals was not expected. thanks, jean

Jean I assume you mean that the word raccoon was not accepted? See if your caps lock key is on please. It should take the word without difficulty. What happened after you clicked on enter? Check your spelling of the word also please.
Please don't stack posts, use the edit button instead.
Thank you

Sue

sorry texaslady! i'm new at this and 70. my cap locks are working off and on when i'm off the game but when i'm on the game it only types capital letters and holmes won't accept it. thanks jean

Hi Jean,

Please double check that your keyboard is secure where it is connected to your computer.
Also be sure that when you type in raccoon or racoon that you press the enter key after doing so.
Try also typing the word after you press once the Caps lock. Then try again if it failed to press it twice before typing the word. Keep us posted.

i'm still having trouble with my key board inthe quiz at the arneson house. i can not type any thing other than capital letters. i figure if i want to finish this game ,i'll need a saved game and then i'm not sure what to do with it.. HELP! thanks , jean

What did you have to do to get the raccoon part accepted Jean?

Sue

hi . it was never accepted, texaslady i'm sorry to say. jean

Jean is your game patched?

Sue

i' tried to down load a patch . it did not seem to do any good.jean

Okay, let's backtrack a bit please. You managed to trigger the quiz where you needed the word raccoon to be entered correct? And you've managed to trigger a second quiz without solving the first one?

Sue

Did you have any problem answering the quiz when you were at Baker St. still?
