You did better than I did with the morphs, Ana. smile

Darleen, if you like adventure games AND HOGs, then I believe you will enjoy this game very much indeed. For me, the game was a very happy combination of both, and it had my complete attention from start to finish. smile

I went back the last couple hours and scoured each scene to find the ones I missed. I finally gave up and finished the last scene. As much as I was tempted to cheat, I decided I'd replay and hopefully catch them the second time around. lol

I just finished the game without the guide or WT. Interesting story and the puzzles were well done. I am just mad at myself, found 40 morphs and only played one bonus level. Aside from that, the game was really well done and my favorite I think in the series. Bravo BFG bravo

How did you get a bonus level ramona? I don't think I got any, I thought it was because I missed 5 morphs?

I thought the bonus level is the secret room.

I did the barrel but no result.

Darlene - No, I really needed the walkthrough, but it's so easy when the W/T is in the game itself. I loved this game. Teddo

Margie has a wonderful thread at BFG forums that I used like a check list to see if I got it all. I used it after 11 hours of going through the first time as carefully as I could so the second time I could pick up the rest. Maybe this will help

Bonus level thread by MargieB

Thanks Margie!! thanks


So many games, so little time....

I've been following the thread on this game and my hands are itching to get started. I should have bought the collector's edition, but since I've waited this long, I'm determined to wait for the regular edition to be released. It's torture!

I made 4 words on the barrel in the basement opened by the 2 Golden Felixes.

But I guess not the correct 4 words?
Click to reveal..
[/spoiler]I have murder ravens and then bottom to top I have sleuth avenge written upsidedown [spoiler]


Can someone please tell me the correct 4 words before I go nuts?

I am also missing one tape crazy I think I remember seeing a list of where they were but now I can't even find the list and I've been through all the locations several times looking for the last tape.

Please help me.

They should not be upside, rotate till you can read them all straight,

Margies walkthrough added in first post.

You will find the last tape (#9) at the end.

I just re-read the gamezebo w/t and this is the puzzle showing in that w/t.

But I still can't find the missing video cry

I am so close and yet so far from the ending. Can't go forth until I find the missing video.

*sigh*

9?? I know I still have one blank space in the crime computer!

tomorrow is another day. thanks ana!

Linda, I meant the 9th space for the tapes. It's sway at the end. I added Margies walkthrough in the first link, maybe that'll help.

Ana, I downloaded Margie's w/t - what I do is go to the "main menu" and then hit my windows key so I can check the w/t without having to leave the game.

I read pretty much through it and I believe I found all the videos so I don't know why I still have a blank spot. I need to see if I get the solution for the puzzle before the last area - if not, I might just use the solution as posted in the w/t.

The good news, in all my wandering looking for the missing video I did find more morphs! Still missing about a dozen of them too!

Great game thumbsup, not sorry I bought the special edition at all. And I finally figured what to do with that 'stupid' wheel puzzle - if I turn everything one turn all 4 words should be righted! That was also in Margie's w/t but I was too tired to understand completely and went 2 turns, lol.

**edited: I finished the game! Do I have to replay the entire game to hear the message?
I have no idea how long it took because that information was lost when I won? Is there anyway to find that out before I must start playing again please?

I am really thrilled to learn there WILL be another MCF coming!!

The BF techs are telling me I don't have enough ram to play this game.... sheesh my computer which was very expensive is only 2 yrs old. How often do you need to buy a new one?

t looks like my system currently has 894MB RAM while this game works best with at least 1280 MB.

I'm going to have to ask for ram for Christmas.

Can you add memory to your system NYLady? If you have a expensive system only 2 years old, you should be able to upgrade the memory.

I currently have 1.5 gb and my computer is 4 years old - I did upgrade it after about a year.

Pop over to the Tech Forum and someone there should be able to tell you. It really was easy to change it out - you can be walked through it the same way I was.

Good Luck!

My son said he would upgrade my computer as a Christmas gift, at my suggestion. ;0

I have 1.0 gb but I guess you never do use it all.
What gets me mad is that I told the guy at Best Buy I wanted a computer with good gaming capabilities... maybe he thought I played tic-tac-toe.

2 years ago it might have been enough. Today it isn't.

Ask your son to upgrade you to 2gb if at all possible. (more if your computer can handle it.) You will find you will use the extra in no time at all and it has gotten a lot cheaper.

I actually bought 4gb for less than I paid for the 1.5 but it runs hot and I haven't had the time to look for another fan. Sounds like a good Xmas gift to me from me think
