I'm at the mini-game "snake" and I don't know how this works. I can't get 3 of anything to line up anywhere. I try HELP but it doesn't help me as I don't seem to understand what it is trying to tell me to do. I hate to give up on this game as I was enjoying it and would greatly like to continue it.

Hi sierramindy

This is what you have to do.

Take notice of the symbol in the shooter.
If you aim at a matchng symbol it will create another one the same next to it in the snake.

For example if your symbol is a pearl- you aim either at one or two pearls in the chain.
Hitting one pearl creates another so there is two in a row, hitting 2 pearls in a row creates 3 and then they disappear.

Keep making matches like that and eventually the all disappear.

If there is nothing on the snake that matches the symbol on the shooter, just misfire it anywhere.

If you fire and hit a non matching symbol you end up creating more.

I hope this helps and makes sense.

Oh joy, oh joy!
BellaRosa, you are a life/game saver, and I thank you so much. I followed your so very excellent instructions and they worked just perfectly, no problem whatsoever. Cleared the path in nothing flat ... and this after trying almost all day yesterday. I kept getting the whole string, over and over, kept seeing 2 symbols but never knew how to get 3 of them. You explained it so well that it took me only a few seconds to clear the snake and progress to the next level. What a great feeling! Especially after all the work I put into it with all that trying and rereading (I don't know how many times) the help in the game. I was feeling so down thinking I would have to quit the game and now I feel so great, thanks to you.

You are most welcome sierramindy,

I had trouble figuring it out too but once you know how it is easier next time you get that bonus game

So glad you are now moving on. Yippee!!

I am stuck on the level where the friends are turned to stone and you have to move the colored circles. I don't understand how to do this. Help!

Carla, I can't find any help via google. Are you still stuck?

Hi carla

With the coloured circles:

You click on adjacent circles to move the tiles around.

The middle tiles you need to put the numbered circles in order
1 at the top, 2 next then 3- that is the middle column.

The 2 rows on eitiher side you put the same colours in the colums- going by colour intensity.
Example put all the blue tiles in the same column- going from light to darkest.
(or is it dark to lightest?) The top circles are fixed I think so it should be obvious which colours go in which columns.

Hope this helps and you have enjoyed the game

Thanks gals,

I am now through it. This game may look simple but it is really a tough game (to get thru each level) as they get harder as you go.

Bella

Carla, what finally did it for you?

Hi Looney,

I did what Bella said to do and it worked. Thanks, Bella

Hi All,
Now I'm stuck at the same place as you were, carlahelp. I do have the numbered stones lined up from top to bottom in the center isle, but I had absolutely no idea what came next. I had glanced at your hints, BellaRosa, and noticed something to do with the colors but I never actually stopped to read what it was all about, so that is what I did now and I think I get the idea okay, so I'm off to try it. This is a fun Match 3, the first I've ever found that I actually like!

Same here Sierramindy,
First match 3 game I ever actually completed - I am not fast enough for timed ones and get bored with untimed ones- this game was just a blast and had me hooked after the first hour.

Hope my hints worked for you and you are nearly there now

Thanks ever so much, BellaRosa,
Your hints worked just great! I'm a lot smarter now about how to do a *snake* if I ever come across another one again.
The end was a blast with a giant tic-tac-toe puzzle that really had me going even though I sensed what I should do. I goofed a bit at the beginning because I thought I had to use the lamps already in the scene and didn't realize all I had to do was click a spot and a lamp would appear. It was a mite easier after that but still took me some time to work things out.
I sure do hope that Cindy does more traveling. I will most surely be looking out for more games in this series.

Bella

What's next Sierra?

I just finished this game. It was a pleasure to play from beginning to end. It took me about 8 hours altogether, I would say.
