Whimsical: That was me on Question 1. I think it was the second number written for a clue. I called them all, so I'm not positive. Anyway, when the call goes through a woman answers "Big Fish Games, UK" and then something about Mystery Case Files #6 but the phone develops static just as she is saying the name of the game. Did you click the phone receiver for a dial tone before you dialed each number?

I didn't see any hidden meanings in the prose at the end other than it was cute.

Scarlet:

*smacks head* Oh, you meant dial them on the phone in the game! I thought you were talking about rl. That's why I asked you to post it; cause I wasn't willing to run up my rl bill by dialing random strangers.

As for the paragraph, if it doesn't mean anything I'd like BF Guy to confirm that. I'm getting obsessed, because:



I really think it means something, but if it doesn't, can we get BFG Guy to tell me so I stop beating my head against the wall?

Good Lord, Whimsical - you're one of "them".

Try the Big Fish Community Forum to meet all the other Ravenhearst experts who can ferret out the many clues and nuances in this story line. I'm just here for the party. However I did enjoy reading their observations and theories leading up to the release of RtR.

I believe you're onto something with the closing prose. Be sure to come back and let us know when you get it figured out. I'm sure Big Fish Guy is thrilled you noticed it because he just loves to tease us all with his riddles.

Keep beating your head, as it probably does mean something, but I do not honestly know. We give the creative folks in our game studios complete autonomy to do as they please and I am often as surprised as you all are! There will of course be an MCF 6, but I have no idea as to the name or what it will be about, but trust me when I say, that if I do find out, I will be sure to tease and torture all of you to try to guess it.

Love this game!! The only problem is I am playing it on a borrowed computer while mine was in the shop. I could not wait. Now I have to take it off this computer to return it on Monday, so I have to finish the game first or start all over again.

(Not to worry BFG, I will uninstall on this computer prior to returning it.)

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and many things for which to be Thankful!!!

I can't wait!
I am still in the midst of playing but don't want it to end, so I am savoring each moment. Big Kudos to you and your team!

I got to the end puzzle and there is a glitch.
The last puzzle does not recognized that I placed all that are needed in the puzzle and would not let me finish. I reported it already.
What a waste of time.

I stayed up until 5 this morning to finish. This was a a great game.I don't know if this was mentioned but did anyone have the cursor move around in a circle if there were too many clicks on the wrong items. It spooked me and I thought it was a nice touch. This one is definitely the best HOG I have ever played.

Oh no MaG! I am so sorry. Are you going to replay it?

Ramona, I saw the curser discussed on the hints thread I think. Glad you enjoyed it!

Ana

Maybe, when I have more time.

MaG--oh, no--that stinks!

I wondered--was it the Because it didn't work for me the first few times I tried it--I kept leaving and wandering around looking for some trigger I missed. Each time I left the room, the puzzle reset, and eventually it worked. Not sure if that was how it was supposed to be, or if I had the same/similar bug? If so, maybe my weird workaround (leave the room, the puzzle resets, go back and try again) would work for you, too? When you have time, and the inclination, I mean.

SS MaG... I skipped it.

Well, finished the game I started out not liking and ended up loving it. I should go back and edit that post.

I loved the HOG parts the best, I'm not too good at the puzzles... some were easy and some where impossible, thankfully you can skip most of them.

I did need a few peeks at the WT.

No -



I presume it will open the door and it's the end.
It can not be skipped.

That stinks.

Dang. Hopefully when they fix the bug, you'll be able to pick up where you left off! *crosses fingers*

Anyone notice the Big Fish Games sign in the store?

Ana

MaG, do you have ten hearts plus the Gold one in the center?

Thanks to Whimsical, I started beating my head against the wall too. I copied the prose when I finished the game the second time. This is what it says:



This is what it means:

I love the way that Victor looked like Father Christmas but he was SO EVIL

Finally finished MCF:Return to Ravenhearst. Took me over 10 hours but what a wonderful game. Thank you Big Fish and many, many thanks to Margie B at gamezebo. Without the walkthrough I would have never been able to finish it. Had a problem finding the heart that was supposed to be engraved by the front door, but finally went to another scene in the house and found it. May be that not all the clues are in the same place each time. Anyway, I loved the game, well worth the money and I will play it again and again. Happy gamming!!!

I'm late in the game but only just starting this now. It's been a busy week and I wanted to replay Ravenhearst first.

So far, I am LOVING this game!

I just finished this game and it is wonderful love the creepy feeling your being watched as you solve things. When you completed a area I expected any moment that something or someone would jump out at you. Music and effects where great this game is the best I played in a long time. Now I have to go back and replay it again. It took me 16 hours to play as I did not want to rush this thrilling spooky game. Could not stop playing it once I had it going.

I finished this game last night. It is a Great game, one of the best I have played. I had to skip about four puzzles which didn't do my time any good. I play for enjoyment not for speed. The relaxed mode was just perfect. I will wait for the next one, hopefully not too long. BFG outdid themselves. Thank you BFG team.

You guys are just too fast for me!

Oh MaG! I hope your glitch can be fixed!

Maybe if you uninstall and install the game again. I have found that they tend to hold your place for you even after uninstalling.

I hope you can finish!

Played all day (literally) and finished it. It was incredible with top-notch production values. I think it was a great mix of seek and find, puzzles and adventure and I really like the live actors in it. It was also nice to see "MCF fans rule!" at the end of the credits.

Definitely my favourite game of 2008 and will be replayed many times.

BFG-Guy, your design, development and production teams really outdid themselves! I hope you threw them a great launch party!
