I think I'm being led astray ...

I'm trying my best.

Ana

This is great! I was waiting for this one.

This is a fun hog but is there a hint thread already here?
also here is a dumb question when I want to end the game and return to the menu the escape key doesn't work, so what do I use to exit the game?

I am stuck in the beginning at the mayan temple and putting together the picture in the mirror. I think I have it correct and yet they are not saying I do. I keep running out of time on this one. Please can someone take a screen shot of what the face is suppose to look like?

I really like the interaction with objects in a hog and this has alot of them. Graphics are gorgeous in my opinion.

Sherryah, you can post for help here: Hint thread or just ask here. I don't know if there will be a lot of hints needed to start an official group hint thread.

Ana

To exit, click on the orb thingy (top right corner) which brings you to the map and then click menu, then exit.

Fantastic! All these new HOGs from BigFish

Bernie

Misa, didn't try that way to exit game.
Please can you tell me the answer to where I am stuck?

I am still stuck in the beginning at the mayan temple and putting together the picture of the woman in the mirror. I think I have it correct and yet they are not saying I do. I keep running out of time on this one. Can someone please have mercy and tell me what I could be doing wrong?

I am lining up the outline of the helmet and the outline of her face and eyes, eye brows and her braid. There seems to be a part of the puzzle I can't move that is at the far outer ring with what looks like the color of her braid, but that puzzle ring won't move.

I haven't reached that part Sherryah. Have you checked the other thread? Or maybe look through the Gamezebo forum for help.

There is a timer?

Ana

Sherryah
The part you can't nove is in the right place. The others will to. Timer isJust in the puzzles Ana.

Hi Richard
Did you get past the part in the Myan temple where you have to put together the scrambled pieces of the face of the woman?
I really think it looks perfect, I lined up the helmet and face contours, and braid, eyes, eye brows, what else is there?

Can you take a screen shot of the finished puzzle?

If the pieces would just lock in and not move anymore it sure would have helped. What was the hardest piece for you to line up with the rings? Thanks for your help

Sherryah
Once you get the pieces in place they will lock in. Start with the center and once you get it locked in place keep going with the rest. I think you can start anywhere. The eyes are looking streight ahead. Once you get one circle it's easy. I think there are 6 circles.
Richard

I LOVE this game and have been waiting for BF to get it up!!
Love BF!! Best thing that has ever happened to gaming!!!

It actually does lock when you get the piece right. Start with the one beside the locked piece and it will lock when it's correct then move on to the next piece.

For me, the outermost piece is locked and I just moved inward from there.

ETA: Here's a screenshot. Only the middle piece wasn't done yet (it goes to another screen right after you complete it).

Thank you very much Misa and Richard. Misa thanks for the screenshot this will really help me. Also none of my pieces were locking so I know they must not have been correct.

Big hugs to you both from Ireland
Sherryah

I'm loving this. Thanks for leading me astray, Ana

Sherryah, good luck with getting past that puzzle. Remember to start with the one immediately beside the one ring that is already locked and go from there.

Thanks Misa, the puzzle was so easy once I knew the pieces would lock if correct.

Now can someone help me in the Mayan Temple in another part where I am stuck. I really want out of this Temple screen already finished the Indo China screen can't see anything else to do.

I have one piece of a green stone tooth left. Where the 3 little statues are. I opened that secret opening once I fixed the last little statue. but what goes in there?

Also where are the drumsticks to play the drums? I have clicked on everything on this screen it seems and nothing new is coming up. I think I Finished the Indo China screen there doesn't seem to be anything to do there. I have no more clues left and really am stuck. Thanks in advance for whoever reads this help. Sherryah

I love this game. It reminds me of Mortimer Becket. I only hope that this game is a little longer. They should make more of these types of games. I like them so much better than just a straight HOG. It's like doing the puzzles in the MCF games.

I agree Fil this game is great and the interaction with objects is really mind bending but fun.

Update..........
I solved the puzzle where I was stuck with how to play the drums at the Mayan Wall and do not need any help with that. Victory
Dance.

Sherryah, that is great

How did you do it?

fil I loved Mortimer Beckett, now I can't wait to try it!

Glad you are unstuck Sherryah.

Ana

Wow! I just finished Magic Encyclopedia and it was awesome. It definitely reminds me of Mortimer Beckett (a supercharged, expanded and much more difficult Mortimer Beckett.) This was better than Azada and Azada 2. The only timer was on the mini puzzles and there were loads of them to play with. Just when you think you're hopelessly stuck, you find a hot spot in another map location and everything falls into place with a chain reaction of the final missing pieces for all your objects.

It was a long game - and finally glitch free. Increasing difficulty, but not impossible. Nice variety of mini puzzles. I love that when you use up your clues, you can do a simple HOG search for question marks and get more clues. Word of caution though, be sure you've found all the jewels and question marks before you request a hint or the hint will just highlight a jewel or question mark instead of the piece you're searching for. If you can't find all 10 question marks to get more clues, you can just go back to a map location and then request more clues and a different HOG screen pops up.

I can't wait to play it again, but I really need to stretch, rest my eyes and take a nap first.
