Just an FYI, there are a lot of glitches in this game. People who bought the game while it was in beta mode, could not get past the location in Africa. In Africa, there's a sliding puzzle in which you need to recreate the picture. The only problem is that the tiles that you need to swap do not appear, so all you get is a black space in the middle of the puzzle.

Since the game was released you can get past Africa but others get stuck in the Scythian Burial Grounds. In that location you need to match identical signs and the board appears blank as well.

Unfortunately even if the game worked for you with the trial time, it is no guarantee that you'll be able to complete the game.

If the game is this buggy, maybe Big Fish should wait until the glitches are fixed before offering it.

Just finished playing the whole hour on the demo and didn't have any trouble with it. Sent a e-mail to BF and asked when they will be getting the game.

I just saw a user review at Gamezebo (from August 23) that said Alawar had released a patched version. Has anyone tried this new version? I'm interested to know if the problems are solved.

I downloaded the patched game and the problems were solved. I finished the game and it was pretty good.

Oh, that's good news! I'll be waiting for it to hit BFG. I liked the few minutes of what I played of the demo.

MEBENNUI......tickle the nose of the person on the right who wants to sneeze, with the branch. He sneezes then on his tongue appears the last piece of the symbol on the left lower box. When that symbol (a mirror) is finished place it on top of the box next to the sneezer. What will appear will be the symbols to press for the solution to the nine box puzzle. I hope this helps.

Isn't it great that there's always a Boomer out there somewhere who has the answer to our questions?

Hi mebennui wave Nice to meet you. What an unusual name. Is there a story there? Do we have another hopelessly addicted gamer in our midst? The more the merrier.

Now I'm in a spot I can't get out of...I am in Egypt and have a hand and a staff also in the tomb. I can see where the hand goes but it will not stay put it keeps flopping back to inventory. I have no items yet to pick up and I have solved the lazer puzzle. Can someone please give me a jump start on this one. Thank you to anyone who can help.

I went away and when I came back I got it right. Headed to Africa now. What I found is that you need to put the point of the arrow on the exact spot for the object. Thanks for the consideration. I may be back....hope I don't get into too much trouble.

I have been defeated....I had the mirror together-but I can't make it sit on top of the building-it won't stay put. Nothing happens to indicate what the answer to the puzzle may be....I may have to purchase the game just to have time to figure it out! insane

I'm sorry mebennui, If it gets to BigFish soon I'll play and see if I can get you unstuck. It may be awhile though. lol

Stuck in Oasis/Graveyard. I have what appears to be one piece of the shield and one on the lightning rod on the Oasis location.
On the Graveyard I am missing again what appears to be one piece each for the matches, cross and hand. I suspect each missing piece will lead to the others. My concern is am I correct in my assumption that one will lead to the other or is this a glitch?
The hints tell me all are hidden. I don't see any additional mini-games, I have completed several. Could someone point me in a direction on this? I don't find any referances to this position or any walkthrus or hints elsewhere......

Thank you for any answers you can provide.
